    I think Portland go end up in 6th, Memphis in 7th and hornets in 8th. That first round match up between Denver and OKC go be a good series. As far as the East goes i dont see anything changing. I really dont want Charlotte in the 8th spot because they give the Bulls trouble.

    I thk we (OKC) can at least get to the Conference Finals this year. I predict beating Denver in 6 and beating the Spurs in 7.

    Damn we(Grizzlies) are going to be a problem for anybody. Man I was worried when we lost Rudy but Tony Allen dont ? around. Zach, Mike.OJ off the bench, and our other role players. Mannn! We might end up being higher than 8th by the end of the year though. We first have to beat NO tonight then again next week and I know Portland is going to lose a couple more.

    Well I was happy when yall lost rudy because I'm a Houston fan and I figured since we were playing very well we would grab the 8th seed. The only problem is yall ? ? haven't stopped losing. Tony allen has really stepped and mike conley's overrated/overpaid ass hasn't played to bad either

    So true, yall have one of those any give night a new player will step up type of teams. As a Rockets fan I ? HATE y'all, thad kills us every time. All philly needs is a legit #1 option once iggy finally gets the ? out of there. If it wasn't for thibodeau I would have doug as coach of the year...

    I don't like either, but that's what I see happening. Wouldn't mind seeing
    something like, okc vs the bulls.

    you aint lying. We can score but we dont have an inside presence to help out on defense. Chuck hayes is a good defender but that ? only 6'6''....wtf he gon do against the bigs in the west?

    actually not really. We dodged a bullet by brooks getting injured and playing like ? because kyle lowry has emerged as a really good player and all of a sudden this ? has a mean jumper also. He's average almost 20 points and 7 assists since he became the starter. Shane was great for us but he really held us down a lot being that we have become an uptempo team. Plus we've stayed over .500 despite a terrible start and the fact that we have a 6'6 center and no interior defense. We have the number 3 offense in the league, all we needs is a defensive center and a better #1 option than pumpfake a.k.a kevin martin

    Ducktales. There is no way the Rockets have the 3rd best offense in the league.
    edit: checked ESPN and you guys are the 3rd over in points

    Gasol is cool but we can when without him. When his brother left yeah it was tough but not Marc. Unlike your team we have back up PFs and Centers.

    and assists. I'm not saying we REALLY have the 3rd best offense in the league. But as far as assists and ppg we do. It's just our defense is ? trash when you consider that we have two HORRIBLE defenders in k-mart and chase and no interior defense. If chuck hayes was 3-4 inches taller he'd be the best on ball defender in the low post in the league.
