Disagreements
1 Boston Was #4 last year. Lost coach O'Brien but
Doc Rivers is an adequate replacement.
2 Cleveland Missed playoffs last year. Lost PF Boozer
and Gooden is not his equal. Pure LeBron hype.
3 Milwaukee Playoff team at 500. Small market team plays
team basketball without superstars and gets no respect.
4 Chicago Da Bulls: A competitive team if Ben Gordon
and the Baby Bulls contribute
.
5 Philadelphia Missed playoffs last year and CNNSI Mis-understands
why 76er's were bad last year -
too old - not too many injuries
6 Orlando Terrible team traded 4 starters -
If Grant Hill returns then Orlando is better than NY
.
7 New Jersey Was an elite team last year but they lost far too much -
CNNSI is being kind ranking them #8.
