Wrote about my Lakers, now to write about other teams in the playoffs.

THE NBA PLAYOFFS ARE APPROACHING LADIES AND GENTS! Time when the real season for many teams begins. 
As you all know from my previous basketball related post i am a Lakers fan and see a 3peat coming, but I will talk about other teams now!

First this post will be about the Western Conference teams:

The Lakers- Struggling right now, but once this real season begins....IT'S ON. Mission for the 3peat.

1. The Thunder- Great young team. Very hungry to get deeper into the playoffs, unlike last season loosing in the first round. This team is one of the future elite west teams. If the players continue to get better, which they will. They will be tough in the playoffs. They fight. They find a way to win. 

2. The Spurs - Can't overlook the Spurs. No matter how many people bring in the "old" factor, you just can't overlook them. 

3. Mavericks- I don't know. I can't really put Dallas as serious contenders. They don't do as well as we all know they could do in the Playoffs. 

4. Nuggets- A surprise team! Been playing great after the Carmelo trade, and they have the pieces to get to the 2nd round, but will they? We'll see. Specially since from the standings as of now...they play the Thunder.

5. Blazers- They are a nice young team ready to fight in the playoffs. They will be a challenge for whatever team they face. Not legit title contenders in my opinion, but they can challenge and surprise.

6. Hornets- Without David West, and facing the Lakers by the looks of it for the 1st round...I don't think they will make it to the 2nd round, but can give my Lakers a challenge specially when your point guard is CHRIS PAUL.

7. Grizzlies - Great young team. Could surprise, Probably will give the Spurs a challenge.

Out of the West I obviously take the LAKERS, because they are on the mission for the 3peat. They will wake up and play better in the playoffs.
