What seed will the Warriors end up with in the West?

1. Spurs

2. Clippers

3. Warriors

4. Thunder

5. Rockets

6. Mavericks

7. Grizzlies

8. Blazers

They will be 3rd and a serious contender to come out the west (the 1st 4 teams are serious contenders, with the Rockets being somewhat of a contender).

Last year the Warriors pushed the Spurs harder than any team in the west taking them to 6 games. They're 2 deep at all spots. Iggy is a top 5 perimeter defender in the NBA. Curry and Klay are 2 of the top 7 shooters and will only get better. Bogut is 100% healthy and he can pass, rebound, defender, and score a little down low. Lee was an allstar last year. The bench has two solid backup centers in O'Neal and Ezeili. Speights is a solid replacement for Landry. Green is young and improving. Barnes going to the bench makes them that much better and softens the blow of losing Jack off the bench. Tony Douglas is a solid backup PG who can play defense. Looking at the roster, they can go small, big, defend, score in the paint, from 3. They're a legit threat. Some say injuries will keep them from getting a top 4 seed, but I think 3rd is good enough.

The Thunder are overrated. They lost their 3rd leading scorer for nothing and he was important to them spacing the floor. They only have 2 scorers and they aren't deep at all. Jeremy Lamb still needs to prove himself and was a D-League player last year. How in God's green earth people are magically predicting he will blossom into a threat in one season, and how the Thunder some how still remain at the top or best in the west after losing their 3rd option for nothing, and having their second option coming off an injury is beyond me. But that's what hype does for you. People will just magically gloss over your flaws. In no way shape or form will the Thunder be a top 2 seed. They will only be 3rd in the injury bug hits GS. If Westbrook gets hurt they can drop as far as 7th.

BQ: Warriors.

I would say 4th seed. Clippers being 3rd. and i would give the edge to the Pacers. yea, we haven't seen the warriors play yet but Pacers have Danny Granger now.
