So disrespectful to the mighty clippers! How dare anyone insult them like that???
[COLOR="White"]Stupid homers[/COLOR][/QUOTE]
LOL.... Or it's just ridiculous that Iggy takes them from a 6 seed to a 2 seed when every other contender in the west got a lot stronger. No logic whatsoever, but go ahead and take it personal!

I've said this in a few threads already man
It's my opinion that the nuggets are really good..and will get hot down the stretch to finish with the 2 seed

I am applying logic
look, I'm not as high as you are, obviously, on the clippers additions...odom is washed up..he can't even get around anybody anymore...they made a mistake letting kenyon and evans go...grant hill is 40...I really like bledsoe and crawford though..but they're front court rotation leaves much to be desired in my opinion
I'm looking at a nuggets team that was MUCH better after the trade for mcgee..so he'll be starting at the C getting the majority of minutes with mozgov backing him up...faried will be better in his second season and has anthony randolph as his back up...gallo will be good and brewer backing him up..they trade for a star in iggy, and lawson could be a superstar
didn't even mention andre miller..yes, I think they'll be the 2 seed..could be wrong, but it's a prediction bro

Re: Predict the standings in the West
1) Thunder
2) Lakers
3) Clippers
4) Denver
5) Spurs
6) Dallas
7) Memphis
8) Minnesota
I think the Lakers will win the west come playoff time, but they usually don't try that hard during the regular season.
I feel like Pop will rest the starters a lot which will cost them some games during the regular season.

Let's say Odom, Hill, Turiaf etc are scrubs right? Clippers should still be better considering they will have a full training camp, DJ and Bledsoe should improve a ton and Blake and CP3 will have another year of chemistry together. Under no circumstance do I see the Nuggets surpassing the Spurs or the Clippers outside of a blown knee or something from a star player.

I dont care. Put denver last - I've never cared about preseason picks. I just want Denver to earn respect. I'm only in this thread to laugh at you.
You on the other hand take it all personally and get so butt hurt everytime someone doesn't agree with your stupid homer ass. You whine every chance you get when you aren't too busy flooding ish with awful threads about what toothpaste Griffin is now using or bledsoe hall of fame induction date.
Stfu, stop crying like a bitch and let the clippers earn their respect.

Let the Nuggets earn theirs. Clippers advanced, Nuggets didn't. One team was full strength, other was decimated. Clippers>Nuggets at this point until proven otherwise. I like the Nuggets a lot and I personally do respect them but ranking them 2 and 3 seed? Get real people.

He did the same thing last season when the Clippers signed Paul. Every damn day was a new Clippers thread. The minute people were like "dude you're excited, we get it, but hold it down on the threads," we all got attacked, as Clipper haters." Then when the Clippers did eventually lose in the playoffs all he could do was through temper tantrums, and then finally lapped his tail between his legs and disappeared for a while. Looks like he's getting an early start this year.:facepalm
Anyway, Clippers higher than 4 -6 is ridiculous

Losing Jet and Kidd. Mayo is inefficient and no where near as good as jet and is going to be starting. For OJ to put up points he has to shoot the ball a shit ton, and dirk is going to be the one taking the majority of shots. Im not huge on collison. Kaman and Brand are question Marks. good enough answer? just my opinion. I think if yall make the playoffs dirk carries the team on his back more than ever

exactly. have i hyped denver or put them top 4? no, so stfu and stop bitching.
everytime someone says anything about the clips you whine like a ****ing baby. you are clearly the biggest homer here - hence you have no credibility on the clippers and certainly none on the nuggets or the rest of the nba.

Just ride the tide bruh. Same crap like last year, we had like 40 SUDDEN Clippers fans show up on here, trying to call out Lakers fans:roll: And when the Clippers started losing, then all disappeared just as quick. Let them talk, cuz they won't be around come midseason to back up any of it.

Re: Predict the standings in the West
OKC

6-8 could happen in any order. This is a wild guess past the first 4.

Re: Predict the standings in the West
So if they Lakers don't win the west, it's not considered a disappointment?
If they majority of people think OKC will win the west then are they the favorites to represent the west in the finals?
So if the Lakers fail to even make it to the Finals is it a disappointment?
genuinely curious to get some opinions on this.
I assume the team people pick to win a conference is the team they think has the best chance to make it to the finals from that conference, but i feel like ISH will crash if the Lakers don't even make the finals. Am i wrong to think that?
Once, the Lakers got dwight & nash all i heard about was how stacked this team was and how Kobe "sucks" if they dont win it all.
So i guess im pretty suprised to see people picking OKC to finish 1 in the west, which i'm assuming mean those same people belive OKC are the favorite to come out of the west this year.
[B]But i guess alot of people wouldnt be suprised if the Lakers didn't even make it to the finals??[/B]
I feel like no other team has as much pressure to win this year than the Lakers.
OKC is still young, so if they fail to win again this year its not like it's time to blow it up.
Miami just won, a lot of pressure has been taken off & they wont be scrutinized as heavily if they fail to win it all IMO
Spurs are old & declining nobody really expects them to win it all outside of their own fanbase (they are very dangerous though)
Boston see spurs

Not at all. How many times in the last decade did Mavs and Suns have best regular season record? Nobody expected them to beat Spurs or Lakers come deep playoffs. Not many expected Cavs to beat the Celtics either when they had best regular season record.
