My lunchtime Interwebs browsing brought me over to ESPN...
where I saw these predictions/projections for 2008/09.
Funny this is -- I can't really come up with much of a legitimate argument to say why ESPN is misguided or flat out wrong in this analysis. They predict the Rockets to get homecourt advantage and be competitive in the typically ultra-competitive Western Conference. Hard to complain about that kind of praise. I mean, they did short-change us by 6 wins (predicting only 53) - even though I did a painstaking game-by-game analysis already and determined that the magic number was indeed 59. Yes, 59 - and that was me at my most objective and non-biased moment!
So - even ESPN likes the Ron Artest trade! Excellent!

I am soooo ready for the season to start!
