    Agree, but Boogie looks to be in the best shape of his career. He's realized that losing weight can reduce the stress on his joints, ligaments and tendons. Hopefully, Silas will manage his minutes and back-to-backs to help reduce that stress as well.

    We have a very high ceiling if they stay healthy and harden buys in. Multiple ways to play.

    I’m not expecting 2nd seed nor do I want it. I think both will need lots of rest during the season and have minor injuries and I don’t want to push them too hard. I want to save them for the postseason.

    if harden is back and buys in then 2nd seed even with them resting is on the table, though

    Without Harden it is not enough.

    Lakers have LeBron and Davis
    Clippers have Kawhi and George
    Suns have Paul and Booker
    Nuggets have Murray and Jokic
    Blazers have Lillard and McCollum
    Mavs have Luka and Porzingis
    Jazz have Mitchell and Gobert
    Warriors have Stephen and Green

    Rockets need Harden.

    Those teams might have the BIG 2 but have the BIG 3!! i would compare our BIG 3 to anyone of their BIG 3.....plus our BENCH is explosive!!!

    Its possible because of the upside of boogie, and James Scoring ability that houston right there with Clippers. But Wall and Cousins are going to have to be super healthy for the rockets to get passed the clippers in the 2nd round. Thats even trying to say they get that 3rd seed this year. If they play bad this year everything is going to explode come that trade deadline. Harden is gone.
