| Sandy D | 02-25-2014 09:59 PM | re: NBA Followers & other Ball sports (NCAA too) Cant believe no big trades this year at all.
Thought we would see the Bulls, Thunder, Mavs make some moves.
Bulls got a deal with Turner but still not enough. |
re: NBA Followers & other Ball sports (NCAA too) Lot of teams seem to have just given up on this season |

Thunder wont go anywhere, they need another solid player and just lost Perkins.
Indiana needs a big man, Hibbert cannot handle most centers on good teams. |
re: NBA Followers & other Ball sports (NCAA too) Indiana is still not set |

Lots of potential upsets based on Matchups. I am a Warriors fan if the face certain teams (Clippers, Portland, Phoneix) they could advance. Rocket, Thunder, Spurs all prove different issues to different teams. I don't see any clear cut teams in the West. If Memphis get back in and Gasol is healthy that could be a hell of a problem for some teams.
The West really is the Wild West. I like certain teams but each team has such different strengths. You might as well just flip a coin. With my Warriors it is all about how healthy will Bogut be. |
re: NBA Followers & other Ball sports (NCAA too) Would like to see Toronto do something special hah |

re: NBA Followers & other Ball sports (NCAA too) 32-26 as of date...top of the Atlantic conference but...in the East, which - as you stated - does suck overall |
re: NBA Followers & other Ball sports (NCAA too) The raptors are cold. Valuncianias, Ross, derozan, Lowry. |

GS does not have enough rebounding strong men to get deep into the playoffs. Hitting 3s all game long does not win championships. |

The West is going to be wild. The Rockets have a ton of talent. They could be the wild card in the whole thing. I still won't even count out the Mavericks. They surprised everyone a few years ago by winning. As long as they have Dirk they could go on a run as well.
My guess is even the first round with the 1 playing 8 seed and 2 playing 7 seed in the West are going to be 6 game series. Heat and Pacers will probably sweep their respective series. |

Having Oden gives the Heat that big bruiser in the middle that can take up space.
I believe a three peat is coming unless someone gets real lucky. |
re: NBA Followers & other Ball sports (NCAA too) Pacers shutting down the Heat to come out of the East would be something special. |

Has more skills then Jordon just need to put up more years of doing what he is doing to get up there.
If his health is good, 3-4 more years and I see him being as equal if not passing MJ.
And I always said no other player in NBA history did what MJ did overall.
Then comes Lebron.
Bigger, stronger, more physical, great defense etc. Total package.
Had he left Cleveland 2 year earlier he would have been moving right up to being close already. Staying there has hurt him. | | All times are GMT -5. The time now is 02:35 AM. | |
