The Northwest: Jazz, Thunder, Blazers, Nuggets, T-Wolves or The Southwest: Spurs, Hornets, Mavericks, Grizzlies, Rockets To me, it's a very tough call. I think it's a toss-up.
While currently looking very good, I see them as a good deal older and fading as the season lags on.......................
SW, If we were healthy then maybe the NW. But once they blow up the Nuggets, then if won't even be close with the Nugs and the T-pups being very bad.
Well, if you were to go head-to-head..... I think the Spurs are gonna come back to earth. Therefore, Spurs vs. Jazz - draw. I think the same for the Hornets. I think the Thunder are actually better than them. Advantage: Thunder Mavericks > Blazers Nuggets > Grizzlies Rockets > Wolves When the dust settles on the season, I don't think it'll be as much if a landslide as many of you think.
