Suns are done and so are the Mavs.

The West will come down to the Lakers, Jazz, Spurs, & Blazers.

you somehow forgot the team that is going to come out of the west- the rockets.

You're right

you can add them to the final 5. They have a chance to be dominant and a chance to be the Denver Nuggets. Personally, I'm hoping for the latter

you are right. if they are healthy, i think you are going to have to watch out for them in the west. if they arent, they will be nuggets-esque.

the team in the east that i think is going to be extremely well and surprise a lot of people this year are the raptors, assuming oneal is back to his all-star self, as he has said he is.

I'm unsure of Jermaine these days. I heard Rudi Johnson was in the best shape of his life when he got moved to the Lions a few weeks ago. He has about 9 yards in 2 weeks. We'll have to wait and see.

I think the East will come down to the C's, Sixers, Cavs, and the return of the Heat.

for me, the east will still be celtics, cavs, pistons. the wildcards are 76ers, magic & maybe raptors.

west will still be lakers, spurs, hornets & rockets or suns

Yahoo NBA fantasy is up for registration. What's the best and most competitive format of play? i.e. Rotisserie, fantasy points, or head-to-head.

I just started playing the NFL head-to-head and am addicted to it.

I'll start an NBA one if people are interested. Or if somebody else has a league goin' already, that'll be great.

Thanks.

I prefer the head to head style myself. I also like BB leagues with limited numbers of add/drops. Basketball tends to be a pickup and drop league which can be lame.

For years I have made jokes about how all the Celtics needed to win the Championship was Kevin Garnett. Every time I got tickets to the C's I would always get them against the Timberwolves just to see him work his magic (tickets were much cheaper back then haha). Last season was every true Celtic fans wet dream and personally I can't wait to see them do it again. I believe that they know what they lacked last year and it certainly wasn't much. Can the NBA season start tomorrow please?
