    No love for Minnesota? I love their team. That's at least an 8th seed.

    The team we have today will not be the team we have on opening night. I'm pretty confident of that.

    The fact is Rockets and Spurs are in the same division, there is no way that they are both in the top three.....

    They can both be top 3. Hell, they can be top 2. The only requirement is that the 4th place team is from the third division.

    There's going to be teams that regress quite a bit. The improvements by the Rockets will probably be balanced by what's looking like a diminished Denver, a horrible Lakers team, a really poor Jazz squad, etc.

    Who are the Thunder replacing the lost production of Kevin Martin with?

    Lamb is still so raw, PJ3 is useless, as is Thabeet. Sefolasha & Collison are marginal role players. Perkins sucks.

    Reggie Jackson likely to step up another level, but how are they going to work those lineups given he plays the same position as Westbrook?

    I see Thunder taking a step down, even to 4th or 5th team out West. I'd bet big they regress unless they move Reggie Jackson for another asset.
