"Thank you," he said, as he pondered how the dismantling of the Nets improves his team's chances this season. "They kicked the (stuffing) out of us last year." But with the Nets losing Kenyon Martin, Kerry Kittles, Lucious Harris and Rodney Rogers -- and the NBA's realigning after adding expansion Charlotte this season -- Thomas is feeling good about his team's chances to win the reconfigured Atlantic Division this year. </div> Link
I think even with Martin and company the Knicks could have won the Atlantic. Their additions were very strong this offseason.
Yup. As I said before I was looking forward to battling the Nets with out new healthy line up. But it's not that big of a deal. The Celtics I think are the biggest threat to us now but Knicks are simply better. So were going to take the Atlantic without too big of a fight.
