Hey Landers, I'm very much excited about the upcoming NBA season, It's about 3 to 4 months premature, I know, I know, But I just can't help feel the excitement, especially about the draft, In my opinion, OJ Mayo is going to surprise alot of people, I'D have to say that he's a tad underrated and he's a lot to prove, Beasley is going to rip it up in Sout beach and I don't know about Rose, I know he's the top pick and all, but watching him in college, I thot he's more like a combo guard, who can make plays, a la Gilbert Arenas, Seems like the Bulls want him to be the next JKidd, CP3 or Deron Williams, The jury is still out on u young fella, I wonder what number he'll wear in Chicago(no. 23 is untouchable), Duhon signs wit the Knicks, I wonder where that leaves my man Marbury, I hope to goes to a team like Miami whre he he has chance to win and start (possibly), and yes He's still got game, You people should just cut him some slack, It broke my heart to see Baron sign with LA Clippers, Warriors were one of my fave teams these last few years, ONe of the best offences in the Association, Warriors better not Ellis go, same goes for Hawks with Josh Smith, Do u guys think Team USA, will suck it up, stop giving excuses and win gold this year?? It's about time, people are beginning to think they aren't the basketball powerhouse anymore, Your thoughts?  |

Yeah, they've put together a very good team this time around, Anything below Gold will be an underachievement,
I spoke too soon about LA Clippers, now that Elton has bolted to Philly, I don't like the Clippers' chances in that conference,
but man, Philly suddenly look very good, at least on paper, let's see what they do in the season, but they're loaded man, They've got Andre Miller, Iguodala, the promising rookie Young, Brand and Dalembart, they better keep that young exciting player, Louis Williams, kid can flat out ball man,
Baron Davis must be scratching his head very hard right now,
do u think the Raptors' fortunes will be significantly improved now that they've J. Oneal? I think, they just ought to get another point guard to back up Calderon,

Are you freaking kidding me. . . .
I just found out Brent Barry once won the Slam Dunk contest.
Now that is a shocker. . . .He beat Finley too, and Finley had mad hops back in the days you know.

@Doyin 13,
Of course Brent Barry won the slam dunk contest, then he was wit the clippers, Man u should've seen it, He did the free throw line dunk, a la Micheal Jordan,
he was a solid and flashy player in those days, used to play like Jason Williams, but more under control,
@gabe,
man i suggest u start rooting fr another team, the last time i checked, the signing of Duhon was the only thing they did so far this off season, but the season is stil a couple of months away, maybe a miracle could happen be4 then,

the knicks are a team very close to my heart. i dnt know y, i just love the team (maybe because of the magical 98 knicks that went all the way to the finals). well, i still have hope that they'll turn the corner and become a formidable team.

The knicks were the team that killed basketball, and Pat Riley was the primary Orchestrator.
Bloody chap slowed down the game with his play calling etc.
Turned Basketball into a fiesta of X and O'S

This season goes straight to the Houston Rockets. Now that we got Artest on the team. . . . what wonders we can do. I also have hopes for the Chicago Bulls. Being that they got that great freshmen player resulting from the draft, i have alot of hopes for that team. I really want to see how the Celtics come back acting. Will they have a big ego like the Pistons after they beat the Lakers, or will they come in humbly looking for their next win? Can't wait to find out.

Thats a good question the Pistons really let the title win get into their head and they have not recovered since even La Lakers that won 3 straight didnt show off that much |
