NBA Preview 2009-2010

Some random predictions for the 2009-2010 season... just spouting off at the mouth... intended as food-for-thought or conversation starters...

- The Knicks will suck. Hard. Their record will be among the 5 worst in the NBA.

- Mike D'Antoni will not be the head coach in 2010.

- The Nets will finish over .500 and have a solid year.

- If Cleveland gets Trevor Ariza and has no injuries to any big players, they will dominate the East and make it to the NBA Finals.

- Orlando will be much worse, now that they have Vince Cancer, I mean Carter. They will struggle and not make it out of the 2nd round of the East.

- If the Spurs get Rasheed Wallace and Ginobili and Duncan are healthy, they will come out of the West. They might come out of the West even without Rasheed.

- Blake Griffin will start a little slow but will eventually be averaging close to 20-10. He might even make the All-Star team. He's the real deal.

- Ricky Rubio will not play a minute in a Timberwolves uniform, this year or any other.

Mike D'Antoni will definitely be the coach in 2010. Donnie Walsh didn't sign him for last year and this year, they are obviously working together to build something starting in 2010.

The Nets will be ok, but .500 is about the best they can hope for give or take a few games. Also, I hate to say it, but they need to fire Lawrence Frank.

Cleveland runs away with the regular season in the East. We'll see what happens in the playoffs.

The Lakers will repeat. Ron Artest replacing Trevor Ariza is an amazing move.

Again with the Spurs. You've picked them every year for the past 12 years.

No way Rubio plays for Minnesota ever.
