I really hope you don't actually believe that.
 
As good a chance as OKC? As good a chance as Miami? As good a chance as Indiana?
 
No, and those are just the teams that I'm 95% confident you'd admit are better than the Rockets. (there are others you won't admit haha)

 
Currently better, but they're also teams who've had several years for their key components to gel. Houston's getting better. Just because they wouldn't compete as they currently stand doesn't mean they can't come April.

Houston won't make the Conference Finals. I promise you that.*
 
*barring injury

If they get the two seed, they'd play someone like Dallas and then it'd come down to whoever the 3 seed is, barring an upset. Either SA or Portland. Houston wins both of those series.

If they're able to avoid the Thunder until the WCF, I'd put them in the WCF.

 

[CameronCrazy06]

There's a better chance of Houston losing in the first round than there is of Houston making the NBA finals.

Danny Ferry traded for Antawn Jamison again lul

 

[BwareDWare94]

Of the 5-8 seeds, Houston could lose to Golden State if Golden State got hot and because they have someone who can at least try to defend Dwight in Bogut.. Otherwise, not happening. 

 

[BwareDWare94]

And I'll say Memphis, if Memphis gets in, can beat anyone but OKC with both Durant and Westbrook.

 

[elcheato]

Nando De Colo is free!!!

 

[elcheato]

And Jack is still on the team, god damn it. I really don't understand this Hawes move with nothing else being done.

Your obsession with Memphis is so bizarre. They really aren't that good.

 

[elcheato]

Hinkie traded a 2nd round pick for Byron Mullens. Does he not realize they're gold?

Especially considering Gasol is out indefinitely right? They aren't making the playoffs, not sure if they would have even with him.

 

[elcheato]

Marc's been back for a little bit. They've been playing well with him, still not a contender in the West by any means.

 

[elcheato]

Evan Turner in Indy, lawd

 

[Pugz]

granger to philly

 

[Teagz]

A meaningful trade at the deadline!
 
 
It's been a few years.

"If you wanted to beat Miami, you needed Danny Granger in the playoffs"
 
Is Tim Legler drunk?

 

[CameronCrazy06]

Didn't he get hurt again though?

 

[CameronCrazy06]

So Evan Turner is the Pacers' 6th man now?
