    Very easy schedule to open the season, which is good considering Lawson's suspension.

    Very tough from end Jan till mid Mar that we pray to grind through without any further injuries.

    I know what your implying lol. We won't be a team that just beats to mediocres and loses to the contenders though... our team is too deep and good for that. In the beginning of the season there may be an adjustment period with Lawson but that shouldn't affect the overall win/loss record at all that much. A lot of teams we will just straight out dominate including some of these hyped so called contenders.

    Be sure to rep Dwight very well over there.

    You can never be fully satisfied, but 19 national games and only one trip to GS coming off a 2-seed with a home Christmas game and a new years game against GS to me tells me we are respected. Things like the Fakers on national TV is infuriating, but it happens.

    And if we want to nitpick and complain about things like the b2b's vs Clippers and OKC, just remember Dallas played us on b2b's 4 times last season.

    The schedule ain't perfect but I think we have done well.

    Time to start a thread for Games won. Last year I said 57 wins while the consensus was close to 52-54 wins on CF.

    I think this is a very decent schedule as the first part of the season probably is the easiest in the league, assuming Lawson may get 10 games or so suspension, that definitely helps.

    I'm very happy with our schedule. Good job in general by Silver.
    Now if they reduced even further the Lakers games and didn't give them a Christmas game it would be even better.

    Seriously the Lakers? This will be just like last year when the Knicks and Lakers were on all the time. I guess the NBA doesn't want good ratings.

    The Rockets has 19 national TV games,

    5 of them in the first 41 games, 14 in the second 41 games.

    We really need to have a good start in the coming season with this type of schedule.

    Other team notes:

    1. 1st game against Mavs is second night of B2B for them; other 3 have them off the night before

    2. Clips have to play Spurs the night before both thrips to Houston.

    3. Memphis's last 3 games are GSW, @LAC, @GSW.

    4. Thunder get the last night of the season off; travel to San Antonio the night before. Spurs play in Dallas to end the year.

    This might not be the place to ask but can anyone give me advice on picking up tickets? Ill be on a trip (im from Australia) and will likely be in houston in January for the Cavs Rockets game. Where is the best place to get tickets from (i hear stubhub?) and when do they become available generally?

    No, each team will arrange the preseason games individually - or at least have much more flexibility.

    Some of them may not even play in their home courts.

    Like the Rockets played in Vipers last years against GSW.
