Houston Rockets: smashing records

A few days ago we talked about the Rockets were the fashion team in the NBA, but they are much more than that. If the Atlanta Hawks win today, will reach the second-best winning streak in the NBA, tied with the Milwaukee Bucks in the 1970-71 season.

19 wins in a row. The last 7 without Yao Ming. Tracy McGrady has entered the race to the MVP due to the streak, and Houston does not seem to want get out of the cloud that they themselves have worked. Right now, with 19 straight wins are tied for third with Los Angeles Lakers from 1999-2000. If you win tonight, they'll climb over a seat.

However, the highest ranking position is virtually impossible to achieve. Is held by the Lakers of Wilt Chamberlain (the man NBA record) and extends to 33 games. I do not think Houston will be able to reach that figure, but to reach to Milwaukee tonight.

A curiosity: this season the Bulls 72-10 in Jordan, they achieved a maximum gust of 18 straight wins, which beat Houston two days ago.
