re: How good will we do this year?

I like Utah. I think Portland is too thin in that if either Lillard or CJ go down for long they're done, but they've made thin work the past few years.

Minnesota is going to take time to put it together. They're too young and have too many new faces.

The Clippers are relying on some injury prone stars. In the last 3 years 67 games is the high number of games played for Blake, 63 for Galinarri. Teodosic is going to have to ball out for them to be injury resistant like they were in the CP3 era.

I really don't want to like Denver, although if I'm discounting them for lack of guard/wing creators...
