Poll: What # of Wins do the NYK get? For our Den/NYK pick? (Bragging Rights)

LOL. I'm the only one who voted under 17 wins. C'mon, people - it's far better to be happy than right, as any happily married man will tell you.

The better question is who will be worse Denver or the NYN?

I can see the Lakers and Minni still struggling because the West is tough & brutal if you suck, and as for the East Philly is still a mess and Brooklyn lost D. Williams, Teletovic and Plumlee and gained Bargnani lol so you know they are going down.

Poll selections are a little too wide... 25 wins vs 35 is a pretty big difference.
I'll go with 32. The holes at 1 and 4 are going to hurt all year, plus they have no depth.

Yea, this NYK/Denver pick is going to be a cherry on top for the Raptor's season/playoffs. I believe the basketball gods will grant us with another shot at winning big through this pick which has been a long anticipated coming/wait for our franchise. Feels like a promising year all around.

Who is Denver better than in the West? Maybe Portland/Minnesota or Lakers maybe?

Who are the Knicks better than in the East? Sixer ... maybe Charlotte/Orlando?

DEN and NYK are two teams with a great chance to launch into the top three at the draft lottery.

Knicks win 18; improve upon last year.

According to Shaun Powell, an NBA Writer, the NYK's 2015-16 season appears to be likely another throw away season. He doesn't even mention, the idea of playoffs for the Knicks, once in the article and suggests the offseason acquired players of Affalo/O'Quinn/Porzingers aren't going to help them win now at all-- a great thing for our us though. He also says that the NYK's franchise should be looking towards the future and presses the fan base to stay patient, which feels like the acknowledgement of the inevitable coming of another terrible season.

He also has an article on Denver's off-season moves and his own analysis, suggesting at the end that "another trip to the lottery won't hurt them" so expectations are extremely low.

It feels good to be a Raptor fan, right about now.

I think NY will be better than they were last year.. I like some of their players (Robin Lopez, Aaron Afflalo) and they remove Bargnani who's always been a minus player.

The East last year suffered from a lot of significant injuries though.. I don't think that will happen again this year. So even if NY gets more wins, they'll still hover around 12th/13th/14th in the East (but shouldn't be as bad as Philly).

Going to say 27 wins which will get them into that next range in the vote.

They're 2nd best player is Meyers Leonard........

Gerald Henderson and Plumlee. They have a lot of young players none rookies who could be a net positive. Also Ed Davis

[planetmars]

I wonder if Phil will end up trading Carmelo, and if he trades him, do the Knicks get better or worse?

A lot of young players = A lot of loses
