Yes sir!

Do kobe and the Lakers have it set in stones to capture a title ? Quit playing, hell no!

are the spurs time running out and this team will vanish ??They need to be training someone to replace Duncan while he's still around

Are the Bad Boy from the motor city back and set to rise once again ? Again, quit playing. Hell no!

Can King L.James get over the hump and move into the finals ?? Yeah, if he ever gets a consist jump shot.

Is Utah ready to make a run for the title ?Yep, as soon as hell freezes over.

Through rank Boston #1 Lakers #2 said they will meet in a title showdown

Hawks look good but the Magic might be in there way
with the Heat fading fast and the wizzards on the rise the Hawks have alot
on there plate in this division and might not make it to round one less they have
a knock out punch of there own

Denver going to make a run for the playoffs while from L.A
it might not say Lakers but Clippers

Ok i know my Team seem sad but i have high hopes for a better season
on the Bulls and the young star Rose

Detroit will rule this division , likewise Boston

Cavs need a bit more to really overcome the hill they face every year James need
more help on the wing

Mavs and Hornets will battle in the southwest

T-wolve , Jazz ,Nuggets in the northwest will be in a dog fight this season

:bball::bball::bball::bball::bball::bball::bball:: bball:

First and foremost,

Whoever plans on doin somethin better do it dis season (maaaayyybe next).. cause when Greg Oden develops into what he will be, Portland will be a Dynasty (other teams will DIE-NASTY tryin to play them)

But of course Oden may not be able to stay healthy, then... forget it.

The H0rnets will be stronger (but I don't know if they will be strong enough)

The Jury is still out on L.A. Will Bynum be that second superstar to help Kobe in the playoffs? It remains to be seen. Eirbody thought it would be Gasol... but Hell NAW. He folded like a lawn chair.

The Spurs are RAPIDLY running out of time. They have a long shot if they can stay healthy.

In the East

Philly will cause problems, but it remains to be seen how well they play together.

Cleveland will be stronger (they never had time to gel as a team last year before the playoffs)

I also believe that BY THE END OF THE SEASON, the Heat will be a top contender to come out of the East.

But when it is all said and Done, it will be Boston coming out of the East. The West?

the spurs reign could be over

the hornets are great all they need to is learn how play playoffs basketball
with 5 minutes left in a games and they will be unstoppable

ARE OTHERS TEAM GOING TO ALLOW BOSTON ALL THE WAY BACK TO THE RING?:?:

being from/in brooklyn N.Y., i'm totally embarrassed by the state of basketball here so the knicks need to show something with this new coach,
the NETS are a wounded animal now

other cities have greats team, LA, HOU, NO, BOS, DET, CLE, DAL, DEN

what will the SUNS do to correct the oversight last season you know trading for SHAQ, and losing a great player in marion

we'll see

dang no respect for my rockets???

Tmac is a softie who I despise dearly, and Yao's always hurt, so I understand certain people not taking them seriously. With that being said Ron Ron will add toughness, defense, offense, clutch play, etc. to our team. If the rockets can remain relatively healthy I like our chances...................Ron Ron and Battier will give teams fits defensively. And our depth is INSANE.

PG: Alston/ Brooks/Brent Barry (has looked good in the preseason)
SG: Shemac / Von Wafer (hasn't officially made the roster yet, but I hope he does)
SF: Ron Ron/ Battier
PF: Scola/ Landry (he's gonna be a 6th man candidate.....Carl's got game for those that don't know)/ Hayes (great defense)/ Dorsey (great defender, but won't see a lot of minutes probably)
C: Yao / Mutumbo (we're signing him back pretty soon)


Word is Steve Francis might get cut. I'll always love and respect Stevie Franchise for playing his heart out everynight (although he'd turn the ball over a lot), but those knees are done......

Can Boston and the big three repeat ?

No. Their playoff run wasn't all that impressive last year....They let the "hawks" take them to 7 games?!?!?!?!? Losing James Posey will hurt them a lot, and K.G. is still a softie (who pretends to be hard by growling excessively) who is fortunate that he had a true superstar like Paul Pierce to step up and make big plays.


Do kobe and the Lakers have it set in stones to capture a title ?

Depends on Andrew Bynum, their defense, and how Odom fits into his new role as 6th man.

are the spurs time running out and this team will vanish ??

yes....they're done........thank god.....no more boring basketball. Manu is out the 1st couple of months, Timmy's losing it, and they added no siginificant pieces in the offseason...

Are the Bad Boy from the motor city back and set to rise once again ?

No, and they haven't been for a while now. Joey D should've made some changes in the offseason like he promised. Detroit will have a good reg. season and dissapoint in the playoffs yet again. Plus teams like Orlando, Toronto, and Philly all got better......

Can King L.James get over the hump and move into the finals ??

Yes. Had he had a "lil" help last year they would've beat Boston in game 7. Mo Williams is the truth......


Is Utah ready to make a run for the title ?

No. I'm saying this partly, because I hate the Utah Jazz and everything that organization stands for.....But ultimately no. They still have no SG, they don't know how to win on the road, and Boozer AK47 and Okur are too inconsitent in the playoffs.......Deron Williams is a beast though.


with some changes and good new talent entering this season who look to be
the team to the final road all these question will be answered .....


My Conclusion is


Top Threats in the East:
Cavs, Heat (my boy D. Wade is back healthy again along with Marion and Beasely), Celtics

Top Threats in the West:
Hornets (added Posey to solve the SG problem, and Paul and West will both be better....scary thought), Lakers, and Rockets (health is the key as always)

The rockets look good in pre-season it might be a real battle in the WEST this year
Lakers / Jazz / Mavs / Blazers on the rise Oden/Roy & Blake look out!
Rockets /Clippers /Denver /Hornets & wolves.......WEST packed with talent
Spurs know how to win playoff games and look to get back

Hawks on the rise and will hurt lots of teams Cavs still missing one piece to it's puzzle
but will be there again, Boston clearly the favorite Pistons not going away so fast and
Philly young team gel together they gonna make a big impact Magic & Heat also going
to make a splash and run everybody in the EAST have to go through Boston & Detroit
and even Orlando.....

this NYK coach is real Amerikkkan icon ain't he?

well A.I.'s gonna be a piston now

I think both teams needed it. Billups was on the decline and neither team was going to do anything of any significant with their current rosters....Stuckey will get more time, and you can play small ball with Stuckey, AI, RIP, Tayshaun, and Wallace/Maxiell....Denver finally gets a pg that they need, a guy with experience, and a another big man in Mcdyess (that's if he stays in Denver...if he doesn't Miami or Cleveland needs to reach out and pick him up immediately).......I don't think this makes either a legit "contender" but both needed a change..............


this NYK coach is real Amerikkkan icon ain't he?

nah stephon is a ball hog and a team cancer and he's been one since leaving KG to hang out and dry in Minny at the beginning of their careers, lol......

I think both teams did good and both will be a bit better ....A.I should fit in well with
the pistons Billups gonna be a great point in Denver plus McDyess coming off the bench
will be a good addition

let's see how they do and if this trade was good to improve each team...

Who yall think is going to remain undefeated for the longest?

$$RICH$$
11-05-2008, 07:58 PM
That will be a toss up with these teams who can get beat on any given night !
HORNETS / LAKERS likely to last the longest if they don't clash with each other

I think the first to fall from the unbeaten will be Toronto RAPTORS and followed by
Detroit PISTONS / Atlanta HAWKS might go first because i believe PHILLY --MAGIC
can beat them and even the BULLS can suprise them ....

let's see how this fare out in the coming days ....and don't look for the LAKERS or
HORNETS to give any games away right now !!!

Let me add this if the LAKERS do fall it will be at the hands of Houston ROCKETS.

I told you the RAPTORS would go down from the ranks first they now 3-1
look for pistons or Hawks next ...

Wizzards need to rebuild ......Knicks not as bad as it seem watch this team rise up late
once again i'm right on the money as the PISTON fall from the unbeaten like i said Hawks next!
Hornets fall twice Lakers and Jazz unbeaten will last the longest with Lakers being the last team standing
ROCKETS on top and moving up making mad noise y'all sleep on HOUSTON !

overtake the celtics because of iverson?

is iverson helping or hurting the pistons

i say the jury is still out

Jahari Kavi

although Artest and She-Mac were out, the rockets still shouldn't lose to the Grizzles. Yao played soft once again and the defense was poor.


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dSpvx6Gvzc8

^^^Wade goes off for 40 plus points for the 3rd time this season, and provides a facial for Emeka Okafor


Bron, Wade, Dwight, and Kobe are top choices for MVP thus far........

I'm still not a believer in the Lakers, because I feel that they are too soft up front.

well,let's see now,since the last time i was here...eddie jordan gets canned[he deserves better]the labrons are killing everybody[maybe they are some good]the lakers are tearing it up[go kobe]and the celtics are playing like the champs that they are...oh that trade for a.i.ain't working out so well for detroit...lakers-celtics in june..i'm out.

lakers-celtics again?

i'll give you one of these teams but not both we'll see

iverson so far is a flop but it's a long season i think things will put up
once he finds he fits and they understand him because it's almost like
they have to change to him because of the style he plays
it will be interesting
