I think so. If we stay outta the twilight injury zone I think we'll be aight. i predict 6th seed in the West easy. my lineup is C Ming/Cato Pf GRIFFIN (he is too good to come off the bench)/ Kenny Thomas/ Mo T SF Nachbar (maybe Griff should start here)/ Rice (can't wait till his contract expires and maybe Rashard will still come) SG Mobley/ Maddux (watch him be and effective Cat backup) PG Francis/ Norris I think this was a good draft for the rockets if ming is what he is cracked up to be and not all hype. also if the red tape isn't crazy. Nachbar was an EXCELLENT pickup. w/out injuries we are close to being the 5-6 best team in the league. C
I think we have a really good shot if Yao can really contribute a lot in his rookie campaign. I like Nachbar a lot also. I think the Rocks are strong enough to take out last year's contenders like Seattle, Utah, maybe even the T-Wolves. I just hope it's not wishful thinking. =D
