I'd take over on Houston and definitely under on the Clippers. PG isn't starting the season and will probably rest a lot with shoulder issues and Kawhi is definitely not playing over 65 games
We can get 60 w/o major injuries over 2 weeks. Hopefully MDA will get a legit staff soon and have a productive pre-season...
Over 52. I believe Harden won't have to work as hard this upcoming season as he did last year. In addition, we starting with players who already understand the offense.
55/56. Even if Russ and Harden decide to have zero on court chemistry and only play when the other is off the court Houston could win 55.
It's crazy to me that people have the Clippers and Lakers finishing with more wins than the Rockets. Both of their duos won't be playing every game. The regular season doesn't mean as much to their team. Now they will be a good team and hard to beat in the playoffs. But they probably won't have home court against the Rockets.
I could see the East could get to 59 to 62. All depended on a good schedule, the Rox schedule wasn't that great to start the season last year, and with the suspension and chemistry issues a bad start was born.
last year when they set it at 56.5, everyone posted over over over. nope. dead wrong whats its gonna be this year.
