kwikly get kicked off the board with that 39-43 $hit! Rocks lose in round 2 of playoffs to LAL. 52-30 6th seed, followed by a WCF appearance in '03. Cato will have HIS breakthrough year, nothing great but what the Rocks ordered.
49-33 7th or, more likely, 8th If moochie leaves, then I would say we'll have a slightly worse record and possiblly teeter on the lottery abyss again. In any case, we become more competitive this year and scarier. teams will fear us because of our potential - there will be a lot of inconsistency at first, looking sometimes brilliant and sometimes pitiful. but we'll manage to level it out after Christmas and peak at the right time to slip into the playoffs just behind the Jazz (50 - 32 and their last playoff season until the 2004-2005 season).
