    Portland, Seattle, New York (it will be fun to watch Randolph and Curry together), Boston (Ray and Paul...awesome duo), Grizzlies (lots of young talent now), Atlanta, Charlotte, Phoenix, Toronto...Most of the teams I chose are teams that weren't good last year...I want to see if they can become good teams, and I want to see how their young guys do.

    1. Philadelphia 76ers - favorite team, obviously, and want to see if we can continue to play like we did after the Iverson trade last year. Can Iguodala continue to improve? Want to see how the rest of our young guys progress.2. Denver Nuggets - keep up with Iverson, and see if that team has anything to build on and if they can be contenders or just pretenders down the line.3. Phoenix Suns - do I even need to explain?4. Portland Trailblazers and Seattle Supersonics - Greg Oden, Kevin Durant... enough said.

    Memphis Grizzlies-Of course, they're my favorite team, new PG(and we have a two-hit duo of PGs who can really run the show), we're probably going to get a significant free agent and I want to see how Iavaroni gets this team to play.Orlando Magic-I cant wait to see how much Howards post game improves over the summer. Im really looking forward to Trevor Ariza, I think hes going to have a very good season, and Orlando is also probably going to get a big free agent.Portland Trailblazers-I want to see how much they improve defensively and if Frye/Aldridge can pick up the post scoring Portland lost in Randolph. I also want to see if Roy will improve significantly.

    I think Boston can be a 40 win team next season. Rajon Rondo will most likely start and his defense should spread throughout the team, Ray Allen, PP and Jefferson should all have all-star caliber seasons and if Perk can keep dropping some pounds and be ready to play some good defense, I can see Boston winning around 40 games more or less. Yalls record against the West team probably wont be great, but yall can make the playoffs in the East. Now its not the question is scoring, cause yall can defiently do that...its really if yall can stay healthy and turn into a good defensive team.

    I want to see if New York fails like they always do even after acquiring big name players...It will be interesting to see how the Warriors play without J-Rich being an option in that up-tempo offense, and I'd like to see the Wizards make it past the first round with Nick Young filling their need at the 2.

    To be honest im really looking foward to seeing the Portland Trailblazers play next season but of course I mostly can't wait for Philly to play, I think there going to easley exceed expectations that have been given to them.I also want to see the Celtics, Bobcats and the Knicks play next season.

    <span style="font-family:Tahoma">Obviously we are all looking forward to seeing our favorite teams, and all. But aside from them, Boston is a team I really wanna see. Always been a fan of Ray Allen and I like PP, so I can't wait to see how well they do this year. Portland, too. Wanna see how Greg Oden does. </span>

    Re: The team(s) you're looking forward to the most in the 07-08 season...

    1. Boston CelticsPaul Pierce, Ray Allen, and Al Jefferson mixed with some other excellent young talent. I can't wait. I still don't think we're done dealing or adding to the roster, we are certainly not a finished product, but this is very exciting. Every contender has 2-3 big pieces, good team defense, and solid role players. We have our 3 stars, we will win games in the regular season and certainly make the playoffs, but it will be interesting to see how far we can actually go. I love having Rondo as the man running the show, I'm excited for TA to come back, and of course the other young guys should make improvements. I think we can win 40-45 games.2. Chicago BullsPeople keep talking like "If Cleveland is the top dog in the East, then that's just sad." I don't think Cleveland is the best team in the East, I think Chicago and Detroit are better still. But the Bulls are certainly one of my favorite teams to watch, I really don't dislike anybody on the team (although I don't like Tyrus Thomas as a person), they are a great defensive team, and of course they are all going to have another year under their belt. I hope they can get themselves a scorer in the post, I don't think they'll win anything until that happens, but they are probably my favorite team outside of the Celtics.3. Seattle SonicsObviously Durant, but as a Georgetown fan, I can't wait to see my man Jeff Green in the NBA. I'll also miss Delonte West in Boston, I'm interested to see how Robert Swift returns, and I like Earl Watson.4. Houston RocketsIt will be extremely interesting to see if Adleman can revamp this offense, revive Bonzi, and get this team out of the 1st round for Christ's sake. Houston is one of my favorite teams as well, I hope T-Mac can finally get out of the first round, and I hope Adleman works wonders for them. I also hope they can still mentally carry Van Gundy's defensive mindset while they change their schemes offensively.5. Charlotte BobcatsI'm still really not a fan of the Richardson deal, but whether I like it or not, Charlotte could very well be a playoff team this year. They have the interior presence, they have the go-to scorer, they have a top 10 point guard in Ray Felton who is only going to get better (I think he will have an outstanding year), they have a new coach in Vincent who can hopefully manage the substitution patterns better than Bickerstaff did, and it will be interesting to see if Morrison has a more efficient year. I also hope Sean May can stay healthy, because he can really play. Re-signing Gerald Wallace is a must. I can't wait to see this young, energetic group.6. Denver NuggetsI hope Iverson/Melo take Denver to bigger and better things next year. Both want it, the team just needs to stay healthy and hopefully improve their team defensively this year. It would be great to see these guys win more games and hopefully advance in the playoffs, mostly because I want to see Iverson happy and winning.

    Aside from Houston, I really want to see Boston. I want to see how far they can go now that Ray Allen is in Boston. I also want to see Portland and Seattle play for obvious reasons.The New York Knicks are another team I want to see play. With Zach Randolph added into the mix now, I think the Knicks can contend for the playoffs now.

    The 76ers, just because I'm excited to see if they can build on what they did last year without Allen Iverson. They can play faster, use their athletes on the wing with Miller pushing the ball, and like bigmo said, how is Igoudala going to react playing a full year as the go to scorer on the team? I can't wait to see them play.The Grizzlies, I love watching point guards, especially young ones. So I can't wait to see Conley when he steps onto the court to play.The Timberwolves, and Hawks. The Hawks were already getting better, but with the addition of Al Horford from the University of Florida, I can't wait to watch. Gotta love those Gators dudes. Same for the Timberwolves, I can't wait to see Brewer get out there and play. A defensive tandem of him on the wings, and Garnett down low could end up working well. I hope it does.Of course the Bobcats also. Like Celticballa said, I think they have a top 10 point guard in the league in Felton this upcoming season, and once again I love watching point guard play. With no pressure from anyone to take his job, or share time, he will be solid as a starter. I can't wait to watch this team.
