Seven straight wins for the Houston Rockets. In a favorable 4 vs. 5 matchup with the Lakers in the first round.
In fact the Rockets can still end up with the 4th seed and have the home court advantage against the Lakers.



Rockets are dominating the points in the paint. In the playoffs that will be huge. Getting a lot of easy scoring opportunities.
The Rockets are now 16-4 when Reed Sheppard starts at point guard. That translates to a 66-win pace if over a full season.

Rockets still have no shot of beating 2 of Thunder, Spurs, and/or Nuggets

Did I just drop $900 on 76ers potential first round and first game tix center court like 10 rows back when they were released today? Yes

Are they also fucked without Embiid and if they get to that game will they likely get shit on? Also yes.

So glad they announced his surgery an hour after tickets went on sale 🙄

76ers vs Magic play in for 7th seed on Tuesday.

76ers win and they're gonna get the Celtics in the first round. Without Embiid available. RIP :cry:

Game 1 of the Rockets at Lakers playoff series tips off on Saturday night. 8:30 PM Eastern on ABC.
Let's go guys!! It's been forever since I've seen the Houston Rockets advance past the first round. 🚀

Time for Alperen Sengun to dominate. Bloody and intense Sengun. Also Amen Thompson can take over the series.
Kevin Durant will do his thing. If Reed Sheppard and Jabari Smith Jr. knock down those open threes. Rockets got this!!

Worry about the Raptors led by Brandon Ingram and the special needs class guy.

76ers

Without Embiid though. At least without him for the first several games.
