The only thing Golden State could be top 4 in is guard depth.

This is utah they were heavily injured last, top 8 min per game players missed a combined 115 games, so long as they dont trade booze I think they are here and have a shot at being even higher.

Even if they don't trade boozer I think it will affect them negatively because of all the rumours about him being trades his jersey going on sale, issues may come up in the locker room as well. Utah has always been somewhat of a class act (excluding marc jackson and what he tried to do to stockton) so I wouldn't be shocked if they pulled it together and took this spot.

It would be interesting to see what the results would be if we were to make a rule where you must vote for a team other than your own.

I really hate doing this because I hate utah with a passion. But I guess I will defend them this once. I dont think boozer will be a distraction, he has the most motivation of anyone to be a class act and play hard as he is looking for a big contract in a yr that has a lot of deserving players. So not only will he be giving max effort but he wont want to be perceived as any kind of a bad guy especially considering his history. On top of that they have two other major rotation guys in contract yrs plus its unlikley they will suffer the extreme injuries they had last yr. Add it up and utah scares the hell out of me as a blazers fan. Its possible they choke but given their coach and their talent I could see them being really good next yr.

I'm surprised no one is saying the Hornets. Maybe they do better when no one expects it.

I'll go Utah here. I assume they'll trade Boozer before the season starts and their lineup and chemistry will be fine with Deron, Brewer, AK, Millsap, Okur

Re: Western Conference: #5 seed (5 of 8)
I going with Dallas I love how they pulled it together at the end of the sseason running over teams. I reall wanted to play thyem in the first round last year oh well. I like the players they added too, but I have problem for not addressing the center position. I think they should try the NJ thing, put some highflyers around Kidd. Kidd/Terry/Howard/Marion/Nowitzki any of those guys can finish at the rim.
