okc/Dallas was a boring rear end game. at least the pacers/knicks and wolves/nuggets are entertaining

Donovan Mitchell is like Embiid in that he is a perpetual 2nd round maker but never had the teammates Embiid had

Looking back at my predictions to see how stupid I was WEST: 1. Nuggets (+1) 2. Lakers (+5) 3. Warriors (+7) 4. Thunder (-3) 5. Suns (+1) 6. Kings (+3) 7. Grizzlies (+6) 8. Pelicans (+1) --- 9. Clippers (-5) 10. Mavericks (-5) --- 11. Rockets (perfect) 12. Timberwolves (-9!!!) 13. Spurs (+1) 14. Jazz (-2) 15. Trailblazers (perfect) EAST: 1. Bucks (+2) 2. Celtics (-1) 3. Cavaliers (+1) 4. Knicks (-1) 5. 76ers (+2) 6. Pacers (perfect) 7. Heat (+1) 8. Magic (-3) --- 9. Nets (+2) 10. Bulls (-1) --- 11. Raptors (+1) 12. Hawks (-2) 13. Hornets (+1) 14. Wizards (-1) 15. Pistons (perfect) ECF: Bucks over Celtics (lol) WCF: Nuggets over Grizzlies (Nuggets can still get there but are probably dead lol) Finals: Bucks over Nuggets (lol) MVP: Nikola Jokic (perfect) Finals MVP: Damian Lillard (lol) DPotY: Evan Mobley (injured, probably would have been top 5 at best) Most Improved Player: Jabari Smith Jr. (lol) RotY: Victor Wembanyama (perfect) 1st pick in the draft goes to: Detroit Pistons (maybe) I was on the money with four teams, RotY, and MVP. I got all the playoff teams in the East right so I'm happy about that. I missed badly with six western teams especially the Timberwolves. On average my predictions were 2.27 off from how they actually finished in the standings Yossarian-22 has issued a correction as of 09:12 on May 8, 2024 |
