^Look at the grapes on this guy, calling Phoenix a playoff team before they've even found their point guard. Gutsy.

Don't really see how Washington can get to #2 unless a few EC teams become injury stricken.
I really like the Suns ability to score and I think Spurs and Wolves regress for different reasons. The Wiz have underachieved for a few years now so they're due for an overachieving year

Interesting confidence in the Spurs considering they lost their two best defenders and got no great defenders to replace them. That's my biggest worry about them this season, but with Pop at the helm, I have a feeling they will still be able to make the defense somewhat respectable.

For me, it's about confidence in Pop to find a way.

Spurs should call the Clippers.

We have like 5 or 6 pg's laying around.

Think Pop would fancy a slightly disheveled, mostly drunk looking Serbian?

The Change up....

East

1. Celtics

2. Sixers

3. Raptors

4. Pacers

5. Bucks

6. Heat

7. Wiz

8. Cavs

The Wiz can't depend on Howard and I'm not sold on Mahinmi as a full-time Center.

I am not fucking with the Bulls. Lavine will put up big numbers. But, nah.....

I will take the Cavs with Love, Hill, Hood, Clarkson playing for pride to sneak in.

West

1. Dubs

2. Rockets

3. Thunder

4. Jazz

5. Nugz

6. Lakers

7. Blazers

8. Spurs

We will all likely have to revise our list once the Butler domino falls.

decent job......

not great...but decent...especially in the West......Pelicans were the team in the West that I totally dropped the ball on- and Wizards in the East

Other than that my East is pretty damn good. I missed one team.
