The NBA East is gonna be fun this year with the Heat, Celts, and Magic. Ive never been a HUGE NBA fan in that I typically watch games here and there but mainly just watch the playoffs.

With the Thunder in OKC, the recent player movement, and Blake being in the league, im actually pretty excited about this season.

If Shaq can stay fresh, the Celts will be even tougher this year

Rondo, Allen, Pierce, Garnett, Shaq....that's a pretty tough matchup for anyone come playoff time. Very old, yes, but way more experience than any other team can throw out there.

The took the opener against the hated Heat, but the Heat Trio is only going to get better as the season goes along.

You certainly can't count the Magic out either with Howard in the middle.

Will be interesting to see if the Knicks can make any noise with Amare terrorizing the Eastern Conference now too.

The West should be extremely competitive yet again. The Lakers are on top until further notice, but between Mavs, Thunder, Blazers, Nuggets and Spurs. Then you have the Hornets with a healthy Chris Paul, Rockets if Yao can come back from injury, how will Utah be now without Boozer, Clippers with a heathly Blake, and a continually improving Grizzlies team too.

John Wall looked average at best in his 1st game

it's because he didn't have Agent 0 riding shotgun.

Only mystery with the Celtics will be whether or not Rasheed decides to join them for one last try midseason.

don't sleep on Portland, they're going to be dangerous in the West.

When will Carmelo be traded? Will the Nuggets have Anderson and Martin back before they pull the trigger on that trade?

Will my Pistons win more games than the Grizzlies? Will the Cavaliers?

Will jlew go a week without trying to get LeBron's phone number?

But JLEW said the Heat have no chemistry, lol


Melo will be traded sooner than later IMO but I dont have any info to back that up

I think the Grizz are a sleeper

Magic did look pretty bad. They made zero adjustments this off-season. Vince Carter will always be a failure. No more than an Allen Iverson cancer.

again, Lakers over Boston

stoops the eternal pimp

Scott D

Everybody knew they would beat teams like Minnesota. Boston on the other hand...

Orlando by 26...for the record in case you havent been keeping up, im not all over Miami's nuts as much as im making fun of Jlew who said they would never have any chemistry.

John Wall, 18pts, 11ast, 8 steals...wow

finished the game with 29, 13, and 9... incredible game. i figured blake would have a cakewalk to rookie of the year as it would take longer for wall's game to translate to the NBA, but looks like we have a nice ROY battle on our hands this year. still think blake wins it though...

wall is going to be a star in this league as long as he stays healthy...but as far a the rookie season goes, i think it's going to have its share of highs and its share of lows. a lot like what we saw out of brandon jennings last year. i think blake will be the more steady of the two...one thing they do have in common is that they're both on awful, awful teams.

They've lost 3 games already. Not that the regular season matters anyway. Just ask Lebron.

What did I say earlier in the thread, we wont know if this Heat team is gonna be good or not til about 20 games in

Sucks for the Heat that the first 3rd of this season is the basically the preseason.

Collier11
11/11/2010, 04:03 PM
I dont think they really care about their record too much this season as long as they get a top 3 seed. Now if after 20 games they are 12-8 then maybe we can start talking about how they arent gonna be as good as we thought, then again maybe not

The Rockets are going to stink it up this year, it appears. Wonder if the coach will last the season - even though it's not his fault.

Actually, that's pretty good for them. They're likely headed to a 5-4 start.

MJ's Bulls should watch out!!!!!

Jlew, you acting like the sky is falling after 9 games is funny, mainly cus I know how much you want Lebron to fail, as I told you on FB, its really unhealthy my man

Theyve got some weaknesses though for sure, they are going to have to prove that "soft" tag wrong now cus people are starting to believe it.
