THE ROCKETS HAVE BEEN PREDICTED TO MAKE THE PLAYOFFS THE PAST 2 SEASONS AND THEY STILL HAVENT MADE IT...I THINK THAT THE 3rd TIME IS THE CHARM WHAT IS YOUR PREDICTIONS ON THE UPCOMING SEASON AND WHAT PLAYOFF SPOT DO YOU THINK THEY WILL EARN??????
49 wins- 7th spot. Go Rockets-It would be awesome to make it to the 2nd round -get past Los Angeles (provided the Lakers are in the #2 seed)...
You can find everybody's predictions in this thread : http://bbs.clutchcity.net/showthread.php?s=&threadid=38082 I, personally think they'll go 0-82, make the playoffs, and win the championship as the lowest seeded team ever to do so.
Assuming we have decent health, Griffin improves, and we get at least some contribution from our draft picks, i think we can win about 47 games and make the playoffs. I really think the west is wide open after the top 4 (lakers, kings, mavs, and spurs) and we could be anywhere from the 5th-8th seed. Most likely the 7th or 8th though.
IF Ming can put up 10 ppg and 10 reb and Nachbar put up Oscar Torres numbers, and Taylor and Francis stay healthy than we should win around 40-50 games.
To me it doesn't matter how many wins we have, because I know we are gonna make the playoffs, and once you're there the regular season doesn't mean anything. (Well except for your seed) But if I had to make a guess, 45-55 wins and 5-8 seed in the playoffs.
