I wanna say they will make the playoffs, but I can't. The West is too deep.

I say 43-39 and 9th in the West.

73-9. Not sure where that would put us.

Well considering our roster isn't set for the season, a decent starting SF will solidify this team..

If we can stay healthy, I see no reason why we can't battle for a 6-8 seed

Who do you think will fall out? Last year, it seemed pretty clear that the Lakers and Nuggets would both have down years. It's tougher to pick a team this year, though.

7th. 48 wins if we can stay healthy


i think Memphis and HOU are 2 teams that could possibly slip that were in the playoffs last year.

I could see anywhere between 5-8. Only teams with more talent are Clippers/Thunder/Spurs IMO. The only thing the team is missing is experience. Our oldest player (Asik) basically quit on his team last year.... I really hope dell goes out and gets one solid vet for the bench.

Obviously depends on health. I think they will be better than people think. My biggest concern continues to be Monty but I can see them being as high as 6th. They are on par with Memphis, Phoenix, Golden State, etc.

Spurs
OKC
Mavs
Clips
Rockets
Blazers
Pels
GSW

Why would we rest our starters the last game?

They're going to be pretty good still, but last season, Aldridge missed 13 games and Portland's other 4 starters missed ZERO. Golden State also looks like they may (willingly) take a step back if they facilitate the love trade with Klay going out and picks coming in.

Spurs
Thunder
Rockets
Clippers
Blazers
Warriors
Mavs

I think are all locks or at a least teams that should go to the playoffs (barring injury) so I'd say 7th or 8th seed is reasonable

But the Suns and Grizzles are right there too

I think the Warriors are an Steph Curry injury away from being miserable, same could be said about the Rockets and Howard. The team I am most scared of is Memphis actually. VC was a good pickup for them.

I think we can be at least the 1st seed in the west.

I think we'll battle the Suns for the 8th spot. I see the Grizzlies dropping off.
