Interesting. The model thinks an eastern conference team is more likely to win a championship again

Actually it's more like 56-44. Which means an eastern conference champ is 25% more likely than a western conference champ. That's decent.

I hope it happens. Eastern conf is only 3 championships from the western conf all time.

32 wins? Somehow we’ll get sizably worse as we replace a bad WCS with a solid Dedmon, add CoJo/Holmes, and our core Fox/Buddy/Bagley/BOgi/Barnes/Giles doesn’t improve.

At least Joerger will be happy and get lapped up quickly

Wasn’t long ago the Bulls were slotted at 30.5 by Vegas (not sure what that number is now). I’ve been preaching what an easy over that would be.

I wonder why he has the Jazz so low.

Well if correct Kings going to get another great player to go with Fox and Bagley. I don’t think it’s correct but it wouldn’t be the worse thing.

If Philly makes it and Embiid is healthy. It can be a disaster for the small ball teams. McGee vs Embiid.

Giannis will be a handful to but his lack of a post game is a killer.
