Dallas played Denver pretty tough last year and they have gotten a lot better real quick by upgrading at two positions. Three really because you can now move Howard to the two-guard. This gives them more defense too. I also would not be surprised if by the trading deadline, Michael Redd is on that team.
I'm hearing that there may be another trade in the making involving Chicago, Utah, and Portland. What I heard is that Boozer may end up in Chicago, Hinrich to Portland, and Tyrus Thomas in Utah. I don't really see the point of this trade at all.
Odom has the Lakers over the barrell. They have to sign him. If they don't, they are noticeably weaker while all of their challengers have gotten stronger. If they don't, I wonder where he'll end up. This is interesting. I haven't seen an off season like this before.

Rasheed would be a low post threat that can still rebound and defend. He would address the glaring hole in the middle of the spurs line up. yeah, he would have made it interesting. A starting five of jefferson, duncan, parker, sheed and ginobli/whoever would have been very interesting.
Are you seriously going to keep touting the mavs after all of these years? Lets check out that lineup. Shawn Marion is supposed to be the answer? Please. He is 31 now and the luster is off the diamond. They still don't have an adequate low post threat. This lineup will get smoked by the top teams. Old, slow and poor down low usually doesnt make for a good team. You bring up malone and payton but conveniently leave out that they were being added to kobe bryant and Shaq. Dirk and Jason "notta" kidd arent kobe and shaq.
