Re: Season Predictions
Wow, you are putting a lot of faith in me. I really hope it will work out for ya lol, as I don't feel nearly as confident. This should be a fun post to revisit back later on the year!

Re: Season Predictions
Good job man! I love seeing all the predictions threads this season and how different they all are.
As for me, I will say I actually don't think we will make it to the ECF this year for some reason, but would be surprised if the Wizards made it to the Finals, just because the playoffs are tough and getting through the experienced playoff GMs of Dennis, Josh, Marcos, and even Silos is no small feat. With more experience, Gary will get there though.
As for the West, same goes here as I think OKC is MUCH improved and will be a HC first round lock, I really think their severe lack of quality depth and Andrew having to go up against the playoff regulars in bt, Doug, Brett, Kevin, and Kyrus is going to be an uphill battle.
Looking forward to seeing how the season rolls out though and who surprises or falls flat.

Re: Season Predictions
I bet Kyrus is negotiating a good deal with 8time right now and needed a bit of extra push. Or he's smoking some good shit. Really one or the other...
Congrats to season 16 ASL champion SoulKey. For the Swarm!

Re: Season Predictions
nope, I wish I had talks going right now but I don't. just hoping to see the "new champ every season" streak continue. I think that team really can put it all together. The top 8 in OKC is fantastic. When I look at depth, I'm looking at the quality of starters plus 3-4 bench guys, the only guys you're really going to want to see court time in the playoffs.

I don't think Darriun Hillard and Thomas Robinson as my 9/10th guys, are horrible either.

Re: Season Predictions
But to be honest, the champion is usually the team that's most healthy.
Whoever isn't injured, will win it all

Re: Season Predictions
The order was a little off, but you got 15 of the 16 playoff teams right (only missed Philly squeaking in as the 8th seed). Well done.
