    8 Houston Rockets 45 37 .549 42 40 .512

    How is Yao? That's the first question for Houston, which has built a strong supporting cast without knowing whether its 7-foot-6 superstar can return from foot surgery to carry the team. But if the big fella can go, the Rockets have the pieces in place, with the experienced Rick Adelman and savvy Daryl Morey for guidance.

    they have us as the 8 seed, I would have us as the 8 seed without Yao. With (HEALTHY) Yao we'll be top 5.

    As per the reports Yao Mind is coming back and he will play so from that pov Rockets is better than all the teams except Lakers. I put them at no. 2. Combo of Yao, Scola, Ariza, Martin n Brooks is deadly! Rockets prolly has the one of the best bench in Miller, Patterson, Battier, Budinger n Lowry! This team reminds me of the championship Pistons team, lot of chemistry and unselfish players. Now this all depends if Yao comes back healthy and stays healthy.

    Pretty fair, although 45 wins is the lower bound of what I think the range is. This team was not that good last year. Yao Ming hobbling onto the court for a few games while he waits for another season-ending injury isn't going to make us much better.

    reports say he is playing again, yeah but nothing can say how many games due to health.

    Sad, but true. I'm not very confident in Yao coming into the season.

    dont be too surprised. we always fail expectations every year. This year is no different.

    How many times have Yao been injured? If you were a fan on a different team, you would look at the Rockets as a a 45 win team also.

    Dont worry about it though. I rather have us lay low and surprise the NBA.
