    Season starts tonight, so let's hear your annual BOLD predictions before it's too late.

    Mine is that the Rockets will break the current single game record for made three pointers (25) multiple times throughout the season, eventually reaching 30 makes.

    Really supposed to be Rockets predictions, but considering you're the only person who has replied in five hours, I guess I'll take it. :confused:

    3 Way Deal by the deadline

    Rockets get Cousins

    Pistons get Ryan Anderson and pick(s)

    Pelicans get Tobias Harris and Clint Capela

    GSWs have 3 injuries. Draymond Green, breaks his leg, Steph Curry blows out his knee and Kevin Durant reinjures his foot.

    Rockets start the season 21-2, to match our best start since Barkley's first year.

    Then on January 1st, just like last year, someone will start a thread titled "James Harden is gonna get screwed over again in MVP Voting", then we all lose sight of the main prize, and it goes downhill from there....in a sea of MVP Race and Media Conspiracy threads ... In the words of MDA, as we "screw it all up" and the GARM becomes "very, very mediocre"

    We will have the best offense of all time.

    115.6 Ortg is the best ever, tied between last years warriors and showtime lakers.

    So I'm predicting something like 116.2

    Zhou Qi makes an impact sometime this season.

    Morey goes after Cousins.

    Harden and CP3 combine for 30 assists in 1 game

    Has a backcourt ever combined for that many assists in a game before in NBA history?

    Scott Skiles got 30 assists by himself on December 30th, 1990 - so yes, it's been done (Nick Anderson chipped in 1 assist to bring the backcourt total to 31). But is that the highest combined total ever? I have no idea.

    I forgot about Scott Skiles

    my new bold prediction: Harden and CP3 will have at least 15 assists each in a single game this year. I'd be surprised if 2 teammates had done that before in NBA history.
