:lmao

How in the hell are the Mavs better than the Blazers when their best player in 38 year old Dirk & their 2nd best player is a toss up b/w Wes Matthews/Barnes.:lol They basically lost Parson/FeltOn/Zaza who were 3 of their top 5 players from last season & Bogut/Deron are bound to miss 20 games next season.:lol Blazers lost Crabbe but he was a luxury b/c of CJ being in the starting lineup & they replaced him with a MUCH BETTER defender/playmaker in Turner. Ezeli should give them the rim protection & toughness they were missing. Aminu/Harkless (if they re-sign him) should also be Most Improved Player candidate after how they performed in the postseason.

Besides, the Wolves remind me of the 2009-10 OKC squad & I wouldn't be surprised if they won 50 games.




East:

1- Cavs
2- Boston
3- Toronto
4- Hornets
5- Pistons
6- Washington
7- Bucks
8- Atlanta
9- Magic
10- Heat
11- Indiana
12- Bulls
13- Knicks
14- 76ers
15- Nets

The Pistons might be the 3rd best team in the East & I can see the Hornets sliding after losing Lin/Lee/Big Al along w/ Marvin Williams regressing after a contract year. Pacers might also be better than the Raptors w/ the addition of Thad Young/Teague/Big Al along w/ Turner making strides in this 2nd season.

I don't see how the Heat/Bulls are better than the Knicks especially when Porzingis is a guy that could average 20/10 next season.

Did you forget the craptors bro? :lol

Sad that Memphis is a top 6 team...:lol

Good point......... LAC is 2nd or 3rd out West though, after that blah.

[DMC]

Warriors seem to be the obvious choice for best record in the league but they were shaken up quite a bit so growing pains might keep them within reach so I'll say SA has the best record in the West.

Knicks... interested to see how they do.
