OKC's gonna be fighting with Warriors for that 5th seed, but i dont think neither one of those teams wants to see the Grizz in a 7 game series

we were the 6th seed without Iggy and with Bogut only playing 32 games and he was hurt in all of them. How do you have the best starting 5 in the west and end up with the 5th seed?

he's trained throughout summer, lost 20 pounds, he's running full speed, dunking, and performing drills, all coming after double knee surgery 7 months ago. He said it himself, there's no reason for him not to be an allstar again when he steps back on the court. Cavs know that, and they are planning long term for Bynum, whether he's there for the season opener or 20 games into the season, Cavs will still look look with their new core. Bynum should be the piece that puts them over the top.

Best starting 5 means what? You have a budding superstar pg who's never made an allstar game, and really good role players. Jermaine Oneal has more allstar appearances than everyone on your roster combined. Clips have 2 superstars, really good role players, and a hall of fame coach. Same with the spurs. Memphis has all star level talent at the 4 and 5. And solid role players surrounding them. Unless you beat the clips for the pacific crown, your not finishing better than 5th,

What the fukk does allstar appearances have to do with anything? Name a team in the west with a better starting 5. Name a team in the west that's better on paper.
