So who are your favorites to win it this year guys?

Could Spurs do it again? What about the Cavs? Or are they still too green?

As I wrote some time ago then I would not mind if the Warriors won it. Stephen Curry is an amazing player.

The favourites are Hawks IMO. Their star of the team is the team unlike the other franchises. Also, they seem to be able to grind out wins when needed. I don't see any teams beat them over 7 games except the Grizzlies. They look really tough to beat lately.

I see the Hawks as outsiders. The question is. Do they have the experience when the real games begin (playoffs)? Also which individual can carry the team if they have a bad day? I am not so sure.

The Grizzlies are one of the best teams defensively (if not the best) but you can ask similar questions about them.

What about Rockets, Thunders, Blazers and Clippers?

The lack of experience might be decisive, true, but I'm sure they are aware of that. Whether they will be able to handle, time will tell.

I don't rate Rockets tbh, but I do rate Harden. If he's in top form come playoff time and Howard is fit, they are definitely in the top 3 of contenders.

Thunder have improved considerably after they traded Perkins and Reggie. My only doubt is Brooks. I have a feeling he will be outsmarted when the game is tight.

Clippers are chokers.

Blazers are in great form, but I don't think they will cut it in the end.

Yes it will definitely be interesting. I think that it's one of the most open seasons in a long time. Granted I have not watched as many games this year as I would have liked to but I think that it's a reasonable claim.

Let us hope that Lakers will remain in the bottom 3.

Great effort today.

Are you guys watching Shaqtin' A Fool every week? The one from yesterday was awesome. Otto Porter with one of the funniest moments of the season.

Nah, just saw the one you mentioned. Talk about being slow, lol.

The one with Kirk Hinrich was bad too.
