Any NBA fans in here? Predictions for this season?

[Phidelt076]

Hey gang,

I'm pretty excited that the NBA season has finally started. I'm looking forward to my Mavs redeeming their piss poor end of the finals. Here's some food for thought:

1. It was great to see Miami get destroyed on opening night. My cheeks were sore from smiling so much. Wade's technical for complaining was iceing on the cake.

2. Who gets more complaining techs this year? Duncan or Sheed?

3. How good is Houston going to be when they start to click and will T-Mac and Yao stay healthy?

4. Amare...... I like Phoenix but I can't stand this guy. I hope he returns to his old self so they run out of excuses.

5. I'm going for New Jersey to win the East. I think they have the best chance.

6. Dallas or San Antonio. Who wins the West? Will Ginobli ever go near Dirk in a game again.

That's all I got for now.... need to get back to work so I can catch the start of tonights game.

He is a few years away from a title. He still has to face the Spurs, Mavs and Suns, all teams that would beat them in the finals.

I'm a MLB fan in withdrawl just waiting for the winter meetings. Not a NFL fan ... except for the Raiders and they suc%. Just don't understand NHL. Watched NBA last winter and really enjoyed it ... until the NCAA tourney started ... then I lost track and didn't care any more.

Hopefully this isn't another agonizing season of under-achivement for my Warriors. Yet, after watching yesterday's game...

I haven't been into the NBA for quite some time. If Houston starts getting it together I may get back into it though.

I think aquiring Ben Wallace makes the Bulls the team to watch in the east. I think he gets them deep into playoffs this year. Miami is still the team to beat though. As always, the Cavs will be the most fun to watch.

West is up for grabs as it is every year almost. Dallas and San Antonio at the top, but watch out for the Clippers.

I agree with what Mike Wilbon said about Sheed - over/under for technicals this year is 47. Guy just won't learn, which is sad because he can be such a dominate player.

<~~ This years NBA champs. An over aggresive play by Ginobili cost us the repeat. No sour apples though, it was a great series.

Miami has the target on their backs, lets see if they can handle the pressure.

Bron has a few years of takin his licks before he can win a championship.

The Bulls are vastly improved defensively, but can they score?

I think the title will go to the West this year.

how can you not like amare? he's young...hard working...a little socially awkward but i can't blame the guy too much for that.

i'm obviously biased as a HUGE Suns fan. I never make predictions but I think they have a great shot at coming out of hte West this year...but they are going to have to get through the Spurs Mavs and Clips first.

I never got into basketball. All that matters is the last 30 seconds, why not play only 30 seconds of basketball?
