    1. Golden State
    2. Clippers
    3. San Antonio
    4. Houston
    5. Dallas
    6. OKC
    7. Portland
    8. New Orleans

    9= Memphis
    9= Phoenix
    9= Denver
    9= Minnesota
    9= Utah

    14. Lakers
    15. Sacramento

    And Sacramento will be good enough to get homecourt in the East playoffs.

    Edit: I'm not going to change it, but I think I might have the Clippers too high. Might bump them down a couple of spots.

    Now that is bold! Love it!!

    I don't agree, but I still love it.

    Also, regarding Sacramento will they "be good enough" or will their "record be good enough"? Are you saying 15th record in west is a top 4 in the east?

    I look forward to seeing your eastern standings. Something tells me chicago is #1 in your mind.

    No what I'm saying is that the Suns ended up not the number 1 seed. They fell down the standings and into the matchup with SA.

    Neither, really, it was just my way of saying the West is insanely tough. Sacramento would probably not quite make the Eastern playoffs, because they're a poorly put-together team of flashy but inefficient players, but they're certainly talented.

    Flatterer! I don't care enough about the East, is the problem. But yes, if I did, Chicago would probably be #1. Thibs has done it before, and the Cavs will take time to gel. But if the Cavs meet the Bulls in the playoffs, I wouldn't bet against the Cavs. The interesting questions is, who's #3? Probably Washington, but Atlanta might stand a chance.

    There's a damned good reason I rule the bottom of the predictions list but Kerr did a great job and amazingly, Bogut and Curry stayed pretty healthy for a whole season. Losing Wes put a big dent in most predictions for the the good guys
