    LOL ... Gotta feel pretty good with my prediction. The opener in Utah was a nasty surprise/upset. :mad:

    On pace to 7-3.

    i'm happy with 6-4. if we steal a win against the pistons, i'd be VERY happy with 7-3.

    Steal? Psshh... Pistons don't got nothin' on the Rockets. It'd be a letdown if the Rockets lose to them. Rockets are gonna be top 3 in the west this season, and 7-3 is just the start of it.

    Hopefully we can kick piston's posterior.....in their home court.
    that will make us a 7-3 team.

    Pistons are no longer that strong. Rasheed has been sorta lost after Ben went to Chicago. I think we have a pretty good chance to win at Detroit.

    Even we lost, 6-4 is definitely not a bad result for a newly-built team.

    Yeah, Pistons this year ain't nothing close to the 'Pistons' as we know it. It'll be a close game, and certainly very winnable.

    I voted for 7-3 when this poll came out and it looks like we have a good chance to hit this mark after 10 games. I think we'll go 15-5 after 20 games and probably 29-15 by the All-Star break.

    14 games above .500? Only if both of our superstars play out of their minds. I doubt very much that sort of record. 10 games above .500 will be good enough for me.

    Good call on Utah, New Orleans and Milwaukee.

    If we beat Detroit we'll be off to a great start, and on pace to win 57 games.
    (Despite a fairly tough schedule to start the season). And this team is not even nearly as good as it can be yet.

    Not a bad start. Took Miami and Dallas, won some road games too. Made through 4 games 5 nights. I dont care Miami or Dallas was not at their best forms, I am just happy we got them, they are still good teams.

    The next 10 games are little easier. Go Rockets.

    7-3, why not?

    The pistons are the easiest to beat.

    Yupp I guess most of the posters were right on the money when they said 7-3 record. Of course it can still be 6-4 but the Pistons have lost a step this year. There big man in the middle isn't there.

    I think it was a tie between 6-4 and 7-3

    I only counted the first 3 pages... and didnt count the multiple predictions...

    putting the majority within 1 game... of predictions not bad

    Detroit's playing the Wiz as we speak. A back to back for them and a good nights sleep for us.

    7-3...

    Not a definite but very probable.
