Just for anyones edification, the Nuggets, Grizzlies, Pacers, Blazers, Sixers, and Bulls are all good this year. They have several things in common, they're all young, well-coached, deep, disciplined teams that have bought into a team concept and play defense. They're all confident, and will play hard every night.
Teams to stay away from: Knicks, Lakers, Celtics, Spurs, old teams that are thin at many positions. In the case of the Knicks, poorly coached and ill-disciplined as well.
