Gonna post my predicks.
Heat: 60-22
Bulls: 55-27
Pacers: 50-32
Nets: 47-35
Knicks - 45-37
Pistons- 42-40
Wizards: 40-42
Cavs: 38-44
Clippers: 58-24
Spurs: 56-26
Thunder: 56-26
Rockets: 55-27
Grizzlies: 54-28
Warriors: 51-31
Mavs: 47-35
Pelicans: 44-38
I could see Atlanta swapping with one of the two low seeds in the East, and The Timberwolves and Trailblazers swapping for either of the two bottoms in the west.
Needless to say, once the playoffs roll around, I could see the Heat having trouble with Nets in round two since its basically Celtics 2.0...but they'll wrap it in 6. It'll be Bulls/Heat with 7 games, and I honestly don't know who wins. My gut says the Heat, but if Rose has been playing exceptional, who knows.
The West is harder obviously. I could honestly see the Clippers struggling against the Pelis (in the sense that the games will be close, not so much that the series will run long). Spurs will make a Texas mockery of the Mavs. Thunder/Warriors could be the best series all playoffs. Six games, with the Thunder riding Durant. Absolute shoot out.
I think the Rockets will be a first round exit, and we'll all have to deal with hearing shit about Dwight for another off season. Lot of shit will be talked about McHale's offense when really, the Grizzlies D will just stifle them, thats all. Then we'll get another Clippers Grizzlies series
Clippers will finally beat them. Spurs will beat the Thunder, and we'll have to deal with similar "he just doesn't have it in him to win it" talk with Durant much like we did with Lebron, despite the fact that his teams have slowly gotten worse each season. They need a better offensive big man and much much better third or fourth shooting options.
Clippers Spurs, six games, I think the Spurs win. And we could possibly have a rematch of last year's finals. If not, I think we have a really fun series with the Bulls/Spurs.
