    6-4 in my opinion...

    and I think the fact that 16% said 10-0 shows just how many blind Rockets fans we have here :D

    This is a newly assembled team. it will take time for them to gel. Okay, we have Battier. But Bonzi doesn't seem "ready" yet, wtf. And none of the other youngns have proven anything yet. I would be happy with a 50% win rate.

    Yeah, last year I voted for 10-0 to start the season, we all know how that turned out, lol.

    6-4

    i think it is a reasonable result. And if the chemistry occurs in the team, the result can be better than that. Go Rockets, Go t-mac and yao!

    Here's my theory on why it's good to be a pessimist: Either you end up right, or you end up pleasantly surprised. Being a pessimist is a win-win. Keep it up :D

    I'd say 6-4...since they are facing some pretty good teams

    Me too. So that I don't have to subscribe to a pricey cable service since I only watch Rockets game and morning news.

    i'd be satisified at 6-4, although 5-5 wouldn't surprise me in the least. it will take a few weeks to work the big kinks out, especially with bonzi missing all of the preseason.

    I go with 7-3 I think in the early season that Dallas & San Antonio will be better then us. later in the season we will be better then them. I do not no what to think about Detriot? They can be very tough at times.
    I hope the rockets have gotten over the habit of playing down to the level of poor teams. Would like to see a larger score diffrence when we play lesser teams instead of only winning by 1, 2 or 3 points.

    I'll take my vote back, it's 0-10 if they continue to play dragging their feet.

    7-3 still looks possible.

    In my earlier post in this thread I voted 6-4. That is very likely at this point, but, like you say, 7-3 is still possible.

    We are 6-3.

    But you'd think we were now 0-9 if you read the game threads.

    From the board, I thought we were guaranteed for Greg Oden next year. We're 6-3? Who would have thought? It's only the best start we've been off to in a LONG time.
