I think Houston has to be behind San Antonio. They haven't proved anything yet.

I think the better question is, will Memphis win ten total games throughout the year. They play in a stacked division, a stacked conference, and they were miserable without Pau Gasol last year.

OJ Mayo playing with a young Rudy Gay on a sorry Memphis team reminds me of when Iverson came in and played with Stack.

Memphis was crappy with and without the lackluster play of Gasol last season. If anything, his unmotivated behind not being there with the addition of a motivated Gasol and determined OJ Mayo should improve there 22-60 record. I say 28 wins, but of course they will be the worst team in the Southwest when you consider its the best division in the NBA.

The Grizz are obviously not a great team, but I wouldnt call them sorry. You have Conley at the point, and I expect a jump in his stats. Im not going to say a CP3 type of jump but I dont think 14 and 7 is out of the question. The Darko/Gasol tandem should be ok. The only evident hole is at PF, where u can pick between Warrick/Antoine Walker/Darrell Arthur. Are they awesome? heck no, are they sorry? hardly

Houston (if healthy) - 58-24
New Orleans - 57-25
San Antonio - 56-26
Top three can go either way
Dallas - 50-32 - don't scare me anymore
Memphis - 20-62 - over/under of 20 wins?

You're right, but I've been high on houston (just as everyone else has) ever since they've landed McGrady....and they still haven't managed to live up to expectations.
Maybe if we keep them under the radar they might soar like eagles, because we know T-Mac is good with house money.
