Am I the only one that thinks Utah will be better than Denver?
Utah should have been a sixth seed last year. They should contend for homecourt this year........until you remember who our coach is.

Wow, Dallas goes from Championship to 7 seed to lottery? I don't think they are finished yet. Also Houston has like 10 forwards and no point guards--who can defend that? And GS has promised that they are going to the playoffs and there is no way that Bogut & Curry both get injured again this year.
No, never. They promised that last year. They are **** top to bottom, left to right, inside and out. Piss on them for eternity. They win adn I riot. Look for me on the podunk Utah news. I will be the shirtless pale white kid bruning tires in the street and screaming multilingual obscenities right before they taser me into unconsciousness.

I think at 4 of the 5 teams in the division will make the playoffs. The Wolves probably won't, but that could hinge on how much Roy is able to contribute and as we mentioned, how well Rubio recovers. Here's how I envision the standings at the end of the season
1. OKC
2. Denver
3. Portland
4. Utah
5. Minn
I think the Jazz and Blazers will be very close.
I really thiink a lot depends on Batum; if Minny lands him I think they will easily make it to the playoffs, if Portland matches I could see those 2 fighting it out for the 4 or 5 spot. I wouldn't be suprised to see Utah/Denver fighting it out for 2 or 3. Anyways I'm excited for ball to return
They need to at least be near .500 at the break so they can't tank their way into the 6th pick. Knowing our luck, GS will finish 7th, we'll all be projecting our next franchise PG at that spot...and then they'll move up to #3 in the lottery.No, never. They promised that last year.

It's going to be a real dogfight (oops, I can't use that term any more post-Vick) for the last couple of playoff spots. And the middle ones may be separated by just a few wins. I can see Utah even finishing as high as 4th. I'm not overly impressed with Memphis or Denver, although the Nuggets will have Chandler for the entire season. Perhaps the Clippers should be considered favorites for the 4th spot.
That is possible but remember that Houston and Phoenix are probably taking steps back. And Dallas is going to be much worse.
A quick look at Western Conference Playoff teams
1. OKC
2. Spurs
3. Lakers
4. Memphis
5. Clippers
6. Denver
7. Utah
8. Minnesota?
Portland?
Phoenix?
A first year coach in Portland is going to be a downgrade from McMillan. No Steve Nash in Phoenix.
