Re: BBW's pre-season predictions this year? In no real order:I remember CB4 flamed at me because I said the Raptors will take the 5th seed in the Eastern, they ended up getting 4th and are fighting for third now.Some people predicted the Bulls to win the East, they are currently in 5th.I also remember people predicting Boston to get 2nd in the Atlantic, unfortunately, due to injuries you could say, they are last in the East.Nobody predicted Miami Heat to be fighting for 8th. The whole of BBW was wrong there.Nobody also predicted the Jazz to be behing San Antonio, Dallas, and Phoenix. We were wrong again.I also remember CB32 saying to watch out for the Wolves this season, they are 10th in the West.I myself said the Clippers would be back up near 5th, 4h in the West. They are 11th in the West.I also heard Randy Foye was going to win ROY. Hes not.Anyways its cool to see how everyone thought the season was going to go, and how it did go, espicially for me, I was really wrong about some teams, and some I wasnt, IMO this what makes the game exciting, anything can happen, and can happen at virtually anytime. I love this game!

I didn't do any better though.
Re: BBW's pre-season predictions this year? I was dead on with the Jazz suprising, the Knicks doing better than expected, I don't remember my other picks. I am still convinced that the Raptors are not a good team but are thriving off a terrible conference...I remember going at CB4 like a red-winged blackbird over the Raptors this off-season.
Re: BBW's pre-season predictions this year? Well BCB, they are obviously better than most teams in the East so they cant be that bad. They arent up there with the top 6 or so team in the West, and they arent up there with a couple teams in the east, but they have proven to be a pretty good ball club whether you are going to admit it or not. They were also without Chris Bosh for some time this year, so their record would be even better if they had him for the entire season. They have been doing well latley, they deserve at least a little respect.

Our schedule has gotten a bit easier, but we still did come along way. Keep in mind, 27 wins last year!
Re: BBW's pre-season predictions this year? I just love how TNT(mainly Barkley) say the Heat are gonna finish #2, and the Bulls are the team to beat. I love how there the team to beat, I mean, being in 8th seed, and 6th seed, and all. He said there the team to beat, and there gonna fight for the 3rd spot. Of course he said the Heat would be #2. Sadly, there #3...lmaoAll well, just wanted to post that somewhere, Barkley is just an idiot...lol

Yawn...- New Jersey shouldn't have been this bad, and you know it. RJ out for a little, Krstic out for season too.- The Celtics have had 2 or 3 players who have been healthy all season long. We should have been much better.- Wizards at 7, yup. I said that. But guess what, the East shouldn't have been this horrendous.- I picked the Clippers to go 6th, they are only 1 game out of the playoffs, so I don't know what your big fuss is. And either way, they are underachieving too. They had a horrible start.- Nobody expected Utah to have a start as good as they did. And even then, in that thread I said that I wouldn't be surprised if Utah took the division.

I think this year they have improved to 6/10...they are heading in the right direction and right now I'll give Colangelo a hell of a lot more credit than I gave him in the offseason...I was definitely wrong about him.
