Minnesota Timberwolves. as 4th seed Rockets Squeak in as the 5th seed Or vis versa if rockets get 4th seed Anthony Edwards, Naz Reid, Randle and Gobert..
I wouldn't be confident in the Rockets beating any playoff team in the West given who the head coach is.... and I'm not confident the Rockets get the 5 seed.
I think we drop to 6 or 7. Play spurs or lakers on the road. Cancun coming early this year. Oh wait, like last year.
The 2nd seed in the West lost: Green Brooks FVV Whitmore Added: Durant Sheppard (for all intents and purposes) Capela Okogie DFS Playoff experience for Sengun/Amen/Tari/Bari They better f*cking win in the first round.
Steve Kerr is now 8-5 against Ime in the playoffs despite Ime having the higher seed in both series. I don’t think think I can take another series of Kerr embarrassing the hell out of Ime.
Knowing our luck we’ll get the 3rd seed but draw the Warriors and lose in 7. Or we play Denver and get swept.
Whoever we play the short comings on defense will be put on Sengun mostly. Play the Twolves Randle will abuse him. Against the Nuggets it's Jokic... don't even want to talk about going against Spurs or Thunder. We will see what we look like against the Lakers tomorrow and Wednesday. When the offseason is here it will be all about trading Sengun for Giannis or whoever. I already see the writing on the wall.
Honestly, I'm not confident in the Rockets winning a single regular season game against anybody, much less a 7-game series against a Western Conference 4 or 5 seed. I predict they drop to the 6th seed or the play-in by the end of the regular season. That said, I wouldn't be shocked if they clawed their way back to the 3 seed by the end of the regular season. They're that unpredictable. In any case, they'll have to overachieve to get out of the 1st round, and they haven't really overachieved since December.
