    Paul Flannery and Tom Ziller write about what they expect from this season.

    I kind off agree with what they are saying but I think this team's ceiling is more than 50 games. I'm not saying they will win more than 50 game, but I wouldn't be surprise if they did. This team will be alot of "boom" or "bust".

    barring injury, there's no chance the offense is bust. defense is the only wild card

    What the hell does that even mean? I think he means less than zero chance because if he truly means non-zero then that could literally mean anything between .00001& 100%.

    By the way, I've said all along since the acquisitions of Gordon & Anderson that if healthy this team is easily a top 4 team in the West that will challenge for a top 2 seed.

    I know it is tough to be an expert on 30 different teams (and by tough I mean impossible), so I'm not looking to hate too much on Ziller and Flannery, but this article reads like they just read like 5 to 10 other preseason articles about the Rockets and mushed all the information together.

    "Defense will struggle...check. Dwight is still a capable rim protector...check. Capela is an exciting young player...check. D'Antoni and Harden bad reputations...check. Did we miss anything Tom? No...cool." *send*
