next 6 games = EASIEST 6 GAME STRECH OF THE SEASON 

Post#1 » by rocketsballin » Sun Feb 28, 2010 8:27 am

01 - vs raptors
03 - vs kings
06 - @ twolves
07 - @ pistons
09 - @ wizards
13 - vs nets

im not saying these are automatic wins, there's no such thing as that for houston this season, BUT, this is our absolute last chance at the playoffs . march is a tough month and april has only 3 home games. these next 6 games are KEY for any chance at the playoffs. 5 out of 6, AT LEAST 4 wins

with martin slowly getting his shot back, players returning from injury, rotations being figured out, these games can be a great start for a playoff hunt. if all goes well, rockets can build great chemistry and be prepared for the rest of the season .

kevin martin is HUGE for this to happen. if he continues to struggle or be inconsistent, we are getting a 13/14 lottery pick


how does everyone else feel about this 6 game strech?

I have doubts against the Raptors, Kings, and even the Wiz... The Pistons might even have a chance :cry: .

playoffs are meaningless at this point. We dont even have a center, lost a huge defensive/offensive presence w/landry. Top 1-2 team who we'll be matched up against if we make the playoffs will beat us easily.

Just enjoy the show. Who cares about the standings. If we get a lottery pick. Good. If we make the playoffs, amazing.

i can argue with his last two gmaes martin is way more of an offensive lift than landry. mostly just on the ability to put the opposing team in the bonus like it aint no thing.

that said i agree we would get smoked in the playoffs. lottery pick just does so much more for me than watching artest getting the better of the rockets organization through the media if we got the 8 seed.

We should be able to snatch all those games, but it seems unlikely that we bring that intensity for all six of those games.

Raps fan here. Ya, Bosh is out, didn't even make the road trip.

Raptors are struggling with out him, especially on the road.

The Rockets should win all of them, but I say that they'll win 5 of the 6. I just hope that they don't lose to the Kings. I want to see Martin score a career high against that team.

These should be winnable games.

Obviously I'm concerned.

I just hope that we don't get any big leads. If we do then we're doomed! :lol:

Bosh is out for the houston game. I wouldn't worry if I were you guys, Raps without Bosh is laughable.
