In the
west, if you want
flair, fun, funk, fantastic plays go for
Phoenix Suns. They are a contender too. Shaq Fu, Amare, Nash, Diaw, Barbosa, Grant Hill, Raja Bell - they are just loaded and Amare is the
new Shaq .
If you like
old school, tradition, old stuff go for San Antonio Spurs. Manu, Manu, Manu!! Timmy, Tony Mr. Longoria (desperate housewives)
If you like
trouble Los Angles Lakers is your team. Kobe the selfish, Gasol, Bynum, General Fisher.
Under dog: Houston Rockets. Yao Ming (7' 6"), Tracy McGrady, Trouble maker Artest
Spoilers: Denver Nuggests, Seattle Super Sonics, LA Clippers even.
Losers: the Sacramento Kings is your team. Memphis will do okay too.
East:
Why bother?? Yeah, I know Celtics won last year. Those are all hired goons. they only won 20 something games the year before. Staged final by the Commish.
Support Cleveland LeBron James (King James). He is the real deal one man show. I didn't think I would like to go watch any NBA game after Michael Jordan retired. I stand corrected.
Razzle Dazzle: New Orleans, will push everyone to the limit because of Chris Paul. Pound for pound best point guard in the league. Byron Scott is a very good coach.
Standing on a last leg: Detroit Pistons. will do good in the regular season as usual. Even may become the #1 team in the east. Surely Boston magic will go away this year.
Orlando is the
dark horse.
Unpredictable: Chicago. One season they are up and challenging the best, next season they are searching for a lottery pick.
Atlanta, Miami, Washington still missing some pieces.
Or you can go beyond the border and support a good team in Toronto.
