[SI.com] Power Rankings - Rockets #6 in NBA 

Post#1 » by Rocketsterps » Tue Jan 29, 2008 7:07 pm

Houston Rockets
They missed Yao Ming (upper respiratory infection) in Sunday's home loss to the Jazz that snapped their four-game winning streak. But overall they've won nine of 12 games, thanks in large part to a defense that has yielded more than 100 points just twice in that span.

Wow, that's impressive. But hell yes, right now we are one of better teams in the NBA. Dallasis better but for example Blazers are not that good, Spurs suck, etc.

Even Van Gundy said: 'Utah and Houston will make playoffs, I don't know who will come out but I'm sure those two will make playoffs'

While I like the recognition the Rockets are getting, those are some terrible rankings.

Dumb. We are in the teens. We are not that good.

I don't care about power rankings. I care about our record and getting into the playoffs.
