Cosigns...
Yuh can take da boi outa Minnesota, but you can't take MinnesotaB-ball out the boi. GARNETT
I miss my season tickets with my daddy... :cry:
I'm hoping my boy Stevie Franchise and the Magic do pretty well.
HA! i'ma be real bold and predict the surprise team will be the Bobcats... they gonna get 3rd in the Southeast.... :arrow:
Atlantic:
Boston (they're stacked)
New York (they looking good)
Philadelphia (Iverson can't do it all)
New Jersey (the run at the top is over)
Toronto (Canada will have to wait another year)
Central:
Detroit (still at the top w/ the same team pretty much from last year)
Indiana (they are great, but still not at the top of their game)
Milwaukee (strong team, may be the 3rd team out this division)
Cleveland (great team, but the division is too tough)
Chicago (they really need MJ back, or someone close to it :lol
Southeast:
Miami (they had this weak **** division before Shaq came to Miami)
Orlando (I'm being too bold w/ this predicition, but give them a few years)
Charlotte (if they can get better on defense, they are gonna win quite a
few games)
Atlanta (i'd just give them props if they actually put people in the seats
this year)
Washington (this team is an eyesore, i'd put them at the bottom w/ Chicago as worse in the East)
now for the West
Southwest:
Memphis (they can play 10 deep and they really play well as a team)
Houston (T-Mac and Yao)
San Antonio (they're gonna be strong like always)
Dallas (this division is so good, that they'll be the 4th team heading into the playoffs from this division)
New Orleans (if they can only put up 41 wins in the East, what makes you think that they gonna do something in the West?)
Northwest:
Minnesota (they gonna win the West and there is no Shaq or Lakers to stand in their way)
Denver (they are gonna get better as the years go by, another good season from the Nuggets)
Utah (they done made some improvements, it's a wait and see process)
Seattle (they can make it to 3rd... i dunno if they got a true point guard, but once they have that, they're goin places
Portland (they really don't have anyone to produce, **** last, no more LA Clippers to finish ahead of)
Pacific
Sacramento: (they have to get it together this year, or else there won't be the same team next year)
LA Lakers (i would love to put them further down, but if Kobe doesn't go by the team concept, the season will be a long one)
Phoenix (the NBAs most improved team)
Golden State (they gonna get better, they can have 40 wins if healthy)
LA Clippers (as long as Sterling is the owner, they'll remain a doormat)
Doese anybody think that Shaq is really gonna help Miami?
I love shaq but teams can foul him and their like it's okay he won't make the shot anyway.
I the Lakers and I'm glad Shaq got traded.
Kobe who?

I hope you aren't say the Lakers are good without Shaq. If you noticed when he was out for a period of time for an injury last year, the Lakers were slumming, even when Kobe was scoring 30+ points. When Kobe was out, the Lakers still pulled off a win because they had Shaq. With him in the paint, people double team him and that opens the Lakers. Kobe can get double teamed and still will try to keep the ball just so he can prove he is that dam good. With the weak supporting cast they have now (no fisher, fox, payton, but they still got that ol' **** Malone) Kobe will TRY to do it by himself but it aint happening. Lakers are going down. :wink:
