    The Rockets are sitting at 27-28
    One Game out of 8th

    IMO 17 wins might get them to the 8th spot unless everyone above them just stop losing

    Can this team go 17-10 (44-38)

    I don't know, this team has 14-13 or 13-14 written all over it. :( Maybe worse.

    I'm just ready for this season to end.

    Being 6th, 7th, or 8th seed isn't looking that desirable.

    Can't say until we see our group after the break. But March is really hard for us. We will only play 3 sub-500 teams in that month.

    I'm going for 11-16 but only because we have an easy April with the team as-is.

    The only sure to be a part of this team after next week is Harden.
    With only this info it's impossible to make predictions.

    It depends. How many of them aren't real contenders?

    I voted 10-14, but the honest answer is I simply don't care.

    If we trade Howard it will be very ugly

    A part of me was wondering about this
    If we don't make the playoffs. . . . then we keep our draft pick
    AND the trade is for second rounders
    The issue is . .. our 1st rounders are not all that grand

    Agreed. The worst thing would be they put up a good fight as a 7th or 8th seed in the playoffs against GSW or Spurs and lose. Then Morey, players and fans would get false impression that they are good enough.

    How many? I don't know, but a I hope very few. I really want to keep that first round draft pick.

    After watching the Texans get embarrassed in the first round of the playoffs. I really don't want to watch the Rockets get demolished by the Warriors or the Spurs.

    This. If we trade Howard and start Capela, we are going to be a lotto team.
