Craziest but Plausible Predictions for the Season!

Battier will be traded this year.

 

Rockets Get Iggy/Melo and Steve Nash

 

Oh please lord.

 

Patrick Ewing fills in at C on 4/1/2011

 

Yao plays 70 games and Martin plays 75 games.

 

I think some people in this thread need to look up the word 'plausible.'

 

brooks traded to phoenix,
Jeffries, Hill, taylor, NY picks for Igoudala

 

Rockets knock out the lakers in the WCF and are headed to the Finals. T-mac promptly says "it's on me".

 

1. Houston finally have an overall healthy season
2. Yao plays a full season and does not have a set back
3. We make the WCF vs L.A. and win!
4. A major trade involving AB goes down for a top player, but not CP or Carmelo. Someone that we never really thought of but will approve because the "Wizard" pulled it off!
5. Chase will be the 3rd leading scorer (around 19 PPG)
6. Patterson will be Mandry-like
7. Hill will average a double double

 

I've got another one:

No Rocket averages 20 points per game, but 8 different players average at least 10 points/game.

 

Best prediction of the thread.

 

We get JVG for defensive coach!!

 

Scola and Martin both make the allstar team.

Ish becomes a star.

Jordan hill grows into his hands, catches a pass cleanly, and averages 14 pts 7 reb per game.

Bullard professes his love for budinger while on tour promoting Bud's volleyball career.

Drexler admits to drinking before every broadcast.

Brooks is traded to the Nuggets and DD promplty sells his house and moves to Colorado.

And of course... Yao goes the entire season without an injury.

 

He also just lost the starting job....

 

Here is my crazy but plausible scenario - Houston doesn't crack 50 wins(probably ends up around 44-47) but they end up with Chris Paul in a multiplayer deal that sends Brooks, Jordan Hill, and Battier away along with a few draft picks after an Amare injury makes the Knicks a lottery team again.

...I think the Hornets wake up and realize they have to trade Paul this year since next year will be a lockout and they won't be able to pull a deal off with no CBA/staff. If they don't trade him by this year, they possibly go into the darkness with no guarantees of when the NBA comes back online - possibly after his contract has expired.

 

Rockets make it in the top 5 in the west adelman wins coach of the year. Make it to the second round

 

lol nice

 

Les keeps the team over the luxury tax through the trade deadline.

 

Rockets make a major multi-player trade before the deadline.

 

Houston Rocket starting PG: Kyle Lowry.

Not much of a revelation.
