Since the start of our franchise, we're tied in the East for the best record?

I too think we could potentially have an 8-10 seed team in the East. Jameer, Afflalo, and Baby will get theirs. But if just a few of Vucevic, Nicholson, Harkless, O'Quinn have really surprising years, then I could see us pulling a poor man's version of the Denver Nuggets post-Melo trade. I think we'll definitely struggle to beat the playoff teams, but it wouldn't surprise me if we have a very good record against the non-playoff teams, possibly putting us in contention for a playoff spot. It all depends on the kind of play we get from the young guys.

I think we don't make anymore trades until the trade deadline, when some of the vets ante up their trade value (JJ, Harrington) and I think Hennigan goes all in with his assets to try to pry either a lottery pick (as Portland did last year) or a couple of 1st rounders, either for 2013 or 2014. Hopefully 2014.

I am not sold on Nick and Al over Anderson and Earl yet until games are played.

Miami
Boston
New York
Philadelphia
New Jersey
Chicago
Indiana
Cleveland
Atlanta
Milwaukee
Washington

No way we have a better record then those teams above, we are in the same class and TOR, DET and CHA. We will not make the playoffs, plus our defense will be terrible.

I can see that on Nick, but Al is much better than Earl.

why will our defense be terrible? I don't think it'll be that bad.

I don't get why I see people rooting for us to hit the 8th seed.

Do you people not realize that would ruin our chances at even being remotely good the next 5 years?

We really don't have any crazy good defenders. Do we even know if Vaughn can coach a defensive minded team? I'm seeing way too many ifs about our defense.

Nick hasn't even played an NBA game yet. Until he can show he is better than Earl Clark, he is not better than Earl Clark. Nick hasn't done shiatt yet. Anyone can look good in summer league games. Jerryl Sasser looked good in summer league games.
