The division not only has winners, it must also have losers. Some of these teams will have good records, close enough to make the playoffs but with no cigar, others could possibly be horrible but are they bad because they have no talent, or because they want to tank hard? Look out for those teams who are trying to make the final cut for a shot at the chip and also follow the race to the bottom here in our bottom 7 eastern edition. 9. The first team out of the playoffs sadly I think will be the New York Knicks. They made a huge mistake giving up Shaq for a player like Ewing (despite how good he looks in blue and orange) who was semi unproven and declined in TC. I think he got a nice piece in Hudson though for sure. I do not think Trey is a good fit for PF, he is more of a center and so is Chewing, this will cause an issue in the paint. The team had a 7-6 preseason and I that continued they would survive CY but I do not think it does. Glider is their leader and a good, maybe great scorer but his defense is such a liability with no one making up for it. Hudson is also not a good defender and Malik Newman could be done. I hope I am wrong about this and the knicks make it out but they should have taken MJ for Shaq and went for a title, not just an escape of CY 10. This spot will go to the Washington Wizards. The team had a great preseason which probably is attributed the fluke of having his new drafted rookie run the point. But honestly Tookie Brown is not bad so a line up of Walton *insert pf* Mitch Ritchmond, scoring sensation Paul Arizin and Tookie should be good. The scoring of Ritchmond and Arizin along with the constant do it all of Walton could be nice. Too bad Walton never really turned into the superior scorer I expected. 11. I am giving this spot to the New Orleans Hornets since it seems they at least want to win. The Hornets are anchored by Chinese Superstar Zhou QI. QI is playing lights out and this team has 8 seed potential because of it. Ac Green is starting to look good and shit maybe Byronn Scott will be more then a coach. Dell Curry seems to be a complete bust and Daughtry does not look amazing so I do not expect too much from this team. 12. The Indiana Pacers were once good before the HAM sabotage and “the trade” . This team still packs some talent with Reggie Lewis being a good scorer along with pressey and WBF doing the same. Ayton and Lassale should be good enough down low but it seems that this team has a huge issue on defense and the new GM has not really impressed me. If he is active they have a chance to succeed but if he is not they will probably just float just as the pacers have been pretty much since Shard rage quit seasons ago. 13. The Philadelphia 76ers with Shaq alone have the most talent out of the remaining three teams. But by choice they will be a bottom feeder. They do not really have much explosive scoring after moving Hudson. Beka is probably their second best player until Cole develops. This team has a promising future because of their good GM but for now the sixers are chilling in the basement. 14. The Miami Heat are trying hard to tank the right way. Last season they lost a ton of games and ended up with the third pick in a bad draft. They ended up moving down to get another future pick which was a good move. Taking the created player Long who he is hoping to develop into his best scorer. The team has Kemp and is actively trying to move Oscar who is one of the best PG in the game. How he has not moved the former top 2 selection is beyond me. I am a fan of the heats long term plan, lets hope it pays off. 15. The worst team is the Milwaukee Bucks. This team has promise since they have the dream but they are starting to look like big time losers in the Bird trade. Trae and Brown both do not look like they are getting any better and its pretty hopeless. The shine of light after a 1-15 preseason is the hope of a dream. Hakeem the Dream. Another top pick in a strong draft could give this team a nice future, so we will see how this pans out

Good read, I agree on Brad not living up to expectation. Dell Curry is good I just have not gotten a DC to showcase Curry but he would succeed in outside scoring. yeah I am trying to win good thing I have three picks in T'Wolves + Pacers + My own pick. good get more depth next season or make moves.

Package that all for a better player then. You should get Oscar back from the heat for like del and your pick and pacers or something. He would pair really well with qi I think since they both would rock balanced. Rather then trading a good player for assets you should trade assets for a good player for once

How would getting MJ got me a title?
My starting 5 would have been a shit PG-Gilder-MJ-a shit PF-Mourning
Because you wanted like Robinson,Schrempf plus Ewing.
I'm laughing at the fact you said trading for MJ would have won a ship.
Next time you make rankings leave the butt hurt of someone not wanting to trade with you out of it man.

Building around MJ would have been easier than Ewing/Hudson tho. MJ/Mourning/Glider would def get into playoffs. Plus make moves and you could have been title contender within two years prolly.

Yeah I'm not butt hurt lol. mj glider would have been the best so ring 2/3 in the league prob with s good center and still a shit ton of cap room that you ended up spending on a bunch of ahitty players. Ewing is currently not that great. So instead of having two really good players you have a bunch of average ones so your pretty much the nuggets. Could have easily put the Wizards and pacers above you too

Could have easily put the Wizards and pacers above you too Then why bring it up again? You act like Ewing is shitty lol and you failed to mention Hundson at all who is one of the best young PG in the league right now. I only had 18 million to spend in FA and how is Newman a shitty player? IF you think that you need learn how to judge talent. Sure hes old but he can still play.

With 18 mil you could have done a lot better then a player who's a shell of his former self. I have 4 rings. I don't think you have any and your best player of all time was galo who was over achieving but didn't get you anywhere

Lol good luck in Cy hope you can snag the 8 seed or better And would would have gave up half of my depth and young players to get him not to mention he only has two years left and would need to be resigned which means like 20 million. I dont have to make the playoffs to beat CY really just need 42 wins.

Guess you don't pay attention much do you? Explain base's teams from previous seasons, or Cavs last year. Cavs won because of Malone and Kareem. Not their pg. But you weren't paying attention most likely. You're just looking at regular season MVP's. I was a 4 seed I believe with Mike Gale as a starting PG. It's easier to build around a great pg but you don't need one.

Cool would have never guessed but maybe Hakeem is good enough Couldnt tank last season so I think these one would be harder... so if not tanking I think I am trying to achieve the PO´s.

I'm not saying you can't win or be good without a good PG but like you said its way easier with one.
