Sun 20 vs Utah Wed 23 vs Golden State Sun 27 @ Miami Tue 29 @ New Jersey Wed 30 @ Philadelphia Fri 01 vs San Antonio Sun 03 vs Atlanta Tue 05 vs Sacramento Wed 06 @ New Orleans Sat 09 vs LA Clippers Mon 11 vs Dallas Wed 13 @ Minnesota Red = teams with better records We're going to need around 45 games to get in, meaning we need to win 9 of our games. We have 7 games we should win and we're going to need to pull out at least 2 upsets, going to be tough but we can do it with our recent play.

Dwight makes the biggest defensive impact and is the best rim protector but he's miles behind Chuck Hayes in actual post up defense.

One more thing, Patterson has to be one of the most humble players in the league. I don't think he would mind another season behind Scola but if the Rockets do want Patrick to develop his game further he's going to need Luis' minutes.

Depends whether Houston is looking to rebuild or continue to be a low playoff seed. The trades for Thabeet, Dragic and the two picks make me feel like Morey is leaning toward rebuilding but I can't be too sure with Daryl Morey. Personally I think the Rockets will certainly entertain trade offers for Scola, if a good offer is on the table I think they will take it especially if its for a small forward or center. Patterson's trade value has to be sky high right now, dude looks like he's going to be a top 5 player in this draft class and already has the leadership and personality that a lot of teams are going to want in their locker rooms. Houston seemed very reluctant to trade Patterson though even if it was for Carmelo Anthony. My verdict is that Scola will likely go before Patterson and there actually is a decent chance he does get moved. Potentially for picks and cap space as the Rockets could gun for the strong 2012 free agency class although that highly depends on the CBA.

HUGE win for us, we really needed this as the playoff chase was looking bleak for us just a couple of days ago. Patterson has been terrific in all his starts, great all-around player.

Here we go Rockets fans, the end of the regular season is only a couple of weeks away. With the big win tonight over the Celtics, the Rockets are now only 1.5 games back of the Memphis Grizzlies for the 8th seed. With our upcoming schedule, what do you think are chances are of catching up to them? If we do make the playoffs, we would likely end up facing the Spurs as the Blazers and Hornets are too far ahead of us to catch. Do you think Houston could give the Spurs a run for their money? If the Rockets somehow do miss the playoffs for the 2nd year in a row, we will likely be picking either 13th or 14th again this season. Who would like Morey to pick up there? We could easily move up a couple slots by packaging our lottery pick along with the Magic's.

New web series with Kiefer Sutherland and John Hurt. Already looks better than A LOT of tv shows. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MVcSczfLn48

[expletive] yeah go Longhorns.

The Rock should be higher than #5 and Chris Jericho and Kurt Angle are WAY too low. Randy Orton and John Cena shouldn't even be on the list, so many guys from the Attitude Era were much better wrestlers.

Eh I don't really care because he is still the best player we ever had since Hakeem.

13 out of 16, good for #2 in the OTR league. :glasses:

Love this show.

That Richmond win was HUGE for me. Go BYU.

[expletive]ing Temple. 2 out of 4 now.

Whoops I misread my bracket, I had them till Sweet 16 too. I had Kansas taking them out.

Well [expletive], I just checked my bracket and I had Louisville going to the Elite 8.

What the hell? Dammit I was SO close to picking Morehead state. Ugh.

I might be the only guy here that never heard of him but... RIP.

2-0 so far. Good start, now Louisville and Penn State need to close out.

Penn State out to an early 9 point lead.

Another strong performance from Marcus Thornton. Dude has been on fire since getting into the starting lineup.

Holy crap 40 points from CJ Miles? I didn't know he had it in him.

Damn Houston really needed New Orleans to lose but Chris Paul ruined any chances of that.

19 points for Jeff Green, the Celtics are going to need this kind of play from him come playoff time.
