Good morning everyone. If you a regular follower of my blog and came here for my comprehensive college football bowl predictions, I decided to do them early and you can find them in Tuesday's post. This is turning into prediction week on 'Bikini Hill' as I have decided to post my predictions for the upcoming NBA regular season today. As I posted here previously, I believe that this will be one of the more interesting NBA regular seasons in recent memory due to the fact that everyone's schedule will be condensed into such a short amount of time. I believe that player fatigue will create the potential for injuries to occur, and I think that we are more likely to see tempers flare from tired players who will be competing in 66 games during a 4-month span. I think that teams will need to play deep into their benches and avoid serious injuries to be successful this season. With that being said, I am throwing my predictions out there anyway because that's the kind of team player that I am... ;) For those of you who are new to the blog, some of my better predictions in recent memory were calling that none of the #1 seeds would reach the Final Four in last year's NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament, picking the Houston Texans to win their division this season, thus earning their franchise's first-ever trip to the playoffs, and predicting that the defending AFC West champion Kansas City Chiefs would not reach the playoffs this year. And of course my list of missed predictions is too long to list here... ;) Here are my regular season predictions for the upcoming NBA basketball season:

I am curious to see how many of the eight playoff teams I can get right in each conference. I will be back here tomorrow with my usual Friday football predictions. If you remember last week's NFL picks, then you know to take these basketball predictions with a grain of salt... :) Have a great day and I'll see you tomorrow.
