NBA 2019–2020 The West Is Gonna Be Crazy! Go Lakers and Clippers! My Top 8 Picks For the West!
I’m loving the NBA right now!
Updated 7/13/19 Westbrook to Rockets is a good move! Rockets are back in the mix, but I think Chris Paul can help OKC too. Thing is for the Rockets nobody else will feel the ball and if Westbrook or Harden gets hurt they will suck! The same with the Clippers if one star goes down who will rise up. Cousins is looking good and he will be in beast mode! Can’t wait to see him too!
I updated my picks below.
I can’t believe I’m a seriously caught up basketball fan. I think I’m drooling. I got caught up with Kobe and Shaq days and have never been the same.
Thing is I don’t watch any games. I may listen to a game or two but primarily I go by stats and NBA highlights. I just don’t have time to go to a game as I get caught up with yelling and screaming and I can’t watch on TV because it takes too much time and I want to kick the TV in the face…so it’s best I like my stats! I know…some of you are yawning…
I’m a player fan and LeBron and Anthony Davis are at the top of my list, but I like Paul George and Kyrie too. I like Kawhi and I like his decision to go to the Clippers. It’s gonna be wild in Los Angeles!
Below are my picks for the top 8 in the west for 2019–2020 and I don’t see the Warriors, OKC, the Spurs or Sacramento anywhere is sight!
The Top 8 West
I say the Lakers will come out on top because of LeBron. Yes Kawhi has two rings and the Clippers will be a handful but I like the Cousins, Davis, Kuzma and the LeBron front line and it will be interesting to see them all get down. I know Cousins wants to redeem himself and I’m sure Davis is anxious to do his thing too.
- Lakers
- Clippers (so what you got George and Kawahi)
- Houston
- Portland
- Jazz
- Nuggets
- Dallas
- New Orleans
The Top 8 East Will Look Different 2019–2020
- 76's
- Boston
- Indiana
- Bucks
- Toronto
- Atlanta
- Miami
- Nets
I think the 76’s will come out of the East because without KD in the Nets mix they’ll struggle a little bit. Toronto will still be deep but they will have the hangover of the celebration in their system. The Sixers will be hungry to prove the doubters wrong.
Below were my picks for the 2018–2019 season
I really hope the Lakers make the playoff’s for the experience and for LeBron to keep his record of going to the playoff’s.
THE WEST 2018–2019
1. Warriors
2. Thunder
3. Nuggets
4. Trail Blazers (these guys are fighters)
5. San Antonio
6. Houston (6th only because Harden might run out of fuel)
7. Utah
8. Lakers or Clippers
Update 7/7/19
I was close with my speculations for the east and west at about 98%. So bet on my picks! Ha!
I didn’t see the Raptors taking home the prize last year but was happy it was them and no I’m not hatin’ on the Warriors…but wait! Yes I am!
THE EAST 2018–2019
1. Raptors
2. Bucks
3. Philly
4. Indiana
5. Boston (5th only because Kyrie keeps having knee problems)
6. Brooklyn
7. Miami
8. Hornets or Pistons
West takes home the prize, but not so sure it will be the Warriors!
