I have always liked tracy Mcgrady and i am glad that he is finally getting some love from the media. However, rick adelman is the true force behind the rockets win streak and he has done a phenominal job of getting his players to buy into his system. Alas, starting tonite his team will run into something that it has not faced in their streak to date...and that is a team that is both physically and mentally better than them.
Great chemistry and good coaching can make up for alot in competitive sports but what it cannot cover up is when a team has better talent and is able to match your chemistry and coaching. one thing to remember, boston is still the best defensive team in the game and has dominated the western conference this year. Once their streak is broken the air of invincibilty and euphoria will vanish. Games against the hornets, warriors and suns in succession will not allow them time to re-gather themselves against equal or lesser competition. These teams are mostly injury free, have alot to play for and have been consistently very good all season even without a miraculous and unpredictable winning streak. these four games are also a pair of back to backs and that is how they will lose them, back to back to back to back.
Houstin begins a new streak tonight.
