    Since E$PN isn't picking us bottom 8 you've started drinking the Koolaid?

    What happened to all your 20 win talk? Or maybe you've had enough crow.

    Even if the Lakers finish with the worst record in the league the statistical most likely pick they'll have is.... #4; which would go to Philly.

    The Lakers are another mystery team.
    They were smart to add Lou Williams.
    A rotation of Lou, Clarkston, Kobe, Randle, Hibbert, Nick Young, Bass, Tariq Black, is decent.

    They will be tough at home, shitty on the road.

    I think we're better than the nuggets, lakers, wolves, jazz, kings ,suns, and will be completing with the mavs for the final spot.

    That's what you think - until they finish the count down with the Warriors at #2, and realize they had forgotten all about us.

    Agree. They added Towns, who will be a stud and have some solid vets (KG, Andre Miller, Kevin Martin) to help their young guys learn how to win. Everyone talks about how young the Wolves are, but not really. Yes, they are building for the future around Wiggins and Towns, but they actually have an age diverse roster that's pretty balanced between youth, mid-career players and aged vets. I don't see how they can possibly be worse than DEN.

    Make the bet then. I bet you $100 the Blazers have at least 20 wins by the All Star break.
