I think we sweep Toronto this season. Unless they shoot like 50-60% from 3 in a game, I don't think they really have a chance. Hedo was a solid pickup. But they still didn't address their craptastic defense.

I thought Sweetney looked nice out there. Has good feet and hands. With everyone healthy, there won't be any playing time for either Williams or Sweets so there roster spot may only be a down the road type move. In that case, if it came down to it, I'd keep Sweets over Williams.

WOW!What a game by boston----you guys looked terrific. You played fantastic team oriented basketball,tight defense but you still played the right way. If you play this way during the regular season you'll have a good chance to be among the top 3 teams in the east.

I think Boston is the favorite to win the east. BUT you have to stay healthy--that is a big question mark.If healthy I'd put money on a Celtics-Spurs final or Celtics-Lakers.

totally agree but don't take that to the lakers board or you'll be banned for trolling. you know, for even suggesting that the spurs might be able to stay with the lakers in the WCF, let alone beat them.

Don't underestimate the Spurs---If healthy they are very tough to play--Parker,Ginobili,Jefferson,Dice,Duncan gives them 5 two way players and they definitely have the size and rebounding to stay with the tall Laker line-ups.
