Gets healthy? Besides Donatas Motiejunas, who is an average player, who else needs to get healthy? You could say that about a number of teams too, and some teams have an opportunity to even gain more in the health department (Cavs).

And meshing? It's not like you have a brand new core of players (like the Heat in 2010-2011, Houston a couple years back, and Cavs last year). Again, you could say the same thing about most of the league.

quote:
.300 team 9 times of 10 and they'll beat the .350 team 9 times out of 10

In order to have an .900 win percentage against a .300 team, the Rockets would have to be a .800 team and a .830 team to beat a .350 team 9 out of 10.

In other words, the only team that would likely win 9/10 is Golden State, and Houston isn't anywhere near the Spurs, Cavs, and a handful of other teams, let alone the Warriors.

Again, there is no basis for our 9 out 10 prediction whatsoever. It's not even logical

Well D12 is about to start playing every night, that obviously makes a difference. Beverley has only played in a little more than a handful of games this season( I don't mean 5 literally, this is where I know you'll go look it up and point out that he's played in more games than that you stickler you). That's 3 starters from last years team that will soon be in the lineup every night who haven't been up until now.

Exaclty, which is why they'll play better when they get the 3 starters from last season playing every night. Which means that they HAVE been playing with new players this season up until now. Maybe you should familiarize yourself with the team before you try to act like you know what you're talking about. You rarely if ever see me commenting on CLE. Why? They aren't my team and I don't watch them every night.
