With the season coming up rather shortly I bring to you a series of "Division Winner" questions...WHO HAS THE BEST STARTING FIVE AND WHO HAS THE BEST BENCH??? WHO WILL WIN THE SOUTHEAST DIVISION AND HOW WILL THE OTHERS PLACE BEHIND THEM???

 

[ny3nyk]

i say the wizards. they have perfect team chemistry and play very well together. gilbert arenas is a scoring machine and brendan heywood is also hot on defense. caron butler has shown glimpses of all-star like play in his game and should flourish in washington. if antwan jamison can stay healthy then washington is still bound to make the playoffs. as for the heat, i think they will collapse on each other as their egos clash. the team is on shaq and dwayne wade's shoulders and walker and company dont seem to believe that. wade and shaq are also injury prone.

 

[nyk33334]

Miami. The VanGundy's have some real tough players on their side. Wether it's Houston or Miami. Im eager to see how Wade has developed over the break.

Heat no question

 

[Peach_NYK_21]

unless the heat prove us wrong and lose with that abundance of talent... it has to be them, they have to really slip up to not win this

 

[a knick fan]

the heat, obviously, but they have too many question marks and possible injuries and team chemistry issues to win it all. they remind me a little bit of the laker team with kobe, shaq, malone and payton.

 

[dasilva1079]

I don't care how bad Miami's team chemistry will be.... there is no way they will be worse than those other teams in that division.

 

[H20 OFFdaHizZLe]

the heat has a chance to screw everything up and just fail....antoine is a huuuge mistake in my opinion. he gun jack up 3s and not listen to anyone

 

[Royal One]

The Southeast Division is about as easy as the Titanic Division was last year. It will take a miracle for Miami to lose.

 

[pyotrveliky]

if antoine jacks 3 and doesnt play d u can bet he wont be playing and udonis will. just cuz hes there doesnt guarantee he gets playing time. they have to buy into the system and if he doesnt shaq will rip him apart.

OT-I was doing some googling, and I realized that New York's bitter "rivals" have finally made a site (non-NBA.com)! The site is www.insidetheheat.com and apparently theyre new. Check it out it seems interesting.

lol I was surprised.....

Antoine had a good night tonight and should that continue along with Wade & Shaq having good nights, the Heat will be a force to be reckoned with.

 

[pyotrveliky]

yeah, id start haslem over him, but looks like its working now. its a shame cuz haslem worked his butt off and was starting, now they sit him for that clown.

 

[NYK Way]

why does everyone hate on toine hes not that bad... he can average a double double just needs to improve his D and free throw shooting and a lil shot selection would help.

 

[Royal One]

That's not all....
