    I believe this is my sixth year of starting this thread. No state has more NBA firepower than Texas. This year the teams may actually be closer in talent level than ever. The Spurs feel that a bad call against the Mavs cost them an appearance at the WCF. The Mavs have tweaked and added to a roster that led by 14 in game three of the finals against Miami after winning the first two games. The Rockets hope that a healthy Yao+McGrady and the newly acquired B. Wells will pull them up to the Mavs-Spurs level.

    How do you rank the three teams for 2006-7?

    Mavs > Spurs > Rockets

    Our guys can prove that they deserve to move up on that food chain as early as Nov. 4th, and I fully expect them to do just that

    Spurs>Mavs>Rockets

    Before Rockets prove otherwise, I think this is a proper rank. Spurs and Mavs last year can go one or the other way, it's very close, but Spurs got championship before, so Spurs got to be better than Mavs

    I actually agree with you here, but i just don't like the mavs...i mean who does. Also this is a projection so i think it would be fair to say thatTHIS year's rockets will be better than THIS year's Mavs.

    It all depends on health of the teams. In a injury free season, I'd put the Rockets 1st, Spurs 2nd, Mavs 3rd. Because life is not a perfect world, I'd say, "If you want to be the best, you've got to beat the best! Wooooooo!"

    Rockets>Spurs>Mavs (Rockets and Spurs are neck and neck IMHO with Dallas right behind)

    Texas>UH>A&M>Tech>Baylor (UT has more talent than everyone but UH and or aTm could claim the number 1 spot)

    Every year we have delusional fans who think we're better than Dal or SA. We are still light years away. We haven't won a playoff series in what, 7 years? We really have zero room to say we're better than Dal or SA.Everything has to go right for us and a lot has to go wrong for SA and Dal for us to be 1st or 2nd in the state.

    It is Mavs, Spurs, Rockets.

    But being third in this triangle is not that shameful. Before the season's end we could be tied for second, maybe third in the Holy Trinity :D

    Spurs>Mavs>Rockets.

    62,60,59 wins respectively. It's not bad being the 3rd best Texas team. Cause these are 3 of the top six in the league. Besides, we could take any of them in the playoffs.
