    I think Yao will need to take it easy and probably won't be in 100% form simply from having not played NBA ball in 9 months. T-mac is coming off of surgery as well. And you've got some new guys who have to find thier sea legs.

    I think it will be a good month, but not a spectactular one.

    16-2 is a bit aggrssive, maybe 14-4 will be more realistic, or evn 13-5.

    Stern forces to split up the rockets into four teams, put each two in east/west..
    after a year, these four teams meet each other in the conference finals, every game takes at least 5 OTs.
    Stern forced to give out four championship, and realized, damn..its still the Rockets that won the thing..

    Why does everyone have us losing to Boston? We haven't even played them with our team at full strength yet. I remember the game last year where we were w/o tmac and still came close to whipping their butts.

    Well you are right at some points. We haven't played them with Yao and McGrady in the lineup. And when you add Artest to make another trio it may be interesting.

    The problem is Artest, Yao, Tracy need to know each other better. Boston has already had expierence.

    That would probably be a record of some kind.

    I think the Rockets go 14-4 in their first 18 games. I think Yao's going to be a bit rusty. Taking in account how well Tmac plays on the road though, we'll be able to over come this. Can't wait.

    We will own the Lakers.

    Half a season of 10/10 doesn't prove anything, Bynum is just a regular center. Sure in a couple of years he may be a 20/10 player, but now? Yao owns him. "Gasoft", Enough said. He shuts down when he plays a superior defense that can cap his offense. Bryant? Battier and Artest, enough said. The rest of the Lakers don't matter. Yes Odom, I'm talking to you.




    David west will do almost NOTHING against us since Battier or Artest is going to guard him.
    With Yao in the paint, Chandler isn't going to get those alley-oops he wants. Hes overrated anyways! The guy can't even create his own shot 3 feet and out from the basket. Chris Paul can score all he wants, he can't carry his team when hes the only one scoring.

    Now Boston, thats a challenge. Thats the only game we have a chance of losing out of the gates.

    I like your schedule and your wins and losses but unfortunately, Im gonna have to declare your schedule ineligible. You have OK City on the first part, and Seattle on the second part of the schedule, and Seattle is no longer a NBA Franchise so I declare this schedule ineligible. ;)



    vs. Memphis - W
    @ Dallas - W
    vs. Oklahoma City - W
    vs. Boston - well first L
    @ Portland - W
    @ LA Clippers - W
    @ LA Lakers - L
    @ Phoenix - W
    @ San Antonio - L
    vs. New Orleans - L
    @ Oklahoma City- W
    vs. Dallas - W
    @ Washington - W
    @ Orlando - W
    @ Miami - W
    vs. Indiana - W
    vs. San Antonio - W
    @ Denver - W

    Fixed :)

    A loss against Oklahoma City at home? I think you meant the Hornets by mistake.
