    Hurt his hand. Thunder are better without him.

    If OKC is missing Westbrick for a large amount of games, portland will win the division easily

    Bump. Can you believe this nonsense? Cavs will coast to number 1 spot? Bulls destroyed the Knicks and the Bulls have a better starting line up and bench than Cavs. Cavs will be lucky to compete for 2 spot.

    Thunder fans, we've been there before and still made the playoffs. We beat the Spurs in San Antonio with nothing but Bayless and Juwan Howard to throw at them.

    It's a long season, Durant is a good player. I could see him leading them on a big win streak when he gets back.

    Giving a 20 game cushion though? If Durant comes back any sooner, he may re-injure that foot. I have no doubt they make the playoffs, but winning the division is a lock

    I am also a Dellavadova fan. Of course he isn't their best player, maybe their best team-player.
    There's one thing to remember about the Cavs, though, they have a very good coach, probably the best coach Lebron ever had. Blatt is making Lebron play as part of a system, it'll take time getting used to but I think they're still the favorites in the East. I actually like their chances better after this game.
    I know Blatt well and I can see exactly what he's doing and I wouldn't bet against him.

    But does Platt know the NBA? Does he know all the opposing players and teams? It might take him a couple years to catch up and no, they won't finish higher than the Bulls.

    The Timberwolves are a solid team that can beat any team on any night.

    I think they'll be much better later in the season. Loaded with talent but I'm not a Rubio fan

    Rubio is awful but Thaddeus Young is a top 20 player in this league. They'll go as far as he can take them.

    They are young but actually pretty deep. Not sure Flip is the guy to coach them though
