that a large number of the teams are capable of going right around .500. Like I said, MANy eastern conference teams improved and that there will be no easy games except atlanta IMHO--even the Bobcats--while they wont be in that group that will vie for the playoffs--cant still easily beat anyone. I still think it's Indiana Miami and Detroit and then you can make your picks from 4-12 because its so wide open with a great deal of parity. Look at the ECF standings now
Miami 4 0 1.000 -- 4 - 0 2 - 0 2 - 0 4 - 0 W-4
Indiana 4 1 .800 .5 4 - 1 1 - 1 3 - 0 3 - 0 L-1
Toronto 4 1 .800 .5 4 - 1 3 - 0 1 - 1 1 - 0 W-1
Detroit 3 1 .750 1 3 - 1 2 - 0 1 - 1 1 - 1 W-2
Milwaukee 2 1 .667 1.5 2 - 1 2 - 0 0 - 1 2 - 1 W-2
Orlando 3 2 .600 1.5 3 - 2 2 - 0 1 - 2 1 - 2 L-1
Washington 3 2 .600 1.5 3 - 2 1 - 1 2 - 1 2 - 2 W-1
Boston 2 2 .500 2 2 - 2 1 - 2 1 - 0 1 - 2 W-2
Cleveland 2 3 .400 2.5 2 - 3 1 - 1 1 - 2 1 - 3 W-2
New Jersey 2 3 .400 2.5 2 - 3 1 - 2 1 - 1 1 - 2 L-1
Philadelphia 2 3 .400 2.5 2 - 3 1 - 1 1 - 2 2 - 2 W-1
Charlotte 1 2 .333 2.5 1 - 2 1 - 1 0 - 1 1 - 2 L-1
New York 1 2 .333 2.5 1 - 2 1 - 1 0 - 1 1 - 1 W-1
Chicago 0 3 .000 3.5 0 - 3 0 - 2 0 - 1 0 - 2 L-3
Atlanta 0 4 .000 4 0 - 4 0 - 1 0 - 3 0 - 1 L-4

i think the main thing for the knicks is to steer clear of any losing streaks. losing a 2-3 at a time has to be tops. we cant afford a record of 10-20 so we are going to have to win in the west this year.

Yup, the NBA is beginning to look a little like the NFL.

Parity.

I am just unable to picture Toronto, Washington, and Milwaukee finishing with a winning record...Orlando MAY finish at .500 or a little higher.

But what a surprising start those teams have had! We'll see if they can keep it up. We still have to see our Knicks play more because compared to other teams we still haven't played. I hope the Knicks can keep playing more like how they played against Philly.

The Bucks suck.

Toronto and Washington both have great starting fives and decent depth on the bench.

Have you not been taking advantage of the NBA TV sneak preview???? I've been watching all the games, man. Toronto and Washington are gonna be in the playoffs and be there as winning teams.

Philly is trash though....The Knicks played the T-Wolves really well and let us down in Boston.....not really much you can get out of it.

I think we will see the Knicks true colors against the Clips and then on the back to back and the west coast swing......let's see if these guys can stand tall after these few games

impressive win by the raptors in utah last night.

it was a nice game to watch.

every year with league pass, there are always a couple of teams that i like to watch. last season it was milwaukee and denver.

this year, it's utah, toronto, and orlando.

the east is a clusterf'ck but we should still win our division.

What's with Toronto? Is it Rafer? They're not even playing their new center yet.
