    With the Clippers loss, could the Rockets be hearing the tumble of the lottery ping pong balls in their future???

    I'll answer this with one word: no.

    I hope so. If there are any extra, please give a pair to Kelvin Cato. He seems to have lost his.

    If only tanking would help! Unlike last year when tanking would have gotten us somewhere, this year we'll have to lose a lot of games to gain any ground. We'll have to lose 3 more games than Seattle to move up even one spot. Even if Seattle finished an optimistic 7-4, the Rockets would have to finish 6-7 to overtake them.

    If we tanked all 13 remaining games, we'd get no better than 8th place, and probably a good deal worse than that considering everybody between us and 8th place is playing .500 ball or worse. I expect that if we lost our last 13 games, we'd pick 11th (ahead of Denver and Seattle) -- that's how bad the Eastern Conference is.
