Oh ok, well you didn't say "should be" you said "no way they are" so that might have been why people said they would be favored in response to you.
As for my own opinion I dunno, they got pretty much all kids right now and it is tough to win in the NBA with a team that young. Indy seems like they are gonna lose Lance so not sure which way they go because I do think he is really underrated despite all the antics.
Bulls its tough to say. Pau has kinda looked like shit defensively last 2 years, looked good offensively last year but that was playing on a team giving up 110ppg so they were basically glorified pickup games, 34 w/ a lot of mileage on him. Rose hasn't played forever and I got no clue how the rest of his career is gonna go but hopefully he pulls through...
I dunno about that. I mean LeBron carried some bad Cleveland teams when he used to play there and Kyrie is better than any teammate he had from '03-10. Blatt gotta be a better coach than Mike Brown too. Varejao staying healthy will be big because he is the only rebounder/interior defender they have and he pretty much never stays healthy.
Regardless of what you or I think my guess is the market opens around like 55ish O/U win total so you should have a good overlay there based on your opinion.
Wizards got my man THE TRUTH so I'll probably pull for them. If Wall/Beal continue to improve that is a team to lookout for.
Also fwiw I don't really see the Cavs getting Love. As LeBron gets older he isn't gonna be able to play both ends with the same intensity/effectiveness and they want Wiggins to take the load off of him defensively, guarding the best guy each night will really help extend Bron's career. Cavs playing the long game on this 1 seems like.
Really doubt Minn would deal them Love w/o getting Wiggins unless maybe Bennett/Waiters/Thompson startoff next year really well and increase their trade value or something of that nature.

Yeah I think Wiggins is gonna be pretty damn good but who knows how fast. Bennett should be pretty good too now that he hired a personal chef and dropped 15 pounds and is taking the NBA seriously. Kyrie still only 22, might not be ready to be the #2 guy on a title team. They just got a lot of parts that are gonna take time to mold.
We'll see if this guy is the man for the job....
From Rotoworld:
ESPN's Chris Broussard is reporting that the Timberwolves will not include Kevin Love in a two-way trade to the Cavaliers if Andrew Wiggins is not included in the deal.
The Cavs, on the other hand, say they have no intentions of moving Wiggins in order to get Love, although that could possibly change if push comes to shove. In any case, there's no doubt the Cavs want Love, and whether they can get a third team involved, or persuade the Wolves to deal without getting Wiggins, remains to be seen. Stay tuned.
