It's not that I don't respect or appreciate LeBron's greatness(you used to call him LeBish ALL THE TIME btw). But myself, and many others, believe this is the year he takes a small step back. This is also arguably the best this conference has ever been. If you don't have legit depth, and are great on both sides of the floor, you're not going anywhere. I don't think the Lakers are going to be very good as a team defensively. For my Spurs, they were a game away from beating the #2 seed Nuggets. If you throw in DeJounte Murray to guard Jamal Murray, I don't think Jamal goes off like he does. The Spurs will be much improved defensively with him on the floor. And I am somewhat banking on the Spurs Murray having improved his offense, because I've seen year-to-year jumps for Spurs players more times than I can count. Houston didn't get any worse than they were this year. Again, I'm not making Finals predictions, just playoff seeding. 3-6 is going to be as close as it was this past year. Now why would I call LeBron Butter and Jelly LeBish when he's not only my CURRENT favorite player (all time is penny) but I think he's the GOAT. Does that make sense? You're thinking of the OTHER black dudes in here bro....(I know I'm wrong, but it was too CLUTCH not to say it lol) So you're banking on this guy coming back and just seamlessly learning how to play with an all new roster while they're learning to play with him after a year off and he's gonna be the new Kweewee? Good luck! As far as MY Lakers are concerned, again, tell me who's beating ANY combination of our Hampton 5 in the playoffs IF fully healthy? Plus we're getting Iggy. IDC about playoff seeding MY Lakers play for championships!!! And again, unless MPJ comes out on a ROY campaign the nuggs didn't get any better. You guys are in for a long season of LA vs LA hype and BK vs Snacks chatter. It is what it is... My biggest prediction for the Spurs is to get a 7-8 seed. I don't think that's crazy expectations. DeRozan will be much better in year 2 of Pop's system, Murray will be improved, Walker will get minutes. The team will be AT LEAST just as good as this past year. And all I'm staying is that my Spurs squeak into the playoffs. You're in here basically telling us we're LeBron haters for not saying they're the best in the West. I haven't read or heard anywhere that they're being picked by anyone to come out of the West. Don't know how you can say that the Clippers roster outside of Kawhi and George is ish. They were the best team in LA last year, by far, and got everyone back plus 2 elite talents. Beverly doesn't even need to be a defensive stopper, even though he still is. Of course he's gonna give up 50 on KD, Durant had 10 inches on him lol. He'll never have to guard a guy even close to that size again.

Prime 100% healthy wade I would give the edge to but that's not who wade was when lebron played with him. Davis is entering his prime now. He's better NOW then wade was THEN, IMHO. Disagree. He may be more athletic but that Wade was a far smarter player who sacrificed for the team. He could have been dominant but deferred because it was what the team needed. It was Wade's team when they lost to Dirk. It was LeBron's team when they beat OKC

Enes Kanter: After I got released by the New York Knicks, I would always hear, “Boston Celtics, Boston Celtics, Boston Celtics,” but I never really got a chance to talk to them. When free agency started and the clock hit 6 pm ET, I actually talked to Danny Ainge. He told me about his plans and everything. Then, the second time he called me, I answered the phone and it wasn’t him. It was Kemba Walker and he was on Danny’s phone. Kemba said, “Hey, my man, are we doing this or not?” Then, he talked to me about the team and everything. That showed me what kind of leader he is, and that made me very happy. That was one of the biggest reasons . – via HoopsHype
What aspects of your game are you working on this offseason? Enes Kanter: Now, the league has changed a lot. There’s not much back-to-the-basket play anymore – that left – and that’s my game. Of course, with the league changing, everybody has to be able to make three-point shots now. That’s why my focus this summer is my three-point shooting. When I talked to Brad Stevens, he told me he wanted me to shoot threes. In the press conference, I was sitting next to Danny Ainge and he told me, “You know, that three-point line isn’t for decoration.” I was like, “Got it! Okay!” – via HoopsHype
