Season starts tonight!

New season = new thread.

Get your predictions in and what not. Some of you have done that already in the off-season thread.

Tonights predictions:

Wizards at Cavs
Celtics at Heat
Mavs at Lakers

Holy shit. James Harden scored 37 points tonight, with 12 assists. Harden could turn out to be the new face of the Rockets franchise if he keeps this up. K-Mart wouldn't be able to do this in tonight's game. Lin had a decent game with 12 points and 8 assists.

Rockets starting PF is supposed to be Patrick Patterson, who is pretty good, but he's out due a minor injury.

A Lin/Harden/Millsap team is going farther than a Lin/Harden/Parsons or Asik team.
ok...

They're almost capped out after the Harden deal and Millsap is gonna want to get paid. That core isn't gonna do anything and it'll be even worse since you're talking about trading pieces to get him. If HOU goal is to just make the playoffs the next few years, go for it.

They're not capped out. They can still afford another max contract.

Harden, Lin & Asik are the only guys on the team that aren't on rookie contracts or playing for the vet's minimum.

Just my opinion, that the Rockets should look to add someone like Josh Smith or Paul Millsap this offseason. They need a big who can be a legit scoring threat.

Agreed. I don't know if they have enough for another max once Harden's extension kicks in (especially with Lin and Asik's cap holds), but if anything they should sign a guy like Millsap as a FA and use some of those pieces to trade for a wing

Lin & Asik are only 8 mil a year contracts. Harden's getting paid 16 a year once his extension kicks in.

So yeah, they can afford another max contract. Daryl Morey already said that's their plan, that hopefully Harden can lure a big-time free agent they can use the max on.


Speaking of contracts...Jrue Holiday & Philly agree on a 4 year, 46 mil contract extension. That's a great deal for Jrue, hopefully he continues to improve. Although I bet he's disappointed he didn't get the max like he originally demanded :lmao
