I never did change mine, but there are some big changes I would make. Bulls are the real deal. And Pacers are worse than I thought. Switch Pacers and Pistons, and I agree with this. I think Pacers could still end up 4 or 5 seed, but not sure they will end up our biggest competition in the East like I thought (which is a good thing). Bulls might end up being our toughest competition.

And in the West, I think I was wrong about Blazers being 3rd seed. Or Mavericks being an underdog. I'd go:

1. Spurs
2. Warriors
3. Clippers
4. Blazers
5. Grizzlies
6. Jazz
7. OKC
8. Rockets


I know with OKC's record right now it would be more appropriate to have them like 3rd or 4th seed, but I just don't think they can keep this up all year. I'm starting to think Jazz are going to have a good year. They could be 4th or 5th seed. I had Jazz at 5, OKC at 6, HOU at 7, and Grizz at 8 just now but changed it. The West is so tough to judge after the first three teams.

I also hope that OKC sees Golden State in the first round though. That would be entertaining. Well, we will see how competitive it is tonight as a preview.
