The only notable thing I disagree with is 3/4. I would be quite surprised if Portland doesn't finish w/ a better record than LAC next year.

Overall, West will be weak next season.

Barkley was brain dead in that video.
- KD is a great rebounder:wtf: he is definitely bringing more elements to that team than just more long range shooting. And he can take it to the rack.
-he listed teams they think they gonna struggle against and said the spurs twice:oldlol: they gonna face them in 2 different rounds.
- nobody is thinking about Portland. The Warriors gonna put all those players together because they concerned with Damian Lillard:biggums:

I remember SI projected the Lakers to miss the playoffs in 2008. :eek:
Yes, they got Pau before the deadline but they also lost the fast rising Bynum to a major injury. They didn't just got into the playoffs but they also won the West by beating the Spurs before bowing out to the Mighty Celtics who had 3 HOF's.

Cavs Warriors pt 3 is guaranteed. NBA sucks until then.

ESPN Logic:
Last season, Jazz lost Exum for the whole year, lost Burks for 4 months, lost Gobert for a month, and lost Favors for a month.
Predictions assume everyone is healthy and the Jazz acquired George Hill, Joe Johnson, and Boris Diaw as well.
All of that is just worth 5 more wins?
My list:
GSW
Spurs
LAC
Jazz
Blazers
Memphis
Minny
OKC
Dallas
Houston
New Orleans
Denver
Sacramento
LAL
Phoenix
