    Looks like an error to me. Shouldnt OKC and Dallas be tied for 2nd since their predicted 2010-11 records are the same? Houstons predicted record on that same page is 7 games behind 2nd place. Something is off.

    It's the Mavericks Playoff choking history I'm sure.

    Maybe they are assuming Morey makes a deal for a star and we surprise in the playoffs (I hope).

    Regular season record doesn't matter once you're in the playoffs!

    Ah yeah, I read that wrong. I thought it was playoff seeding. Yeah maybe the assumption is that we'll make a blockbuster trade at the deadline and save Yao for a deep playoff run.

    They only predicted us with three wins better.

    I don't think they considered we picked up Martin and Hill after the all-star break and that we shipped away our cancer Trevor Ariza...

    The '95 Rockets won 47 games and won the championship.

    what an epic fail of an article. Senseless off season rhetoric.

    What?!?

    Our record without Yao last season was 42-40, and they're predicting that, with our new lineup and with the return of Yao, we'll be 45-37 ?!?! They're saying we're only going to win 3 more games than last season?

    That's just dumb.

    Lakers are going down.

    We're the Rockets dude.

    We can win the championship and they'd still say it's because other teams were bad and not because we were good.

    After the Rockets get Carmelo, they'll need to do a re-vote.
