Bold Predictions 2014

[BwareDWare94]

Make some bold predictions for the 2014 season. I'll start us off.
 
1. The Warriors land a top 3 seed 
 
2. The Pacers win a playoff series as a lower seed.
 
3. The Raptors compete for a top 2 seed in the East.
 
4. Houston sucks.
 
5. Minnesota competes for a playoff spot.

 

[Hurricane Season]

Anthony Davis wins MVP and leads the Pelicans to a top 4 seed.

 

[Thomas-Panda-Saxby]

Bulls finish with higher record than Cavs

Knicks make playoffs higher than seed #6

Monta Ellis becomes lead scorer in Dallas

Suns sneak into playoffs

76ers finish with worst record of all time

Rockets suck.

Wizards make ECF.

LeBron wins mvp.

Is it crazy that I don't agree with any of these haha.

I'll have mine later

 

[Hurricane Season]

LeBron wins mvp.

[elcheato]

Anthony Davis wins MVP and leads the Pelicans to a top 4 seed.

I agree with this

 

[buzzy]

Bulls win East
 
Pels miss Playoffs
 
Nets and Knicks miss Playoffs

 

[Hurricane Season]

Would the Pels missing the playoffs be more bold than them making the playoffs?
 
That team is an enigma.

 

[buzzy]

i have no idea

 

[Mobruler]

Andre Drummond is the 1st team All-NBA center.

Not really. I was going for "out there."
 
I really like this Minnesota team. They are not better immediately, but they are better in the future without Kevin Love.

 

[elcheato]

Minnesota would have to be a boarderline 50 win team to be considered competing. They ain't even close

 

[BwareDWare94]

I know it's a long shot. Just wait and see.

 

[elcheato]

They lack shooting, they're not really going to have much of an advantage at front court to make up for it, no one on their team can really penetrate whenever they want, and they have no dominant scorer. Based on their current skill level, its just a team filled with spare parts everywhere. 
 
They lost a top 10, maybe top 5 player in the league and added rookies. They're going to be bad. 
 
They have a good future, but now is not even close to the time 

 

[jonathanlambert33]

Pelicans will finish with a higher seed than Memphis and Houston.

 

[elcheato]

Memphis for sure. 

 

[jonathanlambert33]

Memphis for sure. 

 
I think both those teams have some things going on behind closed doors that could get ugly.

 

[elcheato]

For now:
 
The Spurs finish in the 3-5 range, ousted in the first round of the playoffs
 
Kyrie will lead the Cavs in scoring
 
Lance Stephenson finishes top 5 in MVP voting
 
LeBron does not finish in the top 3 in MVP voting and averages the lowest amount of points and rebounds in his career aside from his rookie season
 
Dion Waiters gets all-star consideration
 
Portland never really comes close to making the post-season 
 
Sixers run off a losing streak of AT LEAST 30 
 
Russell Westbrook averages 34 ppg while Durant is out 
 
I'll have more later

 

[CameronCrazy06]

The Wolves won't finish anywhere close to a playoff spot

 

[RipCity32]

Pistons make the playoffs. 
 
AS BOLD AS IT GETS.
