Talk about a complete collapse, and Paul is starting to show his age. They lost a lot of glue guys. So, do they right the ship and make it, and if so what seed? Or is just the start of the end?

I think the Rockets will get things turned around and make the playoffs, but it will likely be a lower seed.

As bad as they have been, they are 11-14 and only 2.5 games out of the 8 spot.

Having said that, I also think that this is the beginning of the end for this team. CP3 has been injury prone for years and now age seems like it's becoming a factor for him too.

CP3 is going to be a pretty huge cautionary tale for anything thinking of extending a 30+ year old point guard for big money.

Agree. I understand that the Rockets were going all in on trying to win last year or this one. But he was already having injury issues with the Clippers. Not sure why the Rockets would think it would be any different in Houston than it was in LA.

Didn’t Harden win the MVP last year? How many times has a team with the MVP missed or barely made the playoffs?

I think its still to early in the season to write them off. If they pull it together, they could make a run.

They really hurting at PF. P.J. Tucker is fine and all, but can't be a 35-minute-a-night player at this stage...

Can't blame them for taking a shot. Came a game from the NBA finals where they would have likely been favored. Took a swing for the fence and it almost worked.

Flip a coin.

With all but one team in the West being within 6 games of each other....ANYTHING could happen.
