    I think Shaq will only hurt the Suns chances to win the NBA championship sir. He's just going to slow down that run and gun style they like to play.

    I doubt that they'll continue to play the run & gun without D'Antoni. Terry Porter is going to implement alot of Rick Adelman's philosophy, which he learned as a player with the Trail Blazers, with a pass-happy offense and stingy defense. They don't necessarily have the right personnel to implement it, but with more emphasis on fundamentals, I doubt they'll often get blown out.

    Coming off a 26-56 season. The Milwaukee Bucks have a huge upside this year with the aqusition of Scott Skiles as head coach, and the trade they made to get Richard Jefferson.

    I hope the Magic go a step further this year. Dwight Howard will only get better.

    Rockets....They have 2 defensive players that can stop anybody, Battier and Artest..Yao ming is due for a breakout year, with Artest, they can afford to cut down on Yao mins....Dont be surprised if they come close to the 20 + win streak again...

    I read that the Suns are going to slow their offensive tempo down.....I don't know how much that's going to help them out. Maybe it will help ole' Shaq since he's not the fastest

    Shaq is done. He might have a few good minutes a game, than he's a dying elephant out there the rest of the time.

    Just look back at the playoffs. Heat were so lucky to get rid of him.

    TORONTO RAPTORS, didn't like the J O'Neal trade at first but if he's healthy they raptors should have a better team, He's won't be a 20-10 guy but as long as he can pull down some Rebounds play some D, he'll open up shots for Calderon, Bargnani, Kapono and lets not forget Bosh who is gonna have a monster year after a great olympics

    just like he did last season. we already saw it so why should anyone question whether it will happen again?

    phx is done, their coach dantoni knew it so he left to new york, the cellar dwellar knicks, he knows the knicks have more upside than phx does rite now

    Blazers are still too young I think. They are a couple years away yet. I think it comes down to the Celtics/Magic/Hornets/Lakers. Much the same as last year...

    the same 4 teams in the NBA NEVER repeat in the eastern conf/western conf finals, it NEVER happens these days

    lakers? YES, celtics probably unless they have no motivation now and are fat and happy

    hornets and magic now have a bulls eye on their backs and will find the going MUCH TOUGHER, and for the record, it was the PISTONS who made the eastern conf finals, not the MAGIC,

    and, it was the SPURS and the Lakers in the west finals, NOT the hornets

    monkey, i will continue to own you in ANY sports conversation anywhere anytime,

    dont ever disrespect me, every UNbiased poster here knows i am 100 times sharper than your dull ass
