    The List in nothing more then a pessimistic drill down on coach and gm.

    Every team excluding San Antonio has reasons THEY won't make the the playoffs.

    Did Durant's injury miraculous heal ?

    Did Memphis get their feet out of the concrete ? ( getting a little grey and long in the tooth. looking disorganized also.)

    Ditto Mavs: yes fire power, but no jet fuel when it is most needed, the forth quarter.
    If anything goes sideways with Dirk,,,,,,age always wins.

    Phoenix ?....ahead of the Rockets ?

    Wow...just wow.

    9 teams ahead of the Houston Rockets ? Really ?

    Season can't start fast enough. Tonight is a great tuneup.

    Any Morey fan care to argue this?

    Clutch should retire a rocket and professional.

    The anti-Morey brigade extrapolating one part of the objective stance clutch took to fit their agenda.

    Not surprising.

    I think you guys missed the part at the end when he said "it'll happen" and he's not worried about it. Cute.

    Agree with this. I'm pretty confident Morey will be able to swing something at the deadline to at least get a productive bench guy.

    I'm very worried about coaching however. McHale will most likely be gone this season anyway unless we overachieve.

    I think we have a great chance at the 1 seed.
    Spurs I know , we always say they're old then prove everyone wrong, but honestly , yes they are old.
    Blazers lack defense, as do the Warriors
    OKC, well it will be hard for them to be top 4 with Durant being hurt.
    I'm not even worried about the Mavs.
    Pelis need another year to gel.

    1.Rockets
    2.Clips
    3.Portland
    4.Spurs
    5.OKC
    6.GS
    7.Grizz
    8.Dallas sneaks in
    Same teams as last year just different seeding.

    Warriors were a top 10 defense last season and were higher than the Rockets.

    Playoffs by the skin of their teeth, but…..

    I think they will have a better run than last year after they get in.

    Margin of Error for the Rockets is Smaller than other teams

    Harden goes out with an ankle injury for 15 games, the teams only playmaker and this team would drop down fast unless Dwight goes Hakeem mode
