Some general NBA 08-09 talk

Blazers are winning the northwest division...55 games at least for the deepest team in the league.

That's all for now.

they have shaq as their center on a team that's supposed to run up and down the floor????????

Shaq's gonna get booed by the 15th game of the season, the come up with an injury and sulk on the bench for the next 3rd of the season, then talk trash about being the most dominant ever , then go to the playoffs and be ousted in the first round by getting outplayed by Duncan/Oden/Jefferson/Aldridge/Yao/Chandler/Boozer/Bynum/Gasol/Dampier/Insert_Western_Center_Here

Predictions:

- The Spurs are finished in terms of competing for a title with the same cast of players they have.

- Lamar Odom will get traded this year (about time I might add!). As will Josh Howard

- I think Denver Nuggets will have some sort of clash this year with Melo vs. AI or Karl with one of them. I don't care how many drills they do, they still won't be committed defenders.

- My sleeper player: Marco Bellinelli of Golden St. Expect double figure scoring and a MIP award, although with BDiddy gone they won't come close to their win total of last year.

If they're healthy Raps will make 2nd round, no further.

Spanish players will be great this year. Calderon is a top 5 pg and Rudy Fernandez is gonna posterize a bunch of star players...and may get 6th man of the year award. Pao Gasol might make the All Star team, and Marc Gasol will be a solid rebounder.

same regular season record as last year, but won't get past Orlando/Toronto/Celtics/Detroit if they face them in the playoffs. Lebron still don't have enough help. He needs a bonafied star as a sidekick.

Before I could even predict it Vince Carter done injured.
Nets will raise a few eyebrows this season despite not having a true center
they are long and athletic
Frank should coach accordingly.

Excited for this season to start.... Looking forward to seeing those Blazers play, they got a lot of weapons on that team... Ultimately their youth and inexperience may be the only thing stopping them....


The Suns are done... No way do they still run that freestyle run and gun offense... Porter is going to try and slow it down to try and utilize Shaq as best as he can.. Eventually they'll be gone by the first round....
