Check this out. They predict us as 59-23. And Points Scored Average is 102.0, and Points Allowed Average is 92.0. That's pretty dam good. http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/news;_ylt=Ah4crmHIyJL6sDfD9qRTZrstPKB4?slug=ys-accuscorerockets102308&prov=yhoo&type=lgns
this is a very intelligent prediction. everything seems fitting. I don't know about 59 wins. I think maybe 56.
Insane. They get 100+ pts/gm with Landry only having 6.7 ppg. Brooks and Barry aren't even individually listed. I think Tracy's ppg won't break into the 20's. He'll still be able to score 20+(easily), but it'll be every other game, with everybody else picking up the scoring.
he scored 14 pts on one leg grimacing. and 10 pts in a quarter v. celtics starters. i think he'll get his pretty easily, esp. since how adelman uses him a lot in the post now.
I like this link better. It talks about the other teams. Their win totals project as follows: Houston 59 NO 57 DA 53 SA 51
Are you serious, Tracy won't average 20 PPG, you should take a look at his stats the past few seasons and retract that comment. A) It's not like he's declining like an Enron stock. B) This season he should be better than he was in seasons past due to the fact that he's trying to FULLY recover before coming back.
He will most likely score 20+ (easier than the previous 2 seasons) if RA plays him at the high post. That also means that Artest will most likely play 6th man to maximize our team's potential. Like the Spurs, too much talent takes away efficiency.
They'll be playing a large rotation and there's only a 102 points to distribute. After adding a 20ppg scorer and a 3 point specialist to a 96 ppg team, and the improvement of last season's rookies, two of which have proven to be potent scorers, there's just not enough points to go around... unless they average 120~ppg. Especially looking at Tracy's scoring trend the past few seasons, he's the most probable one to statistically dive. He's already just barely over 20 ppg.
