I really don't know what to make of the Bulls. They're such a bad fit on paper, but they have the talent to make the playoffs. I could see the Pistons taking a step back, and the Bulls making it in their place.

I'd say a 5 seed, possibly a 4 seed. But I do think we can beat anyone in the playoffs, maybe except Cleveland...but I kind of think we can beat them also.

I can see Knicks fans have yet to come to terms with having a unicorn. Year 2 of the Unicorn is going to be a big leap forwards. This is not just about the players acquired this off-season.

Re: Early predictions/wagers: what seed are the Knicks in 2017?
i bet my friend days ago that we'll be in the top 3. y'all are late 
but honestly, i don't see how any team but the cavs is ahead of us. obviously not counting potential injuries, we probably have better talent than anyone in the east (cavs included). the only issue is continuity. it'll take us a while to gel because it's a whole new team with a whole new coach and staff.
but then again, a lot of the other potential "contenders" in the east made big moves too. boston, pacers, hawks, bulls. Toronto lodt bismack but they are pretty much the same. i just don't think they have enough talent to f**k with us.
granted, we made a LOT more moves than these other teams did, but i think we'll be able to win games just on talent alone for the first half of the year. then as long as we begin hitting our stride after the break, we should be able to land in the top 3 - barring a bunch of injuries, obviously.

Hawks just lost Hartford and Teague. Sure hill is an upgrade but still lost their big guy.
Toronto will once again be a good regular season team
I expect the pacers to surprise people
Celtics and Cavaliers will be top 2
Bull Def making the playoffs on talent alone
Cleveland
Boston
Toronto
Pacers
Knicks
Hawks
Detroit
Bulls

We are winning about 45-49 games we just won't hit the 50 mark for some odd reason

Why not make it a poll? I'd say as high as 3 or 4, but I'm aiming for around 5 with something approaching 50 wins.

Why there are so many people thinking Pacers would be 2nd ? I must be missing something but I think Raptors are all over Pacers.

Everyone keeps ignoring year 2 of Porzingod.
The NBA is about to get an awakening.
