    We got another tough tough game on Sat.

    Hornets at home - you know they will be coming after us trying to break our streak. If we can just get past them, I think we win our next 3

    Nets, Hawks, Bobcats

    Then we run into the buzzsaw week. I can't see us going through this unscathed.

    Lakers, Celtics, Hornets, Warriors, Suns

    Take it one game at a time. 21 is a definite possibility though. Imagine the hype of that Lakers game if we're still streaking going into that one. And taking a look at the Spurs' upcoming schedule, 1st place in the entire Western Conference could also be at stake in that game. :eek:

    Depende on how you word it; 5th longest, but 6 strings were better.

    The Rockets really do look to have a legitimate shot at the #2 all-time streak.

    And if they do that... and win Sunday night against the Lakers, my head just may explode. :D

    Every team to have a 18 game win streak has gone to conference finals. Most have been to the finals and won.

    You forgot to mention that 11 of our wins were with YAO. We only won 6 straight without him, its a big difference. I would of LOVE our chances had yao stayed healthy. Guess we'll just have to see.
