BTW, I predict the Lakers finish 6th in the West. Minnesota and San Antonio are clearly the two best teams in the conference. I think Dallas will be good this year, at first they made some dumb moves, but they ended up with Jason Terry and Erick Dampier to go alongside Dirk, Finley, and Stackhouse. Dampier will make Dirk more effective because now Dirk will be able to play deeper and not have to play out of his game trying to grab all the rebounds. I agree that Denver is still overrated, Carmelo Anthony isn't a superstar and Kenyon Martin has never proved to be a clutch team player. I was looking at the Kings depth chart and beyond Bobby Jackson they have absolutely none this year, which leads me to believe their aging team will be 5th seed maybe. Houston is probably the biggest gainer now, unless T-Mac gets greedy or something.
Here is how I see it finishing:
Minnesota
San Antonio
Dallas
Sacramento
Houston
Lakers
Denver
Memphis
