The Blazers are going to be good, no doubt. But you just never know how things evolve. A lot of teams said the Bulls would make the Finals this year, too, and it doesn't look like that is going to happen (not that it still might not in some future year, though). I happen to like the Blazers' roster, though.
Plus, Kenny Smith has been wrong on a whole host of other things he has said about the Magic. For instance, last year, he said they would not make the playoffs. Granted, they barely squeaked in, but he was wrong. During the 2004 draft, he said the Magic should have taken Okafor. Plus, the Magic have had some Duke players on their roster and no North Carolina players (see why Raymond Felton is ranked as a Top 10 point guard).
