    "we've treated the first 50 games as preseason, to get acquainted with everyone"

    no one said that, but it would be funny if harden did.

    Well I think the number 25 is because a lot of teams have some benchmarks that help them see wht direction they should go.

    Quite sad your post. Worse than 2012-13.:rolleyes:

    In the words of Stan Van Gundy, the <strike>Pistons</strike> Rockets <strike>look</strike> ARE 'firmly committed to being mediocre'

    2 so-called superstars and they're on track to be no better than the Kevin Martin-led Rockets.

    Jefferson was mentioned before, but how exactly does he fit on this team? He's an offensive center who can't play any other position. He's a worse defender than Capela. Coming off a torn meniscus. He's inefficient as a scorer. I don't see why any contending team would want him now in his career. I'll listen to your take though and maybe you think differently of Jeff than I do.

    8th looks likely. The Blazers are coming.

    I'd rather tank than fight for 7th or 8th. We either have to make a major acquisition that takes us up to 4-5 or we should dump salary and go to the lottery.

    The problem is.....will Les allow Morey to tank? I don't think he will so that will limit what Morey can do.

    I don't think the Rockets can get to the #4 seed, but they might be able to get to #5 if they could turn things around. But that is asking a lot right now.
