Sorry, but I have to say the Warriors. They also have young talent. They're going to be one of the team other than the Rockets I'm going to be looking at. I've been a Stephen Curry fan since his college days. Anthony Randolph also as much potential. The thing I would like to see though it the Warriors getting some defensive players. They have so much offensive talent, but they need defense. Just like SK brought up. "Offense wins tickets, Defense wins games".

I say the Thunder. First of all, Durant will be great. He will be in the Top 5 in MVP voting, although definitely won't win. He should have another great scoring season, although the presence of another great scorer [James Harden]. He is a great defender, but needs work on some places there. Russell Westbrook is, in my honest opionion, the toughest Point Guard in the league. He is also a great and under-rated defender for his size, along with being a great floor-general. James Harden brings more explosive offense, to this team, and I can see him already scoring 15 + in his rookie year. Jeff Green is also one of the toughest at his position, he can rebound greatly, and owns the boards. Something amazing for a young, under-sized forward to do.

Thunder. Warriors are close but they really lack some defense. Both teams have some young,raw talent.

I say Warriors, because they're stronger, faster, and more elite than last year.
Thunder would come close, but the Warriors have more depth.
The Clippers can't go anywhere until they get a better coach.

It's the Clips. The Thunder aren't going to make it this year, and the Warriors have a slightly worse chance than LA.

They improved alot this offseason (as they did last offseason). Even Mike Dunleavy (I think the longest tenured coach with a W-L under .400) can't mess this one up.

Mike Dunleavy is bound to screw this team up, also he might as well throw Blake Griffin's career away. He won't get any far in L.A. (Clippers).

The Clippers. I had them around the 5 seed last season. They have so much talent around them. They would have to work really hard to NOT make the playoffs...

I wanna say OKC but I know it's GSW. They have what it takes to make it.

Clippers can do it too, but we know how they tend to fall short.
OKC is a young team and it might take them a little while longer to get to the playoffs.

IMO, it's the W's.

Same philosophy, same weak leader. And we still have Nelly, who knows the Mavs inside and out, new players or not.
