    Las Vegas Hilton came out with regular season win totals today.
    Rockets: 30.5 (5th from the bottom above Bobcats, Hornets, Magic, and Kings).

    Gut level, this seems about right to me (and the general consensus here). And looking over the schedule, I feel it's pretty much that way. Schedule is pretty brutal to start but gets a bit better as it goes.

    [NOTE: discussions about top team win totals should be taken to DISH]

    Very happy about this. I was worried it might come out at around 35 1/2, which I believe would have been a fair bet. Last year I thought the 32 1/2 that came out was a no brainer, and despite injuries to our top 2 players, it still looked that way until the 5 game losing streak at the end of the season. Still snuck in there though.

    This year I see best case scenario around 40-45 wins, with fair value around 35. 30 1/2 is a no brainer, again.

    Off the top of your head, do you know what the odds were last year?

    I know the rockets have a different team now but I just wanted to see if Vegas was right about last year.

    Really... We could easily win only 25 games... I think we are in for a very rough season.

    I care about Raptors wins total. Ideally bottom 4th, but would settle for bottom 6th as predicted by Hilton.

    Raptors seem to be predicted at 31.5. If things go well this season, we could end up with two top10 picks.
