    I disagree with most of this but it was an interesting article.

    Predicting the Wizards to be 8th & the Raptors to be 9th in the East is just disrespectful lol.

    i don’t think heat will make the playoffs unless michael beasley has like a monster season like 20-10 and they also have a bad bench

    I’ve just realized that the guys at ESPN are either completely retarded or really biased. Toronto finishing 9th?

    I disagree with a lot of it. Miami did nothing to improve their roster but sit back and hope that Beasley, chalmers, and a healthy O’neal improves them. But everyone else improved their roster and they can’t possibly expect any more from Wade can they?

    Here’s my list:

    1-Celtics
    2-Magic
    3-Cavs
    4-Wizards
    5-Hawks
    6-Raptors
    7-76ers
    8-Bulls
    9-Pacers
    10-Pistons
    11-Bobcats
    12-Heat
    13-Knicks
    14-Nets
    15-Bucks

    Wade can carry a team as well as anyone. But I’m not as high on Beasley as a lot of people. O’neal hasn’t been a major difference maker in years even when he was healthy. Basically, Wade played out of his mind and it resulted in 43 wins in what was a watered down year followed by a first round loss to a Hawks team that wasn’t even playing well.

    A handful of other teams will have to slip up for Wade to carry this heat team back to the playoffs again without any additional help in my humble opinion.
