But with the season three-quarters complete, it is time, once again, to play ... I Don't Think Any of 'Em Can Win It.</div> Full Story By Jack McCallum
So in conlusion, there isn't a team in the league that can win the NBA championship. Well...that's disheartening. <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">The MINNESOTA TIMBERWOLVES have made giant strides, but they can't win it. Fitting Troy Hudson and Wally Szczerbiak back into a rotation that played so well without the duo will be a problem in May; Michael Olowokandi, as soft as a marshmallow, will be as unsuccessful as Rasho Nesterovic, Cherokee Parks or any of the other centers who have gassed out during the T-wolves' seven straight first-round exits; and Kevin Garnett will again find himself overburdened and over-defensed, and consequently, over by early June.</div> This is just nitpicking. He's talking about the past, not the present. I say they can win it all, and they probably will. <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Take the DETROIT PISTONS, for example. They can't win because coach Larry Brown is sniping at two of his starters, Tayshaun Prince and Chauncey Billups. They can't win because Mehmet Okur will grow weary at the increased attention being bestowed upon Rasheed Wallace and because Wallace will eventually blow up during a crucial situation.</div> I agree that the Pistons can't win it all, but that certainly isn't the reason why. The powerhouse West will produce the winner, sadly that's a given nowadays.
