Sure, we have played really well so far, but its so early in the season right now its hard to tell if we can even continue playing like this for the rest of the season. Can Mobley and Francis survive playing the amount of time they have every night? In minutes per game they are ranked 1 and 2. Also, can Thomas last the rest of the season playing pretty much every minute of the game? I dont think we will know for a while, at least until the 20 point mark. Around that time all the wannabee teams fall down. By that time if we still have a pretty damn good record around say maybe 16-4 then we will have at least a feeling of where we could end up. I think this team could be pretty good, but we have made many bone-headed mistakes that have made me second guess. Oh well, I guess we'll see.
If we are 16-4 at the 20 game mark that will be incredible. I can only dream. Our schedule gets much harder in late Nov./Dec with the Lakers, Sacramento, S.A. twice and the TWolves. If the Rockets are 16-4 at 20 then no doubt we are playoff bound, it just doesnt seem like a very realistic record though.
If the Rockets are 16-4 after 20 games then we are headed for our third championship. Just look at the tough schedule coming up!
