I hope we can be the 2nd seed out west
I really like this lineup:
C: Thabeet PF: Griffin SF: Beasley SG: Dex PG: Nocedal
backup 2/3: ACTION! backup 4/5: FA
If we resign Nocedal, i love this team

You're not even 4th out West lol That's funny, considering we were tied for 4th out East winning 50 games and would have finished 3rd out west. Thabeet is an upgrade over donatas for this team as well.

I'm excited as well. We played great at the end of last year, and made some key moves in the offseason to improve our team, so I'm anticipating a great season for us.

This is a big year for us. This should tell us if our "youth" can win it all, if not I'm going to say fuck it and load up on stars "vets" next year. Yeeee it's definitely going to be fun.

Rose got even better, which is really scary. It gives me the feeling that nobody can touch the Knicks. But in truth, I don't think everyone is that far behind. I could see my team, the Heat or the Pistons also taking the East. The Knicks lean so much on their SL and especially their big three that I think they're vulnerable if they get in foul trouble or have injuries, and more so than the other teams in the mix. But that's been the case for two seasons and it hasn't changed anything, so who knows.
The East is still stacked. But I had an awesome TC and can't wait to see these guys play. Hopefully Green makes a difference for me.

The West is going to be alot better than in years past. Alot of teams got alot better plus we added Memphis and LV. If we find the right DC, we should comfortably make the playoffs, but I think that's been one of my bigger weaknesses.

I think that with Ross and Davidson anything is possible. We have a lot of depth with a monster up front. Pig says hes gonna win 40 this year but yeah... Hopefully his pick is gold.

Offensively, we're still mediocre, but we're improved over last year, and our D is improved over last year, as is our depth, so, I'm expecting us to really be a tough team to beat this year.

I'm excited for the season. I need to add some depth and probably will intentionally rip myself off to get some. I think we're going to be a big time surprise team.

My team is so different from every other team out there, I'm not sure if that's a good thing just yet.

Hopefully his pick is gold. i really think you'll win the west I think that we need some scoring but maybe Carrington can step it up this year. I don't know about winning the West but i think we can make some noise.
