    If the Rockets are in the East they have as good a chance as the Pacers, Bucks, Raptors, 76'rs, Orlando, Miami, and New York to make the Finals.

    The Rockets just don't have the inside presence to rough out games! Sure they will run and gun, but come on, all of you saw how the Rockets tired and slumped in the 3rd quarter.

    Now Cato and Taylor go down with injuries!

    After seeing a couple of games, this is what I think is the class of the West!

    1.Lakers
    2.Spurs
    3.Wolves
    4.Blazers
    5.Utah
    6.Suns
    7.Mavericks
    8.Houston
    9.Seattle
    10Vancouber
    11Sacramento
    12Denver
    13Clippers
    14Golden State

    Honestly the West is 11 teams deep. And on any given night any of the top 12 teams can beat the top teams in the league. Of course they can't win a seven game series against the elite but the games will be tough!!

    Its been 2 games, players can get injured, players can get traded.

    Its to early to be talking about this and that.
