Obviously Im biased but trying to be as objective as possible I feel pretty confident about the Rockets being better than Denver and the Lakers....I feel like the Nuggets have too much going on, Watson restricted free agency, Jokic looming free agency, Aaron Gordon injuries, Braun making 25ms, very questionable bench


Wolves have their concerns too but I think they might be in a little better shape with their depth than people might assume

Its over for the Warriors, get ready for the Podz/Yaxel era


Grizzlies going to better and more competitive than people think
 
Thunder is old news and niggas don’t want to see the game so you at 10:30 est

But we still gotta respect KD and SGA in OKC
Idc either way nigga have you seen the NFL slate for Xmas?!?

Packers/Bears
Bills/Broncos
Rams/Seahawks

Gon be off my 3rd Coquito watching Rams and Seahawks do numbers

The only things I’ll push back on is idk about the Celtics and suns being that high next season

And maybe I’m a hali glazer but I would also pick the pacers over the hawks

Not saying these things can’t happen but for right now that’s the only things I would push on but otherwise I agree

Don’t gray matter me

You can make a list. Ultimately the nuggets, lakers, wolves have the better superstars and imo have better casts. Your superstar is going to be 38 in September, you're 2nd best players just shot 21% from 3, and you're 3rd best player is an inefficient big who can't extend the floor consistently, guard his position or rim protect. All you're front office did was add a healthy Fred van vleet, 33 yr old Marcus smart and bogdanovic I think my prediction is pretty fair. If im wrong I'll be that. It's just a prediction. But lets be fr.

All that and still won 52 games and was 2 games out of being the 3rd seed last year with no point guard all season lol

Fred and Marcus are imperfect players for sure but they fill a need that we simply didnt have plus Rockets have young enough players where you can still expect real internal growth and simply be better to guys taking another leap

Oh and we actually flexibility/assets to make moves and get better unlike Denver, Minnesota and LA


OKC/San Antonio the cream of the crop of the conference but after that is up for grabs
