Will the Miami Heat and Jimmy Playoff Butler get it done, or will Nikola Jokic silence his critics?

The 3 Good Habits of The Los Angeles Lakers

It is time for everyone to stop hating on Michael Jordan. Sure the Hornets have only made the playoffs twice during his tenure as owner, but the team now has a value of around $2 billion dollars, which is a fantastic number when you consider he only paid $275 million some 13 years ago.

The up-and-down Western Conference is officially on high alert as the Laker's mid-season moves appear to be making a huge difference even while LeBron James is sidelined.  Basically, The New Lakers Are For Real.

Do the Phoenix Suns have enough depth to help KD bring home a title for the Suns this year?  Plus you can't have 10 historic comebacks in 2 months. We need to redefine what a historic comeback is!

MOST AT STAKE - Kyrie Irving and His Money - now that the Dallas Mavericks have rented Kyrie Irving for 3 months, the question is will he steer clear of trouble and do enough on the court to score a $200 million dollar long-term contract with the Mavericks, or will he tell the Mavs yes and then sign with LeBron James and the Lakers during the off-season.

How could you not love the old Russell Westbrook - well those days are long gone as Westbrook is skiing rapidly down the backside of career mountain.   Simply put the new version of Russell Westbrook is a bad thing for the Clippers.

With less than 23 games to go in the season, I give you my predictions for the rest of the NBA regular season.  Plus the New Lakers are absolutely huge improvement, but these moves should have been made before the start of the season. Happy 60th B-Day to Air Jordan...
