Talent wise it's the Dallas that had the edge, Rockets are just lucky to have a winning streak and still close with the Warriors in replacing them int he 10. But although the Rockets have improve, we cannot deny that the Dallas have been playing their best season so far, so a lose to this hot team is not surprising. In fact, I still think that they will not past first round in case they'll make it to the playoffs, who would they play? The Nuggets? They can't beat the defending champ, but they will lucky if they'll face the OKC as they are also a young team.

Let me remind you that the Rockets were total underdogs in previous seasons. Maybe the Rockets' recent winning streak was just luck, but I think it's fair to say that this team is gradually progressing. Even if the Rockets can't dislodge the Warriors from the 10th spot in the standings, it will still be a good result for them compared to what they had the last three seasons.

They are continuing to build their momentum for the next season even if their winning streak has been snapped. And yeah, Jalen Green shows his true potential in their last 11 games averaging close to 30 points per game and he has improved his 3 point shooting at now 45%. So it's not totally lost for the Rockets, they still have a chance but they will have to win their last remaining games and hope that the Warriors will lose. But in any case, their journey doesn't end this season, they still have a lot and and a bright future ahead.
