Just for the record if healthy the Rockets beat the Thunder. If Yao Ming is 100% the Thunder will have absolutely no awnser for him. They have Battier who can lock down anyone in the NBA. They have a great team defense and Scola as a kicker.

i want to know why everyone is thinking that detroit is going to be one of the worst teams in the nba we just got greg monroe great big man and kept every player key player on their roster then if there not in jury riddled like last year their guaranteed to get more wins plus detroit’s team is the deepest outside of the the most likely top 6 teams heat, magic, boston, bulls, hawks kind of hesitant on them and the bucks. Also cleveland guranteed second worst team in the nba and the nets will not improve that much from last year and the raptors ahead of detroit what a joke

there’s only 12 guys who can make each all-star team. Some guys get injured though but only 12 can make the team

Detroit has no chemistry what-so-ever. Dumars just got all the best players he could and expected them to perform.

If Oden is healthy, I think they’ll have a shot at getting the #2 spot in the West.
I don’t think there will be a 15-win gap in between #1 and #2 in the East.
Also, I think Wes Johnson or Evan Turner might get that spot on the All-Rookie 1st Team over Greg Monroe. I like your pick for James Anderson on that team

They have no PF. They are a team full of role players, Collison and Granger are good. Dunleavy is not very good but he will get points. They have horrible defense. Hibbert cant rebound so either them or Toronto will be the worst rebounding team. They are young and inexperienced and relying on New Orleans’s backups to boost them into the playoffs? I dont see that happening.

I love JaVale McGee and think he is a terrific prospect, but he is awful defensively at this point in his career and theres nothing to suggest him making a all-defensive team.

You will look like a fool once the pacers season is over. As much as I hate Tyler Hansborough, in the limited time he played last year he actually did pretty well. There is the power forward. Collison was a backup but showed clear signs of being a future all-star with good averages of like 18 and 9 when CP3 was out. Also most teams dont want to many stars, I think they have a good balance of stars to role players, but could use a better low post presence on both sides of the ball. And as for young and inexperienced, look at last years thunder, they could have easily upset the lakers in the first round last year. This goes to show that experience is a great thing to have but you can win without it.

I don’t see Darren Collison getting most improved player. He has already showed he is a quality NBA player. Sure he will have a statistical rise in his averages, but the sportswriters would have to consider the fact that he was averaging about 18 points and 9 dimes from the point Chris Paul went down up to the end of his rookie season. That was almost half the season. So would he really be improving if he were to average 17 points and 9 dimes this upcoming season?
I guess it would still be possible, but I just don’t see it happening.
