The west is wide open I could see them and a lot of other teams making a run. Thunder are favorites out west IMO.

If Blake ever develops even a 10 footer.........They'll be dangerous.......we will see how the trade deadline goes

If they could bring in one or two more pieces by the deadline they will be a real contender. Top teams in the west IMO:

1. Thunder - Real good all around team with lots of young talent
2. Mavericks - Aren't playing like it now but they are the defending champs and they have a lot of talent, will be a threat come playoffs because of experience just like the Celtics have been recently
3. Lakers - Kobe is playing out of his mind, they have experience and a winning attitude, if the talks are true and they sign Arenas they will be better. Plus I think they end up with Dwight.
3. Clippers - Right now they are tied with the Lakers, it comes down to health come playoff time and what is done between now and the trade deadline. They have great talent and are young.

I really don't know if Gilbert makes anybody better....and if they land Dwight...its over....for everybody.

Agree with winner, Arenas is a non factor.

I understand he isn't great but if you add a decent scoring pg to pick up some minutes from fisher they are gonna get better. So I'm gonna disagree and say Gilbert although isn't great he is still a factor

Agreed winner. That's why I think they end up with Howard. They need it, Howard wants it, and the Magic don't wanna just lose him in free agency.
