    By "major trade," I mean the Dwight Howard kind of deal. Just curious about what people think would happen if the Rockets go into the season with their current roster (plus a few tweaks, of course). Morey said he thought the team would surprise folks with the # of games it wins, so I want to know how many games folks think HOU will win.


    Poll coming.

    We would win more than 30 games only if one of the rooks has top 5 potential in the league...

    probably 35-45.

    lin/douglas
    martin/lamb
    parsons/white
    patterson/jones
    asik/d-mo

    that's a solid lineup. those of you who think we'll only win 20-30 games will be disappointed. I can't see us doing terrible.

    Minny only won 40 games last year, and their line up is much better than ours...

    Forgive me for drinking the rocket red Kool Aid but I think Lamb is going to take the NBA by storm and help lead us to a good season. Very good season. 50-32.

    Minny would win more than 40 if half of their team were not injuried.

    50 is too much. Haha.

    0.500 record is achievable for sure.

    sorry i mean 26... Yep they had a lot of injuries but still. well we were at .515 last year.... I don't think our current roster is close to where we had last year.

    Usually a young team will have a lot of highlight plays, but it will often fail to close out the game.

    Well seeing that some predict this team to be bottom 5 of the league then 30 games would be a surprise. I'm going with that.
