Our team is already as Chet as you can get. A freshly squeezed flyblown peanut-crusted piece of chet.
Also the national game should’ve been in Detroit, our crowd will embarras us by not showing up and there’s no hate for Cade here…how can they mess this up so bad?!
Man, I remember when I used to be excited about our schedule. We have Minny as our first game bro. It feels bad.
I'm going 4-6 (3-3 in October games) All in all I see Nov and half of Dec games as weak opponents or winnable. Nov and Dec we make up some ground and play over .500 ball. End of season seems strong though, imo.
If you really feel that way you should be those first 10 games. The Rockets will only be favorites in 1 and huge underdogs in at least half of them.
Eh, ESPN flexes their schedule IIRC for the 2nd half of the season, don't really care about that anyways. First 10 games, 8 of them are against playoff teams. So very likely starting off something like 3-7 if being generous.
i see us overachieving with 32 wins wood will have a great season tryin to get a max bag kpj MIP and green ROY that last SL game was a glimpse of the dog mentality these kids will display clawin and scratchin their way to 30+ wins
I see their O/U at 34.5 Wins at one place and 22.5 Wins at the other. Now I see 27.5 and 25.5. Maybe there's a lot of uncertainty about how good we'll be. OK, it looks like it's 27.5 at most places. Hm,
1) @ Min.......win 2) OKC...........win 3) Boston......loss 4) Mavs.........loss 5) Utah...........loss 6) @ Lakers....win.....Westbrook lays an egg trying too hard to kill us. Halloween. Rockets play well on Halloween. 7) @ Lakers.....loss (two days later, Lakers adjust and calm down) 8) @ Suns........loss 9) @ Nuggets...win....mile high goes in our favor as our young guns go full throttle and Jokic can't keep up. No Jamal Murray who helped lead them to the playoffs. They let their guard down. 10) @ Warriors...loss (B2B) [4 wins-6 losses] just my humble opinion. Early we shock some teams as Theis role is same as Capela and he transitions to new team seamlessly. Ball handler calls for screen....he screens. Cuts, slashes, pop outs off what defense shows. Theis role as Capela role is as simple as simplistic can get. He has been in that role for years. Now teams will adjust as the season goes on.....but in those first 10 games.....surprise. surprise, Surprise!!! As one Gomer Pyle use to say. Surprise to the tune of 4-6. Other teams fall victim of Rockets in Nov/Dec.
My countdown was off by one day, so here is till tip-off for first reg season game: 1 month 29 days 6 hours 16 minutes 19 seconds
I don’t know how betting works but if I put a 100 dollars that we win more than 28 games, any idea what I’d win?
Betting at Caesers Sportsbook the Rockets to win OVER 25.5 games is at -110 odds. So you would have to bet $110 to win $100.
