The Atlantic Files #138: Northwest Division Preview

This week on The Atlantic Files:

Our Year in Review series is officially wrapped up, which means the division preview series is back! The first division on the docket is the Northwest Division which looks to be quite interesting this coming season despite losing some big names.

As Mike Bash has said, the Denver Nuggets are primed to make a return as a top-two seed this season. Right behind them in their own division are the likes of the Utah Jazz and Portland Trail Blazers. Will the Minnesota Timberwolves finally hit their stride and make some noise, or will everyone continue to question Andrew Wiggins? Finally, the Oklahoma City Thunder have lost their dynamic duo, so to the bottom of the barrel they go.

8:00 – Oklahoma City Thunder predictions

Being from the suburbs of Philadelphia, it was hard not to become a Sixers fan during Allen Iverson's prime. Other than just the Sixers, I enjoy watching all forms and levels of basketball, especially the WNBA. Outside of basketball, I've been playing and coaching volleyball for most of my life. Also, after graduating from the University of Pittsburgh, I became a Software Developer by day, while writing and hosting podcasts by night.
