Yeah, I watched the Bulls' preseason game against OKC a couple days ago and he already looks so smooth and confident leading the charge. However, I don't see them beating the Heat in the East, despite the quality of their defense. I mean, Jimmy Butler is better than I ever thought he'd be and Deng puts up solid numbers on a consistent basis, but I just don't see it happening. As for Westbrook, D-Rose apparently has been telling him to take his time on coming back. I agree. 2-3 more weeks isn't going to hurt the team that much.

But yeah, the Rockets are going to be legit this year. They're the closest thing I have to “a team” and I love Harden, so it's awesome to seem them back on top. However, I'm not a Dwight Howard fan. Still, his presence will be huge for them down low. Not to mention Terrence Jones seemed to be coming out of his shell even more during the preseason. I hope he starts the first couple of games. I think he's deserved it and that he'll do big things if he can be consistent (that was his problem at UK).
