Re: NBA over/under win totals
Johnd - I am semi-with you on Houston. They have one hell of a talented team. The only issues are 1) will Yao and T-Mac stay healthy (T-Mac finally did for once) and 2) How will Steve Francis and Mike James do in sharing the ball. Those are two me-first PGs with big heads. Could hurt a lot of team chemistry, which is what got Houston where it went last year. They didn't have near the talent they have this year, but they all knew their role and did their role well.
I think Atlanta is an UNDER. They are listed at 9 wins higher than they had last year. I do not think Horford and Law IV are worth 9 extra wins. They are also the #9 team in the East in terms of projected wins for the over/under and I don't think they should be there yet. Maybe in 2 years.
