NBA Poll: Weakest Western Conference Team?

[Mermaidman]

I'm a Dallas fan and was wondering which of the top four Western Conference teams is the weakest. Lakers will eternally own Mavericks, so that's a bad matchup. Spurs have big men that will beat up the Mavs. T'Wolves and Kings are good teams, but Kings have injuries to deal with. I'm thinking Mavs will have the best chance vs Kings. What if Dallas throws the last few games to drop to the 8th spot (Then again, who knows where the Kings will be at the end of the regular season . . .)

doh, you said Western...

Out of those teams I'd have to say the T'Wolves due to lack of experience and team chemistry.

i'd say spurs have the weakest team on paper, but they make up for it with their chemistry.

Da Clippers. They have decades and decades of futility

Minnesota, comes playoff time, they always choke.

i think the kings will bounce back once jackson and miller returns.

 

[RagingBITCH]

T'Wolves. Their "magic" season will go down the tubes in the first round like usual.

Only if webber goes out with a carreer ending injury. Sucks how they do worse when their "star" player comes back.

nobody in their right mind can expect a guy to play at the same level after 10 months of injury/rehab. i knew there was going to be a 'blending' period where they phase webber back into the flow of the team. its unfortunate that they are experiencing this slump toward the end of the season, when the lakers are in full health and ripping a new one for everybody else.

I have this feeling that our Grizzlies may end up in the #8 spot due to injuries (Pau's foot, Bonzi's shoulder). They've already clinched a playoff spot (thanks to Jerry West & Hubie Brown, aka, coach of the year ), so its best at this rate to rest & recover ALL of their players, so they can come out strong in 2 weeks. Besides, looks at our remaining schedule:

Apr. 7 - Cleveland
Apr. 9 - at LA Lakers
Apr. 11 - at Phoenix
Apr. 13 - at Dallas
Apr. 14 - Minnesota

versus Dallas's remaining schedule:

Apr. 6 - Seattle
Apr. 8 - Utah
Apr. 10 - at Seattle
Apr. 11 - at Golden State
Apr. 13 - Memphis
Apr. 14 - at Houston
