False.. ..Ryan Bowen dunked twice last year..Both were in preaseason.. So i dont think he'll dunk in season. T/F Houston Rockets will be above 6 spots in playoffs.
True This rockets team is way better than the team it had when we were the fifth seed against the Mavericks. We now have a lock defender, a lockdown defender off the bench a dominant yao and hopefully a healed mcgrady along with a true point guard. Fact or Fiction. Houston will draft the next Chinese Sensation Yi JianLian next year if they have a shot at him.
False T/F: Rafer Alston will bicker with a teammate or someone in the coaching staff before the season is over, thus, screwing himself over, and the team.
True. Yao was pretty much the most dominant center in the league for the second half of the season, and with Shaq as pretty much the only rival in terms of dominancy, he'd definitely be in the top three. F/F: The Rockets will tear down and rebuild around Yao next season, trading almost all of the roster.
False the rockets will reach the second to conference finals next year and everyone will be satisfied adding better role players. Fact of Fiction Spanoulis will make a great impact this year.
fact...his impact right now is expected be around 4 ppg, but I think his showy plays and playmaking ability will really help. f/f Juwan howards is not traded at all.
Fact: We would only get someone worse back in return. Howard imo is better suited off the bench against 2nd string PF's...we can still use his one and only asset which is knocking down his arcless midrange jumper. F/F: Deke will give us a good 8-10mpg as backup C in his final season.

F/F: Jeff Van Gundy will be fired after this season (or quit), and the Rockets bring in a younger more offensive oriented coach.

Besides, what does a young coach have anything to do with it? T/F: The team signs a starting powerforward sometime before the season starts.

He'll also inject some much needed energy in a truly lifeless team. Anywayz, back to the point. False, we don't have enuff to offer to get a starting PF. Maybe another back up, but I doubt a starter. T/F: Rockets have a mediocore first half of the season, and make a blockbuster trade.
False the rockets will have a great season because before the season they trade juwan howard and maybe head and a first for a pf that can contribue now. T/F will the Rudy Gay trade haunt the rockets for the future.
hmm.... True: I think Gay can become something great in the NBA. We will regret not picking him just like R. Lewis and R. Jefferson. T/F: Snyder will start over Head, and develop into a good role player/contribute.
False To the question of whether Mcgrady or Yao avoid injury: False McGrady is too fragile I can;t remember a time when he wasnt injured with Houston or Orlando... and Yao doesn't look like he can hold his own against the Athletic big men of the NBA he's always getting dunk on and what not... He's begining to remind me of a slightly better version of Shawn Bradley True or False The Rockets just make it to the playoffs and get knocked out in the first round prompting McGrady to demand a trade?

Void everthing this noob said. T/F: The Rockets will have more wins (51-31) than the 04-05 season.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting tinyballer:</div><div class="quote_post">Fact or Fiction. Houston will draft the next Chinese Sensation Yi JianLian next year if they have a shot at him.</div> Fact. If they have the oppurtunity to draft him then they will. He fits many needs. Fact. Rockets will with more than 51 IF everyone stays healthy. f/f If rockets don't make the playoffs, Brandan Wright or Julian Wright is who we draft.
False if we don't make the playoffs we will try to draft kevin durant or alex ajinca if we are in the high lottery. T/F Snyder will become the star many convet him to be when he came out. JVG is the right coach for him to develop defensively and will allow him to develop his own creating game to become our next 20pt scorer?
False: I really do not want to trade him, but CD knows Luther is our most expandable trade asset that is worth something. We will probably use him to get someone how can start at PF and get some minutes behing Yao. F/F: Houston Rockets trade Luther and J-Ho, or something for Jarred Jeffries (Wiz just signed Songaila)
