Even the Nuggets won't be bad and actually could be surprisingly good. Jokic is a budding star (had the best RPM of any center!) and remember, they drafted Murray who could be a ROY candidate. Our division should be a dogfight. No patsies.
 
What do the Pelicans have to do with the Jazz, TWolves and us? Not in our division if that is what you were thinking.

Because I think we're still looking at being somewhere between 5th and 8th. The west continues to improve. The Pelicans are another one of those teams on the bubble.
 
Correct....Pelicans got worse. Most of us were commenting about the NW Division. Blazers, Jazz, Thunder, T'Wolves and Nuggets.
 
We were 15 games better than the T'Wolves last year. How exactly do they catch up with us? They still can't shoot.

The Jazz got a washed up Joe Johnson and Boris Diaw to go along with an average PG in George Hill.. Names don't equal success.

Denver will be better, but they only added Murray, who fills a need but they still won't be a good shooting team either.

Thunder will battle with the Jazz for the 6th seed. We will battle for the 3rd seed with the Clippers, who got worse with the loss of Jeff Green and the continued decline of Paul Pierce.

Lol a 32-50 team who replaced Gordon and Anderson with Solomon Hill and E'Twaun more will compete with us for a playoff spot? Lol.

I know they were hurt last year but they downgraded their roster. They won't get more than 35 wins.
 
Yeah sorry, I just don't see it at all. Like Joe Johnson and Boris are going to suddenly vault them into the playoffs? If our offseason was acquiring those two guys people would be shitting their pants in a fit of meh. I actually think they are worse than last year if they are playing those guys starter minutes. But what the fuck do I know.

Did I say that? I said they're on the bubble. They had a lot of injuries last year.

You're forgetting George Hill, who is their most important acquisition.

Thibs. Do not underestimate how great a coach he is.

He will make solid defenders out of anyone.
 
Thibs is a great coach, no doubt. However, if he follows form, half the team will be injured in 2-3 years because he overplays them.
He didn't play his players any more than Stotts does.

The injuries and prevention were not handled well by Bulls staff. They nearly killed, literally, Luol Deng. They sent a player into a game with a broken leg (Asik, I think). Etc.
