    Another pretty strong division, went with Chingy for a good starting lineup and bench.

    we have a bit of a race here, it's a really tough call as the Cavs, Bucks, Pistons and Pacers all have solid teams.

    I chose the Cavs because all 4 teams have good starters, the Cavs have what I think is the best bench.

    I vote for myself, but not just being a dick lol. I genuinely think that I have the best depth, and we're pretty even on the starters

    Was between the Pistons and Pacers for me. I voted Pacers with the expectation that Love contributes big as a rookie.

    I voted for Milwaukee Bucks because I think their starting unit is built to work with each other and have 5 talented starters, while the other teams only have 4 or won't have good chemistry.

    Dirk/Oden Duo=Studzo

    Dirk/Oden forms probably one of the best inside/outside combos down low the league has ever seen, and Oden and Conley have amazing chemsitry since they grew up with each other playing all those years. Jackson is a good defender, and can hit the long ball, and Thaddeus will only improve and doesn't need a lot of shots to be effective. I love my starting 5. :) My bench ain't too shabby either.

    I think chingy has a solid team, but Mo/Vince/Melo are all players who need the ball to be effective and he has no one who could score down low.

    GMJ started off strong, but his 9 person roster doesn't cut it.

    The Pacers are solidly built, but their backup guards off the bench are young and questionable on how they develop. I could see the frontcourt having a lot of fouling issues with the Lovemaker and Biedrins. Very very athletic at the SF position.

    The Pistons are pretty solid, but I think a team with height can go at them inside. Brand and Wilcox are both about 6-8, and against bigger teams that's not gonna cut it. Lots of scoring in the starting lineup, not sure a backcourt of Billups (half court oriented) and Barbosa (loves to run) can mesh as well on the court as it looks on paper.

    I like what KC did with Milwaukee in this. That's a damn good team, imo.

    It is hard for me to vote against a team with Deron and Biedrins, but I don't like the Pacers bench.

    Once I factor in all of the players that get a team an auto-no-vote from me, Bucks get my vote
