Do you think an Eastern team has a shot this year of winning the NBA title

[Dante]

only team right now I feel from the east that "could" do it is the Nets, I think they are playing the best ball...but its still early

 

[castaway]

No way, the Eastern Conf are equivlent to triple AAA teams.

 

[RPM]

anything can happen!!!!

 

[joeybats]

My money is on the wild west.

If Detroit played Dallas maybe, but I can't see any other matchup that would give much hope. Even a C Webb-less Kings team would be the easy favorites right now in the (L)East.

The NETS can beat Dallas! Mav's have ABSOLUTELY NO defense! Jason Kidd is in his Glory knowing they'll probably face the Mav's! A walk in the park through DETROIT! GO NETS! SPURS / NETS tough call!

 

[jjgold]

Nets only as long as they do not face Lakers.

 

[Journeyman]

Nets vs Dallas, WOULD BE FUN AND GUN COMPETETIVE BUT DALLAS WOULD PREVAIL...

LAKERS STILL LURKING

 

[JudgeWapner]

nope.

 

[HacheMan]

Yes, the Nets could pull it off. Call me crazy, but I believe the toughest team matchup~wise for New Jersey would be Dallas. Nets match up very well against the Spurs when you do a rundown of the players.......And yes, they could defeat the Lakers team this year being LA isnt getting the supporting help from the other players besides Kobe and Shaq that bailed them out time and time again in recent years.

Nets can beat Mavs, Spurs, and the Kings (w/o Webber)

Pistons can beat Mavs and Kings (w/o Webber)

Celtics can beat nobody

76ers can beat the Spurs.

Lakers can beat and will beat any Eastern team

 

[Shub]

Heat, bulls and Knicks

 

[The Great One returns]

The Great One will never understand why people bump these threads that are 10 years old. Most of those playing then are back into their old drug dealing days
