Unless the NBA decides to realign the divisions, New Jersey will dominate that division for the next few years. Unless you think that speedbump in the middle, Olowokandi, is suddenly going to magically become Shaq in the offseason.
Personally...I thought Boston seriously screwed the pooch when they dealt away Marcus Banks. I guess that's offset a little by Boston sending the most overrated baller of the last decade (Spectator #8, Antoine Walker) to Miami.
New jersey scared me a few years ago when they had k-mart, j kidd, and jefferson. New jersey is a team that will always be in playoff contention, but as far as winning a championship no way.
Olwakandi will not be a member of the celtics next year due to his his expiring contract
Hey knicks fans here's a 7' foot stiff that will be a free agent im sure he's worth about 45 million.lol
Kendrick perkins and al jefferson will be the celtics starting frontcourt for years to come.
Marcus banks is highly inconsistent, if the NBA had a 40 yrd dash he'd probably win hands down. I miss his defense, but delonte west will prove to be a much more consistent point guard than banks. Delonte is a heady player and a better shotter than banks.
Now if Doc rivers can find some more minutes for gerald green id be happier. I havent even mentioned ryan gomes, what a find in the second round. Undersized power forward who has a high basketball IQ and can bang the boards.
