    Welp. A healthy Dwight in the paint makes it a lot easier to start Jet at PG at least.

    Here's someone that was a part of two championship teams and still doesn't understand what makes a team playoff better. Dam shame. Asik can't hold players one on one on a island defensively and Parsons is just inconsistent. Neither of these players are well rounded all around in terms of what you need as starters for playoff pressure basketball. Parsons is a good sixth man and Asik is a backup unless he's starting for the Chicago Bulls in 90's. The team this year is way more playoff ready then last year.

    Haha nice.... we were never endangered to miss that, the question was which seed.

    I like being 2nd or 3rd seed.

    Agreed. Also the additions we made really gave us the experience we needed. Ariza, terry, and brewer all have rings. H&H have been to the finals before. Smith has experience from being on those old hawk teams. It should be really interesting to see how things pan out. Hopeful everyone is healthy.

    With our two true pf out dmo and tjones, thank you Detroit for giving us Josh Smith. That dude stepped it up when we needed it. If he wasn't there today it would had been ariza at pf Dorsey at center when Dwight sits.

    We are essentially tied for #2 seat, but only +3 games ahead of #6.

    With 10 games left, 2 against Spurs, 1 against Mav, still up in the air.

    This season has been a huge F-U to all of the Morey haters, Dallas worshippers and Mchale bashers who were coming out in full force at the start of the season.

    At the end of the day the Rox ended up having the best offseason additions (Ariza) and mid season acquisitions (JSmith) which resulted in a top 3 record despite losing Dwight for 80% of the season.

    1/2 game behind memphis now for division lead
    need to watch out for clippers
    they have the tie-break against us
    if we can't win southwest division and our record tie with clippers
    they will have the 3rd seed and us with 5th seed
    i know we will still have home court if our record is better than portland
    but i rather face dallas in first round

    I love to troll other team forums and the Spurs want no part of the Rockets or the Grizzles in the playoffs. As for the Mavericks, those pricks are acting like that beat down they got from the Spurs tonight is a way to play the Rockets in the first round. I can't stand the Mavericks and hope we play them in the first round and beat the hell of them. On another note, I want the Rockets to go all the way and if they don't, I will root for the Spurs.
