    In the west, I like the:

    Lakers
    Rockets
    Hornets
    Jazz
    Spurs
    Suns
    Mavericks
    Clippers

    in the East:
    Celtics
    Cavs
    Pistons
    Raptors
    Magic
    76ers
    Heat
    Bulls

    In that order.

    Rockets over Cavs in the finals.

    I'm rooting for the Sixers, I think they will be about the 3rd or 4th seed in the East. Much improved team (on paper).

    You must have meant the NFL. A lot of people are so ignorant about the NBA.

    I gotta give JS props for this post. Though it's very negative, but could be very realistic.

    Don't get me wrong, I think the Blazers are stacked, and they WILL be contending for years. I just had to make some tough choices, and take some risks on my picks. To be honest, the blazers will probably make it. but weird stuff happens every year.

    Rooting for the King's... to get to 30 wins... but realize that's not likely.

    Also, rooting for Russell Westbrook to win rookie of the year.

    Not focused on much else.

    cant this same list be applied to football? It isnt because football is America's sport and basketball is...well...slightly more popular than golf.

    and I think the blazers will get either the 7th or 8th seed. I just dont think Baron will play 70+ games..and they dont have enough offense with maggette and brand now gone.

    It seems like the Sam Bowie pick all over again. I'm not saying Kevin Durant will be anything close to Michael Jordan, but it's looking like Durant should have been the pick there...

    i know..though if you ask me the stupidist move the blazers ever made was selling Moses Malone..we could have won alot had we kept him..imho
