    Carter Discusses Tough Division

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (GM3)</div><div class='quotemain'></p> They overpaid for Kapono but its a good addition. I see the Raptors winning the division, Celtics 2nd and Nets 3rd. All 3 make the playoffs.</p> </div></p> </p> No way the Raps repeat, IMO. I think Carter pretty much...

    2008

    What about Martell Webster? Do Portland fans think that this may be his breakout year, or do you think he'll need some more time?</p>

    The Super Lakers

    Wow. That's all I can say.</p>

    A little respect please

    I've never been a big Sam Smith fan. Besides that, its easy to make predictions like that, especially before the season, and especially in the East, as perhaps half the teams seem to have shots at winning the conference. Think about the Cavs run last year, and tell me which of the following...

    One of Jack Nicholson's earliest film roles from 1960

    Wow, that was pretty powerful. He did an amazing job in Easy Rider, but that was almost a decade after this clip(1969).

    Yormark Welcomes Garden Refugees…Will Houston Join Them?

    That's awesome. I feel that the Lakers and Clippers never really took advantage of their proximity in promoting a rivalry. The fact that the Nets are twice the team the Knicks are ought to go a long way. I'm usually not a fan of relocation, but when its within the same metro area, I don't really...

    Comparing the Nets to the formula for a title contender

    <ul>2 or more superstar caliber players- I'd say 3 semi-superstar players, which is good enough. A superstar should simply be a guy who can raise his game to another level to win games when the team can't. I don't see any one individual player on the Nets doing this the way the players named by...

    Kidd vs. Stockton…at age 34

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (GM3)</div><div class='quotemain'> Lets not forget Stockton had one of the best big man in history playing by his side. Kidd has never had that luxury.</p></div> I don't think that that had as big an impact as people like to think. Sure it helped, and I'm sure if...

    Marcus slimmer and quicker

    I'm not such a big Nets fan, but this is definitely good news for both the team and the league overall. No doubt the Nets management has had the possibility of a Kidd trade at the front of their minds for some time. Marcus is not going to be an elite, top of the shelf point guard like the guys...

    AK-47 wants out of Utah

    I doubt AK's gonna get moved. Obviously the Jazz have needs at 2, and 3 if they do dish him. But their options are limited. They're most likely not going to send him anywhere in the west besides Portland Memphis. The east seems more likely, and perhaps a team like New York and Miami, who both...

    AK 4 RJ?

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Universe)</div><div class='quotemain'>Would add a nice shot blocking pressence to our team but could kick us in the face if his numbers drop down to last years stats.</div> That's true, but I think that's a very slim likelihood. His numbers dropped b/c he was the...

    Rasheed Wallace to sign with Knicks in the offseason

    I think Sheed to the Knicks is another longshot trade proposal cooked up by the NY media. They love speculating how so and so will impact their team. Isn't Kobe supposed to sign with the Knicks too? Hahaha. Not only would Sheed be taking a huge pay cut, but he'd be at best the 3rd option on a...

    Nooo...The Playoff Streak Is Over

    I had a feeling that the Jazz streak would end this year, but not necessarily the Blazers. But both surprised me in the end how hard they fought to preserve history. The Blazers' streak has been on since Jim Paxson was their star player, while Clyde was still a college junior. And the Jazz...

    do you think.....

    I think if you compare the teams, the Nets come up short this year, unlike years past. With the Pacers, the 2 and 5 are neutral, but the Pacers have the edge at the 3 and 4, whereas the Nets only have an edge at the 1 spot. That's enough that the Pacers should be able to win, especially with a...

    Kidd for Parker,Horry & Mercer?????

    That would be spectacular for San Antonio, but they'd lose youth in Parker. And New Jersey would be set back, perhaps low in the playoff picture, but that's an excellent young core in Martin, Jefferson and Parker.
