at 12:15. He's the ESPN writer who claimed the Blazers were the team that could win the west besides the Lakers. Should be interesting to hear an "outside" opinion.
 
Recap:
  • Thinks the Lakers will win the west easily.
  • Thinks OKC will probably have a better record than us, but that they're too young to make the finals.
  • Points out that if healthy, we have the size to match up with the Lakers.
  • Thinks that Nate is one of the best coaches in the league.
  • Says that Roy shouldn't feel that he needs to handle the ball all the time because he--unlike Kobe, Lebron, Wade, Jordan, etc--actually plays with a true PG.
  • Says that Oden has, in fact, been a bust up to this point. Says out that Oden's injuries problems are impacting him as much mentally as physically right now.
  • Says Carmelo will definitely be gone by trade deadline, would be shocked if he's still there through December. Says Nuggets won't make the playoffs without him.
  • Wouldn't make a pick on the division, but mentioned how he likes OKC, and he thinks Jefferson is the key for Utah.
 
*Says its time to see if Al Jef is a 20/10 player on a bad team or a legit centerpiece! You fools who say K.Love is a centerpience, are just that

I agree with it all other then OKC finishing ahead of us.
 
I've always been impressed with Chris Broussard. He pretty much always hits the nail on the head.

I have heard a lot of fans say they like Kevin Love. But I don't think I have seen any of them call him a "center piece".....
