Agree. I'll be interested to see if nets make any noise in east. Lots of playoff hardened guys. West is going to be a knife fight. Should be fun!

Realistically, I give only Miami and Indy a real shot in the East, and San Antonio, OKC, and maybe Portland (because I'm biased) in the West. I suppose Houston and L.A. also could possibly do something. The others are only pretenders.

Houston has owned the spurs this year. But they might not even get there to try to knock them off. Okc is not playing well. Supporting cast has to pick it up or they could be in trouble. Miami at playoff time is hard to deal with. Should be fun!!
I like the facts the Nets tanked to play Heat in the second round.Agree. I'll be interested to see if nets make any noise in east. Lots of playoff hardened guys. West is going to be a knife fight. Should be fun!
My wish is simple: anybody but the Heat.
Two titles with the refs help are enough.

LOL! That's funny! Does hockey season ever end? They crown a champ and start a new season the following day. Or maybe they give them the week off for some off-season healing.

True, when they are not on strike (negotiating for better dental benefits).
Houston missed a chance if the trade rumours for rondo were serious
Who do you want going against Paul, Parker or Westbrook? Jeremy Lin?

How bad do you have to be to miss playoffs in the east. Rondo would get torched in west. Good thing he can sit home.

Philadelphia lost what, 25-26 games in a row, and they still weren't the worst team in the east.

Good point! Will be interesting to see how Knicks progress under Phil and maybe Steve Kerr.

In the meantime I'll enjoy my team getting their lottery pick.
Rondo missed half the season and the Celtics were tanking.How bad do you have to be to miss playoffs in the east. Rondo would get torched in west. Good thing he can sit home.
a few bits on info for you before he was injured last year he was leading the league in assists and Triple doubles.
He is far better than Westbrook and at his age Parker. If he improves his jumper he is better than Paul.

Westbrook is top 10 NBA player. Rondo isn't. He can sit home and learn and pout.

Repeat....Nets have some experienced guys who get rest now with no back to backs. That road win with Paul P throwing daggers in 4th was impressive. Raptors v old dinosaurs!
The guy in turban in nets jersey behind basket was making me laugh!!!

Agree, because you're absolutely correct. ; )
One area Rondo needs work on is his own head. He doesn't handle change well, he went into a prolonged slump when Perkins was traded to OKC. I actually think his injury helped him work through the Pierce/KG trade before being on the court. For the record no one here is over the Pierce/KG trade actually -- I get the why but I don't like it. That's the good part of being a fan, you don't have to like it but you still love your team.
I agree, Rondo can pout but other than that you're done-gone-nuts! (Respectfully said.)
Yes, Westbrook is a top player, (but let's say top 15).
No one is more clutch that Paul Pierce -- well except a few others but I refused to mention some of their names. I can't believe the Nets went with Kidd as coach -- what a jerk, not to mention untested and unexperienced.
No one thought it'd be this long. I think that he was in Boston with excellent mentors helped. He still has a somewhat cult feel here.
