So when the Knicks inevitably rehire Isiah and make me give up on the team for good, should I become a Timberwolves fan because of how much I love Rubio and Love, Denver because of Gallo, Iggy, Miller, Mozzie and McGee, or the Bulls since my best friend is a huge bulls fan and I grew up in Chicago? Bulls would be the toughest because I still hate Michael Jordan and they lost Asik, but it'd be nice to follow a local team for once and Stacey King is tied with Clyde for my favorite announcer in any sport.

Obviously Wolves fan.

[MetSox17]

Kings fan because Boogie Cousins is the best center in the league.

If you're a New Yorker, you should go with the Nets! I LOVE their new image.

I'm not a New Yorker, but ew. I'm not going to root for the Celtics, Heat, Pacers, 6ers or Nets. Plus you actually like the Nets logo? I think that and the jerseys look terrible.

Nah it'll be one of those three teams cause they've been rotating as my second team for the past two years. If Nash had gone back to Dallas to play with Dirk they'd have probably been my pick, but it'll be one of those three when James Dolan finally drives me away.

I don't like it. I LOVE IT. hahaha. It's so sick. Classy. Million times better than what they had.... or what any other team has imo.

But since you won't go there... I'm telling you now... Be A Magic Fan!!!! The pain is SOOOOOOOOO worth it!

I hope so, but I've lost my faith in James Dolan to not **** everything he can up. You just know this dumbass is going to give Isiah a job again and we'll be ****** once everyone other than Melo retires.

Don't do that to me bro. Don't do that to me.

[Raiderz4Life]

Come to the dark side(LAL)....we have something better than cookies...rings!!

Plus the Nets have a brand new decrepit and rusted up arena.

I had better predictions for the Knicks when I thought it was sure they would bring Lin back. Letting him go was a terrible mistake.

[SuperPacker]

Warriors > Knicks

Word fail to describe how badly I don't want that to happen, but this is James freaking Dolan. That fucknut still thinks Isiah was good at his job.

[draftguru151]

Just wanted to remind everyone that this exists.

[bantx]

I'm trying to prepare myself for the obnoxious bandwagoning fans that LA has gotten and will be getting when the season starts, it's going to be hell.


Also be ready bitches!!

Blake Griffen is rated way too high on this list. His lack of defense is enough to justify that.

What? Kyrie is already making a case of being a top flight PG in this league right now. Chandler, while being a good defensive big lacks an offensive game and still fouls way too much. Was lucky to win the DPOY as it is.

Also 11-15 is up

[SickwithIt1010]

I remember when Elton Brand was good...

[bantx]

Dirk dropping to 11 :\

[SickwithIt1010]

If Dirk gets into better shape he will go back up. Last season was just a down year.

Cylde Drexler says the Suns are a 4 seed in the West, discuss.

[MetSox17]

I didn't know Clyde Drexler had a drug problem.

Bahahahahahahahahaha. Top teams in the West are clearly Oklahoma City, Lakers, San Antonio, Denver, Clippers, and Minnesota. The rest are just beneath.

[SickwithIt1010]

NBA rank is up to 6-10

10) Deron Williams
9) Russell Westbrook
8) Dwayne Wade
7) Kevin Love
6) Kobe Bryant

I think I'd swap D-Will and Westbrook but just my opinion.

[scottyboy]

yeahhh D-Will >Westbrook. D-Will's a more complete player. Not by much, I agree they should probably just be switched

[SickwithIt1010]

D-Will is so consistent. Westbrook can flat out lose a game for the Thunder when he gets in that mode. He's very comparable to Rose when he is on, but Rose is much more consistent with it. It'll be nice to see D-Will run with some talent around him.
