    T-Mac your predictions looks nice. That is what I would say.

    Raptors at #1? Yeah ok, don't come here and post that crap. Raptors won't go any higher than #8.

    You really think Golden State will make it over Houston?!

    Houston was right there last year, and with the Jazz gone, I think they move into that spot.

    1. Lakers- 4 HOFers, 3 (around)20ppg scorers, 2 All Stars, and a championship ring in a pear tree.....
    2. Spurs- Duncan leads his team once again, but comes up short to the newly powered Lakers.
    3. Kings- If Webber is healthy......if not, TWolves move up to 3, Kings slide to 5.
    4. TWolves- Newly added players like Cassell, Sprewell, and Kandi move Minnesota past Rd 1.
    5. Mavs- The defense of the Wolves is much better than the Mavs. KG will slow down Dirk, Sprewell will slow down Finley.......But on the opposite end, who is going to defend the Cassell, Sprewell, Garnett trio? Answer: No one.
    6. Phoenix- Marion, Marbury, Stoudamire....talented. Make the playoffs as a higher seed, and their reward is to lose to the Kings(with Webber), or to lose to the TWolves(if Kings are w/o Webber).
    7. Portland- They just keep sliding.......
    8. Houston- Ming leading the way wont be enought to overcome the Lakers.

    1. New Jersey- Repeat back to the finals.......their reward? Yet another sweep by the Lakers.....they must be getting used to this.
    2. Detroit- Improved, yes. But still need to find a way to get around NJ.
    3. Orlando- Yes....I think they will be one of the best Eastern Conference teams....allnet, if you still want to debate about it....
    4. Philidelphia- Grob can hit the mid range shots, something Phili lacked. Coleman is back. Iverson is Iverson.....
    5. New Orleans- Davis needs to be healthy for this team to go....
    6. Boston- Walker and Pierce lead the way.
    7. Indiana- O'Neal is still gold....but the loss of Miller will be catostrophic for them. He was a true center, and that gave Indiana a huge advantage.
    8. Toronto- VC is healthy. More veteran team than the team 2 years ago that made the playoffs. Last year, it took 42 wins to make the playoffs. I think Toronto will have around 42-45.

    --------

    Sorry..........but Bulls wont make it...........and this is coming from a huge Bulls fan.
