Four and a half months from now when we look back on these season predictions got a lot to talk about here

0:11.2

We got to give our win totals for every team championship picks MVP major awards a few other categories that we have come up with

0:21.1

Over the years as well such as the not executive of the year biggest surprise player most disappointing player

0:26.8
