Predict the West
Posted on 9/17/19 at 2:14 pm
Posted on 9/17/19 at 2:14 pm
Let's have a little fun and make some predictions. I'll start.
1. Houston
2. Los Angeles Clippers
3. Los Angeles Lakers
4. Utah
5. Denver
6. Golden State
7. Portland
8. New Orleans
9. San Antonio
10. Dallas
11. Oklahoma City
12. Sacramento
13. Memphis
14. Minnesota
15. Phoenix
When I look at our roster, every time I think, "there is no way that there are 8 teams better than us in the West." Then I look at how loaded the West is, and I cringe. I believe we have what it takes to get into the playoffs.
What do y'all think? Let me hear your predictions

i'll play
1. Nuggets - Semi safe bet and i'm ready to see MPJ get after it
2. Clippers - Could very easily get the #1 but i'll say it might take them a little time to gel
3. Golden State - I personally dont think they will take that big of a step back and it wouldnt surprise me if they get the #1 seed. I cant see them falling any lower than #3
4. Houston - No idea how well the Harden/Westbrook experiment will go so i cant really put them as a better regular season team than they were last year
5. Utah - I think #3 is the ceiling and #7 is the floor
6. Portland - IMO they take the biggest hit with so many teams getting better in regards to chances to get out of the West or at least to the Conference Finals
7. Los Angeles - Eh, whatever
8. San Antonio - I think its close between San Antonio, Sacramento, Dallas and the Pels. As much as I want to say the Pels i'll go the safe bet and be pleasantly surprised if we do get it. Whoever gets in will have earned it, it's going to be brutal.

I love the fact that you could legitimately make an argument for several teams to win the West. It’s going to make for one heck of a season
Posted on 9/17/19 at 3:57 pm to tywells1986
1. Utah
2. Denver
3. Clippers
4. Houston - will lose to GSW in playoffs
5. GSW
6. Lakers - will get swept by Clippers
7. Portland
8. San Antonio
9. New Orleans
10. Sacramento
11. Dallas
12. OKC
13. Minnesota
14. Memphis
15. Phoenix
and i think 9,10,11,12 all finish with at least 40 wins, but the 8th spot will have 47 wins.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. I predict that the 10th seed will be less than 4 games behind the 5th seed.

You know Bron will have that load management. Houston is a regular season team. They will lose in the playoffs like always but get a high seed. Denver and Utah I could also see.
1. Denver
2. Houston
3. Los Angeles Clippers
4. Utah
5. Los Angeles Lakers
6. Golden State
7. Portland
8. New Orleans/San Antonio/Sacramento/Dallas
I give very little chance to Minnesota and zero chance to Memphis and Phoenix.
Pels have some of the best depth in the league which is a recipe for a good regular season team.

I'm hoping the lakers can work their way up to a 2 or 3 seed and get swept by NOP in the first round

Since we won’t make the playoffs, can we win the lottery again? That was fun.

If the Lakers end up being good enough to be a 2 or 3, why would you expect us to beat them? Much less sweep them. If they play that good during the regular season that means two of the best players in the NBA are both playing really well and that the lack of depth doesnt matter as much as most expect.
I wouldnt hope for that.

Respect my list #geauxpels

You got Denver twice
Posted on 9/18/19 at 3:29 pm to tywells1986
My head says the Pels have no chance to make the playoffs, because the west is too deep. But somebody in that top tier could collapse, because of injuries, or something else unforeseen. I feel like New Orleans will improve as the season progresses, and it will be good enough to get in.

1. Rockets
2. Jazz
3. Clippers
4. Lakers
5. Warriors
6. Pels
7. Nuggets
8. Blazers
I think Denver comes back down to earth a bit. Utah the surprise contender. Warriors vs Lakers in a crazy 1st round. Mavs and Kings just miss out. San Antonio finally misses the postseason.
