I think people are vastly over hyping Minny and Denver..

The only thing which can doom Miny is injuries. Otherwise they top 4 team easily. I watched few preseason games and yes it is just preaseason but their ball movement and offensive power is amazing. Roy looks as healthy as he was in his best seasons and they still have no Rubio, so just imagine what will happen when he returns.
Denver on the other hand is extremely deep, well coached and athletic team. They will be almost unbeatable at home. Iguodala gives them that glue guy who does everything on both ends of the floor. I could even see Denver finishing ahead of Spurs.

Regardless of who lands where...

I am very high on the NW Divison. Hands down the toughest one in the league. Minny, Denver, OKC and Utah will have 12 games against the other. Portland has some good pieces and deep pockets. They will be back in 2 years. So for the next 5-10 years (or longer) I can see the NW having almost half the elite teams in the league haha.
 
I think the X factor will be Minnesota, they could be very dangerous if healthy. Brandon Roy, AK and Rubio's return will the difference.


If AK plays all 82 games I am gonna go ape ****.

Your making good points, your just wrong. Utah is better than Minny. if i'm wrong and you are right and by the end of the season minny has a better record, i'll rep you everyday for a month.

that sure does not sound good for Wolves. Still should make playoffs even with Love missing first month of the season - I read he is out 6 weeks. So if both him and Rubio are back in December they will catch up. May not be in top 6 though.
 
Jazz blow out Lakers by 30 points.....and we get

.....2 minutes of highlights from ESPN featuring Kobe Bryant making 10 jump shots against us??? You would have thought the Lakers had won by 30 and Kobe scored 50 points in the first half! This is reason number 6 why I detest today's NBA basketball. Of course, reason number 1 will always be TOO MANY JAILHOUSE TATS!

I'd like to see the complete list.
 
2) palming is allowed. 3) traveling is allowed. 4) nobody can hit open jumpers at better than a 30% clip. 5) 90% of all NBA players can't remember how to run a play even after 2 months of practice. 6) dunking the ball is celebrated to the hilt.....even if the team who's player just dunked....is losing by 20 points!
 
1 OKC
2 SA
3 LAL
4 LAC
5 UTAH
6 DEN
7 MEM
8 DAL/MIN

Basically, I agree with Stoked, but I want to see the Lakers struggle a bit. I think the Jazz will be very close to the Clippers and can finish ahead of Denver.

Why? They didn't make the playoffs last year with Love healthy nearly the entire season.

The key is Rubio. He needs to get healthy for them to have a chance at the playoffs.
 
Same thing with the first game. 4-5 Laker highlights followed by.. oh by the way.. Jazz get the win. Cant stand ESPN.
 
The human body is a beautiful work of art. Any tattoo ink engraved on the skin of that human body desecrates that work of art. There is NO SUCH THING as a "kinda beautiful" tattoo! They are ALL disgraceful, disgusting and an abomination of the highest degree! NBA basketball players are the most putrefied and abhorrent human beings to look at in the sports world! I, for one, will be watching less NBA games than ever before.....because of reason number 1!!!
