[//r00t 4 Jazz]

That puts them 4th in the West not bad, can't complain given some or most other predictions.

 

[Darkwing Duck]

No problem with them, really. He has a philosophy to start the defending champs number 1, so I don't mind Lakers being number 1.

I doubt the Thunder end the season there, but it is pretty easy to believe they will play well this year.

 

[Edgewriter]

Not bad. Still I see us 2 or 3 in the west.

 

[Dwill4mvp]

The Thunder caught people of guard last year.. But, still why is everyone hyping up an 8 seed team, that lost in the first round? Not seeing it...

 

[Marty McFly]

I like how Dallas is rated above us every year based on some stupid offseason acquisition that never works out.

Ya no kidding. Also struggling to get outta the first round. When we are not.

 

[Jazz4ever]

Dallas is seriously overated.

 

[Jazz Punk Rocker]

Heat underrated...Dallas, Boston, and especially the BUCKS are overrated

Bulls without Boozer makes them overrated too

 

[JoelHodgeJr]

I think Bulls with Boozer makes them more overrated. Noah better get started on the arc mark II because with boozer on the floor the other team will flood the paint.

Stein lives in Dallas, the Mavericks are always over rated.

 

[Ferguson_Mellochill]

I'd switch the Jazz and the Thunder.

It isn't just stein though when it comes to the mavs. They are routinely overrated every pre-season, during the season, and going into the playoffs
