    1. The Rockets will win [over]37.5 games this season -- we do play the East 1/3 of the time; I think we have a chance to be a 500 team.
    2. Tracy McGrady will play [under] 32.5 games this season for the Rockets -- not counting on him at all.
    3. Luis Scola's rebounding average will be [under] 9.5 this season -- if he averages 9.5 rebounds a game, he'll be in top 10 in rebounding. This is very difficult to do when you are so undersized.
    4. Excluding McGrady, the Rockets will have [over] 0.5 players score 17.5 points a game or more this season -- someone has to score and it will not be TMAC.
    5. The Rockets will rank [over] 8.5 overall in the league in defensive FG% (last year they were 5th). -- meaning we'll be worse than 8.5
    6. The number of games Trevor Ariza starts will be [over]the number of games Shane Battier starts this season for the Rockets -- If one of Trevor and Shane has to sit, I have a feeling that Shane will be more open to it.
    7. Trevor Ariza will shoot [over] 32.5% from three-point territory this season -- he's going to get some open shots with all the penetrations we'll have with AB and Lowry.
    8. The Rockets as a team will shoot [under]45.3% from the field this season (they shot 45.3% last year) -- take out Yao and the number of shots he takes at his high percentage, we'll definitely shoot worse.
    9. Chase Budinger will play [under] 11.5 minutes a game this season -- I don't see Chase getting a whole lot of playing time.
    10. Daryl Morey will make [over] 1.5 trades before the February trading deadline -- Morey is not going to just sit around, especially if the team's record does not look pretty by that time.

    1. The Rockets will win over 37.5 games this season.

    2. Tracy McGrady will play under 32.5 games this season for the Rockets.

    3. Luis Scola's rebounding average will be over 9.5 this season.

    4. Excluding McGrady, the Rockets will have under 0.5 players score 17.5 points a game or more this season.

    5. The Rockets will rank under 8.5 overall in the league in defensive FG% (last year they were 5th).
    If there's a major trade a defensive C with height might be part of the package.

    6. The number of games Trevor Ariza starts will be under the number of games Shane Battier starts this season for the Rockets.
    I feel Battier will start. Ariza doesn't have to establish as a starter this season.

    7. Trevor Ariza will shoot over 32.5% from three-point territory this season.

    8. The Rockets as a team will shoot under 45.3% from the field this season (they shot 45.3% last year).

    9. Chase Budinger will play under 11.5 minutes a game this season.
    McGrady and then possibly his replacement could see away with Budinger's current minutes.

    10. Daryl Morey will make over 1.5 trades before the February trading deadline.
    Cook + cash to an under the tax team at the deadline could be one move. I wouldn't be surprised if the Rockets tweaked their roster with a small move before the year ends.
