We know the Lakers are.....

[Cracker]

the best in the west but who is #2?

 

[MadCaddy]

Rockets.

 

[Uno]

rockets right now but the spurs in a couple of months. spurs are very slowly learning how to play without manu or tony and when they get those guys back they will be rested and have a much deeper bench.

remember rockets lost last night to a parker-less spurs team.

 

[Cracker]

The Spurs window is closing rapidly though

 

[gabbana]

rockets or jazz imo.

 

[Cracker]

so we have established...

1. Lakers
2. Rockets


Who's next right now? Jazz, SA, NO, Phx?

And how sad is Dallas looking up at Memphis?

 

[OTK]

lakers, jazz, spurs and suns will be the four best teams in the west this year imo. hornets, rockets and blazers aren't that far behind that group of four tho.
