Don't get why so many have GSW at #5 - I see them higher. Don't see HOU beating SAS yet - they're young - it'll take them awhile to gel together.

Portland being slept on again...no one even mentioned them fighting for the 8th seed...

Their starting 5 was in playoffs contention last year with basically no bench, and now they've loaded it with McCollum, Wright, Robinson, Watson, and Crabbe...

POR has a good squad, but I can see the 8th Seed go to plenty of teams.

Holiday, Gordon, Evans, Anderson, and Davis is a good lineup and will be hard to beat.

[Myth]

Most teams are 10 games in. Anybody feel like modifying their predictions?

[SacJB Shady]

Honestly won't be surprised if warriors barely make it. Health is never guaranteed. The Warriors just have bad luck imo. It's always something. Always an excuse. Other teams just take care of business. they make no excuses.

[AI Thornton]

Time to start checking trends.

[Myth]

Why are you applauding predictions that are so far pretty far off? Is that your old account?

[rufuspaul]

It's funny how many people had the Knicks and Cavs in the East. I had them there too last summer.

[ArbitraryWater]

Why are you applauding predictions that are so far pretty far off? Is that your old account?

Don't. WayofWade is/was a damn good Poster, while Corleone/GoranDragon is pretty cringe worthy. I dont want him putting a bad name to LBJ Fans.
