    wow....thats all i can say about the SW division this year

    recordwise the SW div is the worst in the league for what seems to be the first time ever, our division looks like an east division or the NW div, i cant believe it but hey the rockets have a 2 game lead over NOH, its crazy how everyone seemed to pick either the hornets lakers or the rockets to win the west title and only the lakers seem to be filling that prediction as of right now

    I fear everyone in our division (beside Teddy Bears)

    Despite their records, they have the talent to come out any day for an upset.

    True. 4/5 of these teams have had injuries 3 weeks into the season.

    But you can't take any of those teams lightly when playing them.

    Eh, it's still INCREDIBLY early to be watching the standings. Don't get me wrong, I'll take a 2 game lead in the division at any point in the season, but right now, every team in our division is dealing with some sort of issues. Clearly the Spurs and Rockets have major injury issues that they need to overcome, while the Mavericks and Rockets have chemistry issues. I haven't really been able to watch any New Orleans games so I don't know why they are struggling, but you have to believe that with someone like Chris Paul, it's only a matter of time before they get back on track.

    I will say this, though. Out of those teams, the Rockets have the most overall talent, and are dealing with the most issues right now, so once those get resolved.....if I were the rest of the division, I would fear us the most.
