                    If Denver keeps Melo all season then I'd switch out Phoenix for them and probably bump them up a few spots (around 4-6).

                              MVP: Dwayne Wade <-- Everybody thinks Lebron will benefit more by playing with Wade. I think it'll be the other way around
                              6th Man: Taj Gibson <-- He'll get a chance to put up some numbers while Boozer is out.
                              ROTY: DeMarcus Cousins <--I'm going with the 'dark horse' candidate.
                              COTY: Greg Poppovich <-- Coach Pop brings the Spurs back to championship contending form
                              MIP: Aaron Afflalo <-- He's been excellent this preseason and I feel he's going to carry it into the regular season
                              Most Improved Team(s): Miami Heat <-- With the biggest free agency coup in NBA history, this is a no brainier
                              Sleeper Teams(not necessarily a team that'll make the Playoffs this year):
                              Sacramento Kings <-- With a potential ROY candidate in Cousins and a rising star in Evans, they'll be much better
                              San Antonio Spurs <-- When it comes to the topic of winning the West, not a lot of people believe in this team.
                              Eastern Conference Playoff Teams:
                              1. Miami Heat: Too much star power not to be first
                              2. Chicago Bulls: Only if Thibs is good as advertised and Rose elevates to superstar status
                              3. Boston Celtics: As usual, they'll start off slow but finish strong at seasons end
                              4. Orlando Magic: Out of the top teams in the East, they made the least improvements
                              5. Milwaukee Bucks: A scrappy team that'll fight it out with Chicago for the Central
                              6. Atlanta Hawks: Could be higher if they make some minor adjustments in their lineup
                              7. Charlotte Bobcats: Despite the talent level, Brown will get this team to play hard.
                              8. Cleveland Cavaliers: Just to make the first round of the playoffs interesting.

                              EC Finals Matchup:
                              Boston Celtics vs Miami Heat<--With home court advantage and more star power, the Heat pull this one off in 6.

                              Western Conference Playoff Teams:
                              1. Los Angeles Lakers: Kobe shooting for 6th ring, Jackson shooting for 12th.
                              2. San Antonio Spurs: If Pop can work his magic like I think he can, they'll definitely push the Lakers
                              3. Dallas Mavericks: Dirk and Kidd have one more playoff push in this team.
                              4. Utah Jazz: Despite the loss of Boozer, Jazz won't miss a beat
                              5. Portland Trailblazers: Roy and Aldridge make a solid tandem.
                              6. New Orleans Hornets: If Paul comes back to form, they'll definitely be a team to reckon with.
                              7. Phoenix Suns: They'll miss Stoudemire.
                              8. Houston Rockets: If Yao could play more than 24 minutes, they'd be higher


                              WC Finals Matchup:
                              San Antonio Spurs vs Los Angeles Lakers<--Spurs push the Lakers to 7 games, with the Lakers pulling it out

                              NBA Finals(list # of games you think it will go):
                              Los Angeles Lakers vs Miami Heat <-- I really hate to be a party pooper for most but going into the Finals, Miami will have home court advantage that that'll be key for them to win it all. I say it goes 7 games. NOW if the Lakers have home court advantage, it'll be a different story.

                              Finals MVP: Dwayne Wade <-- As a Bulls fan, I really want to throw-up on this pick.
                              I have more respect for a man who let's me know where he stands, even if he's wrong. Than the one who comes up like an angel and is nothing but a devil. - Malcolm X
