    Don't think it's been posted yet, but NBA.com has a poll started up:

    Which team is the early favorite in the new Southwest Division?

    I found it interesting that the general public is picking us as early favs OVER the Spurs and T-Wolves.. actually, I'm really surprised. 48% picked us.

    I should hope that we're being picked over the T'Wolves, what with them being in a different division and all. ;)

    YES!!! I love that the Rockets are now being recognized and getting respect around the nation! 48% of 140,000+ people pick the Rockets to win the division. That's so awesome, I love it!

    i'd rather be underdogs or at least not be picked as favorites until our new team has stepped on the court. it'll likely take time to gel so i'd rather have lower expectations than have the team face a lot of scrutiny if we start off slow.
