Predictions on Standings

Both conferences. Total wins and total losses should both equal 1080.

I'll give mine some thought but figured I'd post our usual thread to see predictions.

Lets assume Harden is traded for LeVert, Dinwiddie, Allen and Prince. Nets should really go for Tucker too.

Training camp starts in three days...do you think that Harden and Westbrook are gonna be traded that late?

I think they will wait until the deadline... but IDK.

I don't know who will want Westbrook. But I would say the odds are slightly better than 50% Harden is traded, unless Brooklyn simply doesn't want him. I don't know if D'Antoni liked coaching him or not. I don't think by nature D'Antoni likes iso much.

Idk but as painful as Kyrie and KD are as personalities, I really love Kyrie's game. And of course to see Steve Nash and MDA get a ring together would basically fulfill everybody's childhood dreams here even though they're not even coaching the Suns. I think we have a chance to finish 4th-8th. Maaaaybe 3rd depending on the defensive development of Booker and offensive development of Ayton. But as far as contenders, I'd really love it if the Nets went all the way.

Condensed season with a lot of back to backs? Lakers won't even worry about getting 1st. They'll end up 4th. Same with clips. I'll go:

Nuggets
Mavs
Portland
Clippers
Lakers
Suns
Pelicans
GSW

I know it sounds crazy to do it like this, but LeBron, Leonard, CP3 are all gonna be sitting out a few games a month. Young teams who can get hot will do better than usual this year. Just my guess.

Not sure where to put it, but I've been looking at this, and could not come up with my numbers - yet.

However, it just occured to me that I still don't trust Zion to make it through an NBA season without sitting out the half of games due to injuries. Kinda feel sorry about it, but not surprised - he is a lot heavier than Grandma used to be, and he also always had problems becouse of it, and a pretty short carreer. If I were the Pels I'd try to trade him just about now for a couple unprotected picks in 21 and 22 and a good(ish) young forward. Kick in the nuts short term for sure, but 5 years from now it would be viewed as a good move by pretty much everyone, I'm fairly confident in this. 21 is supposed to be a deep draft, and 22 is supposed to be a double draft.
