Sportsline: Power Rankings: Every team has hope, and some of it's even justified

We don't know what free agency will yield, but Dave Del Grande has his educated guesses. He predicts who will be the most and least improved next season. Hint: It revolves around LeBron James.

Good grief, he's predicting the Kings will be worse next year. (BTW, when is grief good?)

These are the same writers that were absolutely convinced of Hasheem Thabeets prowess. And are the same people that picked KU to win it all. They are never right, never ever. Didn't they have Tyreke as the 3rd or 4th best PG of 2009 draft? Less wins that last season is almost impossible because we always split the season series with 8 WC teams, thats 16 wins plus the 1-3 we go against LA, SA, DEN, POR, DAL, PHX, UTAH so thats ~21 wins against the WC conservatively. then we play 15 east coast teams 2x for ~30 games, the top 4 are no good, so assuming things stay relative, we have 22 games against teams with equal talent so we can assume its 50-50 for those 22 games. 32 wins is my conservative estimate for next year. I doubt we loose less than we did this year with all the improvement we will have made in house.

Doesnt make any sense to me. The Kings are going to have a high lottery pick and 20+ million in cap room. To add to that it will be an up and coming superstars sophmore year in the NBA and all of our young talent will be 1 year more mature. The Kings wont have any problem winning more games next year.

After reading what he wrote about the other teams its pretty obvious to me that basketball isnt his area of expertise.
