And yes johnwallace, I do think we can compete with some of those teams that you mentioned. I honestly see no reason why we can't.

What makes you think that?

I'd love to be optimistic about the Knicks again, but they're losing their two most impactful players (most likely), and all we have added is Darko. Hill looks like he's going to have a tough time getting on the floor based on how bad McGee and others blew him away. Douglas, he can play point for 10-15 minutes a night.

You are asking a ton from Chandler and Gallo to not only get better, but to carry the team.

If they can't and the scoring load falls on Hughes and Al... well we saw that episode for a while last year.

This is a bad team. Let's face it.

Alan Hahn: Nate Robinson has been on a ridonkulous scoring tear lately (remember when he couldn't hit Jerome James with a Big Mac in early January?)

If Gallo stays healthy and we resign Lee and get Sessions, we will be a playoff team. There is just too much offensive talent for us not to be able to outscore teams, even with our poor defense. I predict we will be the eight seed (and tell Utah to go screw themselves with our pick) and then get knocked out by Cleveland. Lebron can then see first hand his new teammates.

That would all be pretty nice.

and love them for giving him a free untouched lane to the hoop for 4 straight games.

3 of the top 5 teams last season ppg wise were the Warriors Knicks and Pacers. They were also 3 of the bottom 5 in ppg against.

If you're not going to stop anyone then you better out execute them. Sessions numbers in the clutch:

doesn't indicate he executes well when the game is tight. He has a very low passer rating and a low hands rating in the clutch.
