    It's very hard to tell at this point. If the team gels easily in training camp and the pre-season, 10-5 or maybe even better. But if it takes a while for the chemistry to develop and our offense stinks in the preseason like last year, I'd say 8-7 or 7-8. A tough start may help this team to focus better later on.

    Realistically, noticing how slow Van Gundy makes changes...I believe that the Rockets will more than likely come out of Nov. with a 8-7 record.

    8-7 sounds right to me. I hate to be so pessimistic, but five back to backs in one month may just too much for our aged veterans. Besides, there will be some growing pains fitting Swift and DA into the equation too. We'll kick ass the rest of the season though.

    its hard to say this early it depends on who is available on the roster (injuries etc) opening day, if sura is the starting pg i can confidently say that we'd should go no worse than 11-4 but if he isnt and mike james is i can pray to be at 500.


    i'll say 11-4 Boston, San Antonio, Detriot and I'll say Memphis for kicks are the losses

    it was "ced" but crashing or not, he was pretty bold predicting we'd win the "rest of the regular season games" after a loss.

    I predict we win all in Nov. (except against the Bobcats)
