    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.

    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    Parsons has been replaced by a better fit.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.
