If the Rockets miss the Playoffs....lmfao. Christ.
Harden will never live that shit down
Just imagine if last year's MVP can't even make it into the playoffs even with Chris Paul helping him. The guy already has a pretty divisive reputation because of his sometimes awful effort on defense and his foul fishing.
But I seriously can't tell if this is a playoff team. Sometimes they can hang with good teams and blow out bad teams and sometimes they look like the Phoenix Suns. Doing some basic math, I think there are 5 locks (Warriors, Thunder, Nuggets, Lakers, Clippers), 3 probables (Timberwolves, Grizzlies, Blazers) and a whole bunch of really questionables IMHO. And I just don't think this year's Rockets are playing consistent enough to steal a playoff spot from the Timberwolves, Grizzlies or Blazers let alone beat out wild card teams like the Kings or Mavs who are playing with a lot of effort.
