The hunting of them began
Beginning with the re-modeled minnesota timberwolves which incorporated jimmy butler and tag gibson with town and wiggins, they seem to be the main ones to dethrone those of the bay

Without forgetting such equestrian as san antonio, clippers and jazz that can fight, this conference today more than ever can be called the wild west.
Can any team dethrone GSW? What do you think?
Thanks for the good article
I think the CP3 addition helps, especially since Paul has said that he wants to get off the ball more and share ball handling duties (and Harden has said the same thing as well). They still don't have enough to compete with the Warriors though. OKC signed Patterson for cheap just recently, and they got a good looking squad forming. They probably have the best defensive matchup against the Warriors in the entire NBA, but it remains to be seen if they can score with the best of them.
Ultimately, with all the great moves flying around the NBA (including Hayward to Celtics), I still think it'll be Cavs-Warriors in the finals, barring any injuries.
Cavs vs gsw, I think the bucks or boston can take that post in the east. On Hayward he sure stays in jazz. But it is said that the Celtics can acquire rudy gay. Same as houston to carmelo
Hayward has already agreed to sign with the Celtics.
True, the Celtics are strong.I had not read the agreement yet
The CP3 addition on Houston makes little sense to me..2 ball hogs on 1 team?
Agree the T-wolves will be a force..but they're not quite there yet..not enough bench. Clippers are done, Spurs? Getting too old. Jazz better resign Hayward but even then..just not enough. OKC? Nahhh..go Dubs!
Yeah, it seems to me that Houston is looking to release a James as a pilot. How do you see a Cleveland?
As long as the Cavs have their 'big 3' they'll be a force in the East. Id expect to seem them in the finals again unless the Celtics make a big trade..which they very well might!
it is true
