Clippers team looks good but we'll c if they can stay healthy

East:
orlando
cavs
boston
chicago
washington (will win 33+ easyy)
atlanta
toronto
miami


im really undecided this year...i want shaq and KG to get another ring but i really hate lebron and paul pierce...lifes tough

orlando over lakers to win it all (if they can make it past a healthy boston)

hornets wont win enough games for cp3 to get mvp, even though he deserves it..prolly go to either kg, kobe, lebron or dwight

i dont see toronto making the playoffs with the current roster. i agree on the cp3 part, dwight/lebron will win a lot of games and i personally dont think kobe or kgs stats will be good enuff (cuz they dont need to do much)

 

[BombFirst5]

yeah i guess i over valued toronto a little bit..probably cause my housemate keeps talkin them up..they'd probably be in contention for 8th seed though..chris bosh needs to step up, its about time he put on some weight, shoulda done that ages ago

 

[Killuminatii 71]

^I dont even think Chris Bosh is going to be in a Raptor's jersey for very long. He'll get traded.

 

[yak pac fatal]

^agreed. no one on that team plays defense or blocks shots. if there offense is off... blow out. bosh will be leaving this team, my guess is heat or knicks.

 

[Killuminatii 71]

Top 10 plays of the preseason. Haha, Wade gets swatted.

First, the guns. Then the unexcused absences. Now we can add a domestic violence report to the recent events section of the Delonte West dossier.

WOIO.com reports that Saturday night, West drove his wife to the Cleveland airport where an "incident" occurred. Reportedly the incident started at the couple's home where the Cavs' small guard tried to take her wedding ring off. After the argument continued to the airport, West's wife filed a domestic violence report with authorities. Police told the station there were no signs of abuse or injury.

Well, then. As long as he's managed to put all that trouble behind him.

There are two realities that are coming to clarity from all this. The first is that Delonte West's issues extend beyond the prototypical troubled NBA player getting tagged for DUI after a late night at the club. In a very short time he's exhibited a pattern of personal turbulence that spans multiple time zones, and that branches across unrest with the law, with his team, and now with his home life. Many said he needed help before this incident, but this just reinforces the point and it at least appears that he's not headed in the right direction.

The second reality is that the Cavs are going to have to start evaluating whether or not West is worth the headache, and if they can afford it this season. Make no mistake, they've got to make a locker room that suffered from hubris last season mesh with the largest ego (and posterior) in the NBA, get through Boston and Orlando, and then win a championship in order to secure the biggest star their entire state has ever had. So there's a little bit resting on this season. And while the team has bonded with West and has demonstrated patience and diligence in trying to help him resolve his issues, as the saying goes, it's a business. At some point these distractions are going to become too much for Cavaliers. They may not be at that point yet, but they can see it from there

dude is krazzzzzy
