    GSW Toronto and Philly.

    I really think GSW will shock some people if they're healthy.

    Celtics, Nuggets, Lakers, Nets, Spurs.

    Maybe the T-Wolves once Rubio is healthy. I have this weird affection for the Bucks, so them, too.

    Not looking forward to watching any of the crappy teams. Other than the Rockets that is of course. :p

    Rockets- obviously, I already told my wife, "you know how much I yell at the tv during NBA season? Well the team is worse this year so be prepared".

    Lakers/Knicks- because I hate them, and their fans glorify the team just based off of how they look on paper(don't get me wrong LA looks damn good)

    Miami- I hope they come back just as hungry and end up winning it all anyways

    OKC Thunder- If Miami doesn't win I hope they do. Despite their success they were young last year, I'm interested to see if they continue to develop and how much Ibaka improves

    NO,Minny,Philly- New talent to go with some good pieces that were already there.

    Celtics- I think they have a great roster, hope lee shines out in Beantown
    Hornets

    Golden State- Especially if Bogut is healthy that team could be pretty good.-

    Curry, Jack
    Thompson
    Barnes, Jefferson
    Lee, Landry
    Bogut, Beidrins

    If healthy, this should be a playoff team.

    None. With the Rockets sucking for the past two decades and the forming of these super teams, my interest in the NBA is near zero.

    Nice Laker fan thread. Go and enjoy your Lakers they I hope will not win another title for a very long time. I hope their old roster will break down towards the end of the season. Man I hate Lakers:grin:.

    Denvy and ourselves. Hopefully they can dump Gallo for another big man then I think they're all set to be darkhorse contenders in the playoffs.

    More like a Laker hating thread, but thanks for your contribution. Let's just watch some good basketball. Trust me the league would be a boring place if the Rox starting five set the bar instead of the Lakers/ Heat's five

    There's no point in hating the Lakers, they don't hate us back, it's not a rivalry.

    I'm extremely intrigued by the Nuggets. Iggy fits them on both ends like a glove, and man will McGee graduate from HS this year?

    None. I'll boycott the NBA outside of the Rockets, until Stern decides to give us a top 3 pick and another franchise cornerstone.

    Nets

    Lakers - That team is so loaded that some players will obviously sacrifice their scoring and adjust their styles. That won't be the first time for Kobe.

    Clippers - Ryan Hollins isn't special, I'm just glad they finally got another center, rather than a forward playing center. I might have picked the Clippers to be better than the Lakers before the Lakers got Meeks, Howard, Jamison and Nash. I'm also interested in Bledsoe getting a bigger role, Grant Hill contributing, and if Odom can get it back.

    Knicks - They look balanced. They may be better with Woodson coaching for a full season.

    Bulls - I like Nate Robinson, and it'll be interesting to see if they can get by considering the changes they made and losing Rose.

    Celtics - They did well making up for the loss of Ray Allen.

    I'm not that interested in OKC nor Miami. OKC will get Maynor back but they didn't add any post scoring. Miami didn't add any centers, though Lewis & Allen were good additions.
