    76ers got my vote. Howard and Johnson make a potent inside/outside duo, and the supporting cast fit well with them. The bench is strong enough, too.

    Toronto is going to suffer with Curry and inexperienced PG play. Stucky was pretty good in the playoffs, but nowhere near good enough. If I were coaching that roster, Diaw would be my C and JWill my PG. And I'd be wishing for an all-star caliber PG.

    Knicks big three of Williams, Howard, and Okur is a very interesting mix, but I don't believe in the rest of the team.

    Toronto wins this division in a landslide. This is no contest. My opinion of KG is well known, but he is a terrific complement to Curry and the two of them will mask each other's weaknesses. This team is superb defensively and has a top bench.

    I was torn between the sixers and the raptors. Raptors have a much better bench, though, which should help them cope with inevitable in-season disruptions.

    Two high draft picks and two playoff locks in this division. The (crazy!) Raps will have offensive dry spells, but will zap all of the other team's energy with their stifling defense. The Sixers have enough shooting and defense to ride D-Ho to a ton of wins.

    This might be the 1st year I didn't make the playoffs. I think I even make the playoffs with that horrible team I drafted in the first draft on BBB.
