2020 NBA Offseason Thread

[5th Letter]

Bucks should not be number 1

 

[Shaquille Sunflower]

Nuggets, Blazers and Jazz should be above the Clippers

I think the nuggets should be. You could talk me into the jazz but not the blazers

 

[5th Letter]

People were high on the Clippers this time last year. Now people are way too low on them. I think they’ll be fine they are ranked appropriately imo.

 

[Suckio Andretti]

so you think the rockets are the 8th best team in the west?

Going into this season? Yes

 

[Suckio Andretti]

all I’ll say is the magic are definitely not making the playoffs

have them 10-12

I change my mind about this I forgot these are power rankings

Wizards/hawks/bulls over the magic so that would make Orlando #11

 

[southsil4lil]

Philly and Brookyn should definitely be higher

 

[southsil4lil]

Idk how I feel about the Nuggets offseason....You lose Jerami Grant and dont have anyone with his defensive versatility but they got a good deal signing Green and bringing back Milsap, plus theyll have Will Barton(kind of underrated two player) who they missed.


MPJ is going to be the x-factor

 

[BDBOULIBALY]

I think regular season Nuggets will be just as good, I think they will have the 2nd best record.

Playoffs they won’t be as good as last year though. 2nd round exit. Possibly 1st if they catch a bad matchup.

 

[Trilltx214]

only see top 6 locked in 7-12 can flip
1. Lakers.
2. Nuggets
3. Clippers
4. Mavericks
5. Jazz
6. Blazers
7. Warriors
8. Rockets
9. Suns
10. Grizzlies
11. Pelicans
12. TWolves
13. Spurs
14. Thunder
15. Kings

In the East wizards or hawks could hit 8 over the magic

 

[Shaquille Sunflower]

I’m surprised y’all so high on the blazers

 

[AZTG]

I’m surprised y’all so high on the blazers

They made good moves.

If they stay healthy, i can see them staying around the 4-5 range. 3 if they get really hot. But around 5 is more realistic.

 

[AZTG]

I'd put the Suns up higher, or replace the Blazers at #5 with the Suns.

Nah

 

[southsil4lil]

I'd put the Suns up higher, or replace the Blazers at #5 with the Suns.

It'll probably be my prediction for the bold predictions thread but I'm very high on Phoenix

If Chris Paul and his vegan diet can hold off father time a little bit longer I think it's a chance they could compete for homecourt in the first round

Ayton is going to be the biggest benefactor of Paul being on the team, I think dude is about to eat this season plus
I'm rooting for Monty Williams

Rockets are too high.

 

[Chi-Town B]

Guess I’ll post the East too just for another discussion topic:

Offseason Power Rankings: Eastern Conference | NBA.com

See where all 15 teams in the East rank after a wild week of offseason moves.

1. Bucks
2. Heat
3. Celtics
4. Nets
5. Raptors
6. 76ers
7. Pacers
8. Magic
9. Wizards
10. Hawks
11. Bulls
12. Hornets
13. Knicks
14. Pistons
15. Cavs

No issue with the top 7, I would have the Hawks in the 8th spot right now

 

[Suckio Andretti]

I’m surprised y’all so high on the blazers

I’m surprised you’re not
