Hornets (edit: Pelicans not Hornets), Lakers, Nuggets (unlikely), Kings (depending on offseason moves) can all gun for that spot


edit: Rockets still make playoffs barring injuries IMO, but at a lower seed

Rockets win 51 games.

The west is stacked but I guess anything can happen.

Rockets will make the playoffs but will probably lose in the first round.

Lakers aren't going anywhere this season.

No one. Rockets are making the playoffs comfortably and Harden is gonna be a top 2 MVP candidate. BOOK IT.

Last I heard there were no updates on Gallo or McGee's return. Will adjust accordingly if that changes.


Or pelicans?

Good analysis.


They are my darkhorse to make it to the playoffs. I just accidentally said Hornets so thanks, yeah it is a good analysis.

Losing Parsons isn't really going to hurt them, it's more asik. but considering he barely played for a lot of last year and houston have decent young bigs plus Dwight, rockets should still make it around 5/6th seed barring injury.

Parsons has been replaced by a better fit. Asik barely played half the games.

The biggest loss for the Rockets IMO was Lin, not because Lin is awesome, but because Lin was a bench scorer who was not replaced.

Rockets bench is weak. Theres not a 'go to' scorer, no volume scorer coming off the bench.

James harden and Dwight in their primes missing the playoffs?

I havent seen much of him outside 'highlight' reels, but that dude looks like the old guys that show up at the Y and try to ball.

Slow and fragile.

He wont be putting up Lin type numbers. Nick Johnson is the best hope for a scorer off the bench. If he can come in and average 9 a game as a sixth man playing the PG & SG spots, I think we will be just fine.

Yeah if they are healthy there is basically 0 chance they miss playoffs realistically.

Stopped reading there. :roll:

And I love Ariza, wish my squad still had him, but no.

Dwight and Harden are gonna miss Parsons more than a fat kid After they discontinue the Mcrib.

Then you haven't watched Parsons.

Can't create his own shot. Not a great 3pt shooter. Horrible defense. High basketball IQ.

Ariza is a much better fit, in almost every way imaginable. Not saying Ariza is better, but he is 100% a better fit. Houston needed a perimeter defender, and Parsons isthe exact opposite of that.

Great bump.
Ariza and Brewer more than made up for Parsons
Lakers are far away from playoffs contention
Not only did the Rockets make the playoffs but they're currently the second seed
