With the new NBA season starting on October 27, we're going to take a look ahead, be bold and make our predictions for the upcoming season.
It's well lamented that the Trail Blazers will feature a re-vamped roster and most people don't think they will surpass 40 wins. Several predictions don't have them winning even 30 games.
Will they surprise? Will they make the playoffs? Will a Blazer win any individual accolades? Just how many wins will the Trail Blazers earn over the course of the 2015-16 season?
Which NBA teams will make the playoffs and advance through each round? Who will be the MVP? How about coach of the year?
So many questions. Time for some answers.
I'll start. Please add yours in the comments.
