1) With Trump put to pasture, Pop finally stops taunting republicans and retires in 2025.

2) Hawks will do better than expected. (Said this last year too, but they stopped fooling themselves with a Trae/Dejounte backcourt..)

3) Pacers and Sixers meet in the play-in round.

Ah excellent! I completely forgot about doing one of these. Thanks @bksballer89

1. Anthony Davis wins DPOY

2. Whoever win the NBA Cup, wins the NBA championship too

3. Clippers will be a lottery team

I'll post my top 10 in each conference a little later

 

[thunderc]

I’ll start with the easiest of easy. @fightinfunbags will not finish in the top 10 of the wins totals contest this year.

Bronny James wins ROTY and MVP

Going for the wild takes

Sixers make the ECF

Pistons make the play-in

Kings have best record of Cali teams

Alll realistic

Don’t see how the Pistons remotely come close to making that leap, but that’s why they are called bold.

I think the most realistic is the Kings, and that was made mostly to anger Lakers and Ws fans.
History and Embiid’s health argue against them, but the stats are due to align
And with the Pistons, if everything just goes right this homer pick could work out

Miami to win 50 games and top 4 seed

I do think the acclamation of Rozier and a couple other could extend their playoff relevance awhile longer, but 50 is an obvious homer pick...

Giddey will average 18 pt, 9 rebounds and 8 assists and improve his shooting.

How is it a homer pick? They won 46 games last year with Jimmy missing 22 games and Tyler Herro missing 40 games. If they just brought back the same roster from last year and had better health, improving to 50 or better wouldn't be a crazy prediction.

Thinking they win 4 more games than last season is a homer pick? Full year of Rozier and Jimmy in a contract year can’t them 4 more wins? lol got it
