2008 Rockets Vs. 2013 Heat: Who Had the Harder Run to 22 Wins?

[Brandsdale]

Tracy McGrady says Houston Rockets' 22-game streak 'a lot harder' to achieve than Miami Heat's - ESPN

This may be a little late but

what Houston did in 08' was . Having your star Center injured at 12 games and still keep railing on with a 41year old backup Mutumbo that block gawd.

even with TMac at his peak it pains me that these nikkas got outed first round playoffs

You think Miami had it harder? Come chime on it

To me it's not about who had it harder. That rockets team wasn't going no fukking where, so its a fluke. The Heat though have a chance to break the all-time streak and win the title and go on to be one of the all-time great teams. shyt is special and I'm watching every game like

when you're the target every night, it is harder in the Heat's case. But you can say the same for the Rockets during that time as well. You can't tell me that nikkaz didn't want to be the ones to end that streak versus them either.

Heat are at 24 now...we had this debate when they were at 22...but obviously the Heats is more impressive since they continued it beyond 22

That's what I'm sayin

I remember when Miami's game two weeks back in Orlando and Tobias Harris had that face thinking "Imma be the one to end this reign"
Then Lebron drove his ass in the paint with seconds left and won the game by 2

What's funny is that even with that streak NOBODY thought Houston had a shot to win it all.

 

[Da_Eggman]

Heat are defending champs and every team is gunning for team ever game vs them is there finals

 

[ManBearPig]

24 is a greater number than 22 isnt it?

like saying which team would win... the squad that scored 100 or the one with 96?

exactly, that Houston win streak is irrelevant now

All anyone has to do is go back and look at the schedule, the best teams they beat were the Lakers and Hornets, and the Lakers were without Pau Gasol for that game.

And most importantly, 15 of their 22 wins were at home, while 12 of the Heat's 24 have been on the road.

Winning 22 games in a row isn't a "fluke".

The thread is about who had it harder UP TO 22 wins
