There ya go ZRB! I am surprised you hang around the GARM during the off season. Not too much to complain about, when nothing is happening.
50-32, I can't expect more for the regular season. However, if we are talking about the playoff, I would say Rockets can go all the way to the WCF.
With the election so close, I've almost forgotten about this forum. How convenient that the season opener is the same day as the election. I'm going to have to see the Rockets put together a 10+ game winning streak to beleive they're anything but a candidate for the number one pick. Yao has proven nothing yet, and McGrady has been injury prone the last few years. We could be in for the biggest letdown since Pippen. Can't wait for potentially my last Rockets season in America.

49W-33L and 10 of those games by 20 or more points. Season Average PPG(highest to lowest) TMAC-24 Ming-21 Howard-14 Taylor-9 JJ-8 Sura-7 Ward-6 Boki-6 Lue-4 Dik-3 Let the games begin!!!!!!!
I somehow agree with ZRB, this season could be a big letdown. Just too many question marks around the team. For example, how is Yao's stamina? He showed improvement but seemed still be tire prone during the summer games. Second, how will T-mac adjust his game under JVG's game plan? Remember T-Mac is equally a ballhog as Steve Francis, a lot of one on one plays during his Orlando time, only he is a taller and better outside shooter. And how will Taylor/Howard duo play as our PF in the west? Will they be torched again and again facing TD, Dirk and KG, etc? How do we solve our PG problems? This list could go on and on. I won't go that extreme to say that we will miss the playoff. But I feel there is a possibility that we will barely make the playoff, and then get kicked out during the first round. I am sure a lot of people will be disappointed if that happens.
48-34...It will probably take the first two months of the season for the players to get to know each others capabilities..
40-42 9TH in confrence I predict a bad start but we start winning towards the end sadly too little to late
