Barring any injuries, the Warriors will defend its title once again I think. OK, Houston was close last year and Melo could turn out to be good. Lakers will be a playoff team and I think OKC will improve compared to last year- the Kiwi is a beast
Lakers will beat the OKC and once again westbrook will have an early exit in the playoffs.
Rockets are a good team but Lebron is with the lakers now, only the warriors can beat him so I think we will see most likely a Lakers vs Warriors West Finals.
This will only happen if they will have a good chemistry along the way but I have trust in Lebron. Remember when they traded most of their players last season and yet they are in 4th spot. I think the will be a playoff contender but not enough to win in the conference (own opinion).

Warriors won 2 out of three in their past three finals appearances and most people ar saying thay they will win again now that they acquired Boogie and I agree with them although as they always say "The ball is round". Lets just see their performance next season.
They have been just adding up players to create a superteam but i would still believe that Lakers would really give a good fight on West finals. Coordination would really takes time specially with Lebron and the players of Lakers but that wont really be a major issue. This year would be exciting on the west on how those superteams will clash as well into those runner-ups on the conference.

Can we say whoever wins the West will win the Finals.
Young players have been doing hard work at the east and they are also getting bigger line ups. While the best have super guards which makes a small and fast teams.
It had been a huge flip now. Before it was the West who have Giants but now it seems like the guards are the mostly seen.

Embiid should really take his game to a higher level so that centers will be seen again on the front lines.

Possible.

The last couple of years, the West seems to evolve pretty much and the East was very slow to react. But its pretty obvious now that the 3 point shoot is more of a thing now in the West more than having a good center to man the ring. I don't know what Joel needs to improved though, perhaps just be consistent, all this stats are up from 2016 (pts / rebounds / assists).
