Predictions! Best team, Worst team, MVP, ROY, Title winner, Surprise team, Disappointing team

[alexftbl8181 [enjin:6648741]]

Best team: The Cavs! Only simply because there's not another good team in the East. The Bulls are the only other team I could see cracking 50 wins, but I think they're being pretty over hyped. The Cavs are deeper then people realise.

If they lost Kyrie, they would still win 50 games.

If they lost Love, they would still win 50 games.

If they lost Lebron, they would still be a high seed.

I see the Spurs taking a small step back, but still around 55 wins. The Thunder will win 60 games.



Worst team: The 76ers! Not only the worst team, but the worst team in history! Worst team ever in an 82 game season was for irony sake, the 72-74 76ers! at 9-73. The worst winning % for a team was the 2012 Bobcats at 7-59.

Lets compare rosters shall we?

Bobcats:
PG: Kemba Walker
SG: Gerald Henderson
SF: Derrick Brown
PF: D.J. White
C: Byron Mullens

I only remember 2 of those guys but they also had Diaw,Biyombo, and Maggette play for them as well.

The 76ers:
I don't even know. MCW is going to miss the start of the year. So Noel is somehow the team's best player. The guy who hasn't played in almost 2 years!, is a rookie, and scored 10 points a game in college. Lexi is going to get major time. MALCOM LEE will get big minutes. The rest of them I've never herd of.

MVP: Kevin Durant. Lebron's probably going to rest more, and have his stats hurt by Love and Irving. Durant turned 26. He's going to put up an historical season. No one will be close

ROY: Parker. ROY usually goes to the best scorer. Parker is really good at this, and will beat our boy Wiggins for the award.

Title Winner: Cavs. Duh

Surprise team: The Bucks. They'll be the 8th seed.

Disappointing team: Warriors. I think they'll battle for the 7-8 spots just based on the difficultly of the West

Agree with most of your picks. Wiggins will be ROY, and I think CP3 will be MVP

[Camden [enjin:6601484]]

MVP: LeBron James. Best player in the world with even more spotlight on him. Yeah, this one's an easy pick.

ROY: Could see either Parker or Wiggins winning this, but I'll be a homer and say that Rubio feeds Wiggins enough easy buckets to get his offensive stats good enough to compete with Parker's. On defense it's not even close. Playing with Rubio and Pek should allow for enough space for Wiggins to operate at a good enough level.

NBA Champ: Cleveland Cavs. LeBron, Love, Kyrie. I'm not going to explain this too much.

NBA runner-up: San Antonio Spurs. I'll never count them out as long as Pop is still coaching.

Surprise team: Minnesota Wolves. We're being projected to win 20-25 games. I think we're going to be much better than that.

Surprise playoff team: Brooklyn Nets. Lopez is back and healthy. D-Will has looked great in pre-season. Think everyone's sleeping on them. Could be a six-seed in the East.

Disappointing team: New Orleans Pelicans. Apparently Anthony Davis is already the third best player in the league with how much hype he's getting. Ridiculous amounts of praise for that guy. They acquired Asik and some other pieces. They'll be better, but they won't be a playoff team. Davis isn't a top-three PF in basketball and certainly not a top-five player in the league. Pelicans won't get it done.

Best team: spurs- never underestimate the spurs

Worst team: sixers - a d league team

Mvp: durant - its between him and lbj and i see lbj getting lots of rest this season, durant will bring the numbers.

Roy: wiggins - been saying it from the start. He will surprise a lot of people, thats saying simething for a number 1 pick that was traded before the season.

Title team: spurs

Surprise team: wolves - we will win 10-15 more games than what we are projected to win.

Disappointing team: rockets - they screwed themselves in the offseaso. They are a howard or harden injury away from missing the playoffs.

Best team (in terms of talent): Cavs...they are absurdly talented

Worst team: 76ers

MVP: James

ROY: Wiggins. He is the most talented rookie, and Flip will give him minutes

Title Winner: Spurs- they'll beat the Bulls in the finals. I'm not ready to put Kevin Love in the finals until he can prove he can make it to the playoffs...baby steps

Surprise team: I agree that the Wolves will win many more games than the bookies are projecting, but then again, I think this every year.

You're ready to throw jabs at Love for never carrying a team to the playoffs, but neglect that Rose has played in 49 games over the past three years. Whatever you say, LST.

Just curious...do those 49 games played include or exclude the 22 playoff games Rose has played over the past three years?

22 playoff games my ass. He got injured in Game 1 of the first round against Philly in the 2012 playoffs (2011-12 season). Try again?
