ScriboErgoSum uses to start his great threads around February/March (2008, 2009, 2010, 2014) because it doesn't tell as much in the early stages of a season, so we'll have to wait a bit for that.
Let's beat a team that will finish above .500 before we start making proclamation about how good we are.
Have you been watching rondo play? I've def changed my mind about him. May be because of his hand but he's been playing like trash along wtih his team thats currently getting beat by 30 right now
I think we can honestly get 1st and no less than 3rd. The only reason though is the fact of how many injuries have been happening like kd, Russell, Reggie, beal, blah blah, and that it's gonna be a while until some teams actually have their max paid guys on the floor. I see us being top two at the end if Christmas, and by then hopefully out team chemistry and final trades that I'm sure Morey will do. Once key players are back to health they will still have to develops chemistry for their absence. Okc will probably get like 5th or 6th seed cause that team is **** right now. But first our rookies have to flip that switch by December cause they always seem so anxious and nervous, and the entire team has to stay healthy also....
It's the Andre Johnson affect. He is not motivated to play for a lottery team. You bring him to Houston where he knows he can contend for a championship you might see a vintage Rondo ala Jason Terry. Winning does things to you...
…….if we sweep the next three games. So far, we have played lottery teams. We are about to move into a set of playoff teams. We will now see what the Rockets are made of. The bench really scares me. I don't see a load of talent there.
I agree, but we've played only terrible teams so far. The Lakers, Jazz, Celtics, and Sixers will all be at the very bottom. (Maybe not the Celtics, but they won't be good either)
