    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Those magazine-like NBA season previews are starting to hit the newsstands and an Orlando writer has two of them. The two take very divergent views of the Nets' chances. Athlon and Lindy's, among the more respected previews, have the Nets either in the conference finals or barely making the playoffs. Athlon has the Nets winning the Atlantic over the Celtics and Raptors, then losing to the Bulls in the East finals. Lindy's has New Jersey finishing eighth in the East.</div></p>

    Athlon if I'm not wrong here predicted us to beat the Spurs in the Finals.

    Eh I think thats very plausible. We're either healthy or we're not. We are, and I believe we're an ECF team. We're not, 2nd round (As if I needed to say it anyway)

    Health is the key. Krstic, RJ over 82 last year, would have helped seeding. Krstic in the playoffs would have helped out alot.

    Same here. I even made a thread on JBB about it last year. I like Athlon though. They put out couragous yet smart predictions. I should go get the new one soon.</p>
