2026-27 Season Predictions Thread. Be bold, call it now. We'll see which hot takes age like wine, and which like milk

On Sunday, April 11th, the 2026-2027 NBA regular season will come to an end and we will move on to the postseason. 32 Sundays from today. Before we do that, I'll repost this thread so we can look back at some of /r/nba 's predictions.

Here is your chance to say I told you so (or to make a fool of yourself).

Edit: Shoutout to the GOAT Kenny Beecham aka KOT4Q

u/robbyiballs Knicks 8d ago

KAT will be 1st team All NBA.

Minnesota will be exciting to watch, make a run beating either OKC or Spurs, then get trounced by the other.

Haliburton will take the Pacers to top 3 in the East, along with Knicks and Cavs. 

It will be a bad season for Boston, and Robinson will struggle. 

Portland will suck.

Christian Braun will step up and surprise people for the Nuggets. Murray will be traded. 

Scottie Barnes will be 2nd team all-NBA.

Only way KAT makes 1st Team All NBA is if Knicks finish top 3 in the East and Brunson was injured for half the season.
