Orlando or Sacramento?

Which is the better team? The third best in the east with a positive record, or the eleventh best in the west with neagtive record? Actually Sactown has done well against the east, they has a 14-9 record, while Orl only .500 against the west.

This sums up pretty much how badly the L is lopsided. :crazy:

With Bibby and healthy I gotta go with the Kings.

Without Bibby definetly the Magic.

sactown wouldve been better had they traded bibby earlier, instead of bringing him back into the lineup when the team was starting to win games....

thats the same crap that happen the year when webber came back into the lineup when peja was havin a mvp season than return back to his old self

We would have a better record if it wasn't for Martin/Bibby/Artest out for so many games together earlier in the season.

Kings went 6-3 with Bibby back, I think.

As far who's better? I'm not sure, both have their flaws, fine and strong-points. But Dwight give Orlando an edge.

Orlando, just because they are 60% in the east doesn't mean that they are at the same level as a 40% team.

I'd go with Orlando simply off the strengths of Howard.

Wait a year or two to see how good the Kings will be.

Well, head to head, the Kings won one in Arco, but they have beaten some good teams at home, the upcoming match up should help with the argument

Howard >>>>>> Miller
Hedo >>>>>>> Moore
Lewis <<<< Artest
Evans/Bogans <<<<<Martin
Udrich and Nelson probably are around the same level.

I do like our bench better though, Williams,Salmons,Garcia, Hawes

however id still go with the Magic, Howard can pretty much take over games.

If the Kings were playing 2/3 of their games in the Eastern conference, I'd say they'd be playing at a near .60 clip, even despite the injuries. There is a large talent discrepancy between the Eastern and Western confernces.

As far as Sacramento, I think it'd be close if they were both in the Eastern Conference.

Is this a serious comparison? LOL. If you gonna use conference records to support ur pathethic argument make sure u compare apples to apples. You show Sac's record against the East but fail to show their record against the West. And you show Orl's record against the West but you fail to show their record against the East.

Sac is 11-19 against the West. 37% win %.

Orl is 12-12 against the West. 50% win %.

Sac is 14-9 against the East. 61% win %.

Orl is 22-10 against the East. 69% win %.

Who is better now?

I love it how u selectively leave important details out lol. Your logic is flawed.

Sac is good, I say they'd take a couple at home but I think Magic would win in 6

The only way Sacramento could win is if they're playing at home. Orlando is definitely the better team right now. Both teams have bright futures. Hawes, Martin, Garcia, and Udrih are all going to be amazing players. Dwight Howard is easily going to be the best big man in the game in a few years.

With the exception of Martin, none of those players will be anything more than decent bench or starting players.

Hawes is 19 years old and Garcia has been playing amazing. Garcia averages 17 and 5 as a starter. Give him playing time and he'll contribute. Udrih is a solid starter for the Kings.
