We could win the division without him, the Spurs are aging and the Mavericks have been getting worse every year, we added K-Mart in the end of the season. TBH, we'll win at least 50 games next season unless theres huge injury problems, like 3-4 players are out for long periods, we already look great without even signing a free agent yet and we still have the MLE to use. Go check the thread in the Rockets depth chart, we are stacked. Yao should play though, we will limit his minutes big time, like have him play no more than 32 mpg, I am thinking 30 mpg, should be good enough to expect 18/8 out of him in that time period, in blowouts make him play less.
