They are playing very well w/o Yao Ming and are about a game out for the 3 seed. Do you think if Yao continues to play like an MVP when he returns the Rockets are contenders?

The only elite team the Rockets haven't beaten at least once this year is the Suns. They cremated the Mavericks in the first game when Yao was still there. They gave away the last game to the Mavericks. They've beaten the Spurs twice at home. What more can I say? They will definitely make it to the playoffs, and there's no reason they shouldn't be the 3rd seed in the West. If they win the championship this year, it will be the most awesome thing in the world since they went half the season without Yao. I just love our team, and I hope Yao gets back to his MVP form quickly. Go Rockets!

Since Yao has been out forever, and T Mac has missed some games I think they have done very well

T-Mac is on now. If Yao is on when he comes back, and with 60-year-old Dikembe 'Old Man of the Mountain' Mutombo playing like a 28-year-old, plus the great play of Battier, who is like a better Bruce Bowen, I want to see them win it all. If they can get out of the West, then they are the champs. There's no one in the East.

Dangerous! They are one of the dark horses and I'd sure don't want to be paired with them in the first round of the playoffs.
