NOTABLE MID-SEASON TRANSACTIONS

- There was a major rumour early in the year suggesting some sort of deal between GSW & LAL where Kobe and Payton would trade teams but it never materialized

- Milwaukee traded 2nd year SG Benjamin Cobb (71) and their 1st rounder to Dallas for superrookie SF Yuri Klimov (72)

- Milwaukee traded C Andrew Bogut (85) and SF Luc Richard Mbha a Moute (71) to Minnesota for PG Jeff Teague (74) and SF Dorell Wright (76) - Milwaukee is fucked!

[B]BITS & BYTES

- Kris Destiny was the NBA player of the week 3 times during the season

- Travis Williams was the NBA player of the week for Dec 14-20

- I don't know how it possibly got missed but CHI signed Dirk Nowitzki to a 1 year deal for depth. Dirk is already making noise about wanting out though

- Blackening Awesome was said to be overheard saying he doesn't think the Sixers can contend and would therefore be looking to sign elsewhere in the summer

- Sometime in March NJ PG Deron Williams Tore his MCL and will be gone for the next 8-10 months

- Miami will be in tough. LeBron James tore a ligament in his hands on the eve of the playoffs and will miss the next 6-8 weeks

- Kris Destiny and Travis Williams were in the MVP conversation in the early part of the season.

- Grim Ario and Kris Destiny also received a fair bit of buzz for Defensive Player of the Year.

- Matt Payton was an early contender for Most Improved Player

- Those who believe in metric stats are saying the smartest passers in the game are actually Chris Scott (DET), Tim Dubya (CHA) and Matt Payton (ORL)

- Those same individuals are championing Grim Ario as the safest set of hands in the game with No-One Torn not being too far off

- This may be the biggest free agent class ever. Pablo Diablo (93), Travis Williams (92), Mitch Mitchelson (91), Golden Friend (91) Secsy Saint (91), Grim Ario (91), Steve Hit Hit (91), Chris Scott (90), Ira Vaughn (90), Rajon Rondo (90), Matthew Matthews (89), Obi Sanctimony (89), Kris Destiny (89), Tim Dubya (89), Patrick Patterson (86), No-One Torn (86), Blackening Awesome (86), LeMarcus Aldridge (84), Rudy Gay (83), Carlos Boozer (83), Rampage Reveille (82), Andrea Bargnani (81), Tony Parker (81) are all potentially up for grabs come July. Also Dwayne Wade, LeBron James and Chris Bosh all have player options which they could decline to try another master configuration. This off-season will be mental!!!

Never mind about the trade. Apparently I am a free agent. Would like to sign with another Rajahite or the Lakers if they sit Kobe to start me or move him to the 3.

Tyson

August 26th, 2011, 12:15 AM

Miami has Lebron, Wade, Bosh, Vaughn and Friend all under contract. You could get all 5 on the floor at the same time with Bosh at the 5, Wade and Vaughn at the 1 or 2, Friend at the 3 and LeBron at the 4. Quite curious to see what happens. Miami is my pick for the Championship for the next 5 years

As for Myself, Pabs, Secsy, Hit Hit, Patrick Patterson, Tyrus Thomas, Dirk Nowitzki. Their wasn't enough cap room to make up for the glut of talent. Unless we're willing to take a paycut, we may be sitting this year out.

Sancty

September 1st, 2011, 7:56 PM

So now we're all free agents ??

Yes, although I could not control where people went. I will now try to facilitate general trade requests for players in their 2nd contracts (try and see if you fit first plz)... although selecting where you end up will be hard due to the salary cap.

As for the players who went unsigned, everyone seems up for signing mid-level exceptions so I imagine we'll all be snapped up early in the season.

Pablo Diablo

Utah finally gets a SF...and I'm gone. I must be playing in the CBL.

We'll have a Miamiesque press conference talking about leading Fort Wayne to 10 championships

Grimario

September 1st, 2011, 8:06 PM

I would have happily taken a cut price salary to stay at NOH. So close, stupid knees :(

I got a bit of wood looking at my numbers before the injury though, massive game 6 in the second round for me.

Pablo Diablo

September 1st, 2011, 8:06 PM

That Miami team is scary.

Sweet_Chin_Music

September 1st, 2011, 8:37 PM

I gave Indiana a title, even took a hit in my offensive stats as a sacrifice to the team, and then leave? I was excited when I saw we got Kris...then find myself on another team. Oh well, all I can do is lead them to a title now.

Oh and also...

CHAMPION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

CHI-TOWN BABY, OUT OF THE SAC.

Excited to play for a team I actually like and with dubya.

JRSlim21

September 1st, 2011, 9:02 PM

Wtf?! How are we all supposed to work together in Chicago?! I guess Cewsh becomes Rose's backup and I move to the 2 to facilitate Dubya? Does Gibson move up to PF now?

Dubya

September 1st, 2011, 9:05 PM

Cewsh and Dubya to Chicago FTW !!!

Yeah, that's how it would seem to work in my head, JR.. who knows though.

Cewsh

September 1st, 2011, 9:10 PM

Honestly, i'm not going to complain if i'm the sixth man. Better than Sacramento.

Dubya

September 1st, 2011, 9:12 PM

Aye. Same here.. I'm just glad to be out of Charlotte.

Miami just got even scarier...

blackening

September 2nd, 2011, 2:24 AM

Ugh...I thought Philly was bad. Now I'm in Houston. Atleast we got the #1 pick and just signed Rudy Gay.

Sancty

September 2nd, 2011, 7:32 AM

To be honest, you really couldn't have gotten worse than PHI... well maybe WSH but they seem to be turning a corner as well. Matt Matthews and his capital sized ego seems to be a good fit for DC.

IGNORE EVERYTHING UNDER THIS NOTICE - INCOMPLETE

RAJAH TEAMS STARTING FIVES

Atlanta Hawks
C - Al Horford (84)
PF - Brandon Bass (68)
SF - Junior Haywood (67)
SG - Demar Derozan (85)
PG - Armon Johnson (74)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - Virtually the same crew. Should be somewhere in the 7-11 range in the East

Charlotte Bobcats
C - Dejuan Blair (80)
PF - BENZ INO (86)
SF - TIM DUBYA (89)
SG - Gerald Henderson (75)
PG - Ramon Sessions (77)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - Although Sessions took a step back, this looks to be a team that can challenge for that 6-10 range

Chicago Bulls
C - Joakim Noah (83)
PF - Carlos Boozer (85)
SF - JAY DOUGLAS (86)
SG - Ronnie Brewer (72)
PG - Derrick Rose (97)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - One of the four powerhouses in the East. Douglas better get his nerves under control. Some big matchups with ORL, MIA and NO await.

Denver NuggetsaA
C - Nene (75)
PF - KRIS DESTINY (89)
SF - Wilson Chandler (83)
SG - Aaron Afflalo (70)
PG - Ty Lawson (88)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - Last year I said "the holes are getting bigger, the ship is taking on water" I haven't seen enough repairs to give them the green light for the playoffs.

Detroit Pistons
C - Greg Monroe (83)
PF - OBI SANCTIMONY (90)
SF - CHRIS SCOTT (91)
SG - Ray Glover (84)
PG - Rodney Stuckey (81)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - Every year I predict a playoff push and on paper these guys are good enough to fulfil that. Any chance it holds true one of these seasons?

Golden State Warriors
C - Eddie Williamson (62)
PF - Ed Davis (82)
SF - MATT PAYTON (77)
SG - O.J. Mayo (93)
PG - Tony Parker (79)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - I imagine David Lee (79) will get considerable time at Center. Even still, this team has a volatile makeup. All sources indicate that Payton will play starter's minutes this year though.

Houston Rockets
C - RAMPAGE REVEILLE (82)
PF - Trevor Booker (73)
SF - Gerald Wallace (77)
SG - Kevin Martin (75)
PG - Nate Robinson (63) - Related to mood - has requested a trade
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - This ship is going down!

Indiana Pacers
C - Roy Hibbert (82)
PF - Patrick Patterson (84)
SF - Paul George (86)
SG - TRAVIS WILLIAMS (91)
PG - Darren Collison (86)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - If one of the big four mentioned earlier (MIA, NOH, CHI, ORL) falter at all, IND could make them look foolish. This team could win the NBA championship if a few things fall their way. That's how deep the East is. I'd predict a 4-6 finish for the Pacers though.

Memphis Grizzlies
C - STEVE HIT HIT (91)
PF - TYSON BELL (87)
SF - Rudy Gay (90)
SG - Monta Ellis (89)
PG - Michael Conley (81)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - They look like the overwhelming favourite in the West if not the NBA overall. This could be their last real shot at it though. Rudy Gay is also a free agent in the off-season.

New Jersey Nets
C - Brook Lopez (87)
PF - Jeff Green (78)
SF - Travis Outlaw (70)
SG - IRA VAUGHN (89)
PG - Deron Williams (90)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - Once again, New Jersey are like Diet Indiana, the same things apply but not in the same quantities. They'll finish somewhere from 5-8

New Orleans Hornets
C - GRIM ARIO (90)
PF - David West (73)
SF - Carmelo Anthony (92)
SG - Tracy McGrady (67)
PG - Chris Paul (94)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - The dropoff after the big 3 is staggering (West at 73). But this is a team that if it can get the most from Grim, Melo and CP3 could win everything. A NOH/MEM final would be spectacular to watch.

Philadelphia 76ers
C - Spencer Hawes (77)
PF - Vladimir Rodic (61)
SF - BLACKENING AWESOME (86)
SG - Evan Turner (84)
PG - Jrue Holiday (79)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - Still haven't filled the hole created by AI's (not that AI, this one likes to talk about practice), departure 2 years ago. They finish in the 10-15 range

Phoenix Suns
C - Robin Lopez (73)
PF - Tyler Hansbrough (72)
SF - Trevor Ariza (77)
SG - MITCH MITCHELSON (91)
PG - Raymond Mann (79)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - Poor Mitch. Once again may be the worst starting 5 in the NBA. He's the only legitimate starter. Good news is he'll have a chance to escape.

Sacramento Kings
C - Emeka Okafor (69)
PF - Jason Thompson (81)
SF - Andy Campbell (65)
SG - Tyreke Evans (93)
PG - CEWSH VON CEWSHENSTEIN (81)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - They're in trouble without D. Cousins. They'll likely drop out of the top 8.

Toronto Raptors
C - Andris Biedrins (71)
PF - Paul Millsap (79)
SF - Dajuan Summers (65)
SG - Wesley Matthews (76)
PG - SECSY SAINT (90)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - Last year I said "They look bad on paper but they looked bad on paper last year. If the coach can tame the Matt Matthews storm they could repeat last year's playoff appearance." - I was right. I'm saying the same thing this year.

UTAH JAZZ
C - Al Jefferson (84)
PF - Derrick Favors (88)
SF - Gordon Hayward (78)
SG - PABLO DIABLO (94)
PG - Devin Harris (81)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - Not the favourite in the West but easily a 3-6 team. Depending on the situation a conference finals appearance or NBA finals appearance is not out of the question.

Washington Wizards
C - Javale McGee (80)
PF - Andre Blatche (75)
SF - Danny Granger (80)
SG - GOLDEN FRIEND (91)
PG - Doug Francis (62)*
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - Last year I said "Washington is in real trouble of making Wall and Friend walk eventually." I was right about Wall. WSH are improved on every position except the replacement of Wall with the rookie Francis. Maybe they get a number one pick and have a ton of cash to spend to create a big 3 of their own in WSH. I'd doubt it though.

PRE-SEASON POWER RANKINGS

1) Charlotte - 3rd straight year in the top ten. I could see them actually making the post-season this time
2) Chicago - Back to back years at #2
11) Utah
3) Philadelphia - Last year NBA.com had them at 4 while I had them out of the playoffs. I was right. I'm right again this year
5) Memphis

6) Indiana - Up 11 spots. The best kept secret in the NBA is out
7) Miami
8) New Orleans - Up 21 spots from last year. Melo's gonna be a big deal
9) Sacramento - I see a much greater drop than the 5 provided by NBA.com
10) Oklahoma City

11) Atlanta
12) New Jersey
13) Detroit - 2nd straight year predicted at #13. I want to believe it!
14) Los Angeles Clippers
15) Orlando - This is their floor

16) Boston
17) Los Angeles Lakers - Up 11 spots. I think this may be the year they fall out of the Top 8 in the West.
18) Minnesota
19) San Antonio - The champs get no respect. Then again they were predicted at #26 going into last year...
20) Golden State

21) Cleveland - Last year at #16, I said "Up 11 spots. Don't see it." They went to the NBA finals.
22) Milwaukee
23) New York - 2 straight at 23
24) Dallas
25) Denver

26) Phoenix
27) Washington
28) Houston
29) Toronto
30) Portland - No idea why they dropped 20 spots

Charlotte Bobcats
C - Deandre Jordan (68)
PF - BENZ INO (90)
SF - Kenny Barnes (65)
SG - Gerald Henderson (75)
PG - Ramon Sessions (78)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - The bottom is gonna fall out on this one trick act. They'll compete for the ping pong balls

Chicago Bulls
C - Joakim Noah (78)
PF - Jean Trichet (55)
SF - TIM DUBYA (92)
SG - Ronnie Brewer (66)
PG - Derrick Rose (93)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - Sizable steps back for Noah, Brewer and Rose. Douglas is likely to see starting action and Cewsh will bring a reliable element to the bench. Expect the 3-6 range in the East.

Detroit Pistons
C - GRIM ARIO (91)
PF - Charlie Villanueva (71)
SF - Jackson Richardson (54)
SG - Ray Glover (86)
PG - Rodney Stuckey (80)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - Grim's a beast but can he make up for the loss of Obi and Chris Scott? - Ray Glover with another step forward and Greg Monroe (85) should actually start at PF. Pistons will be in the fight for the last couple of spots

Houston Rockets
C - Omer Asik (67)
PF - Trevor Booker (73)
SF - Rudy Gay (88)
SG - Kevin Martin (72)
PG - Kris Soto (70)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - Blackening Awsome will likely play the 4. Houston should contend for a playoff spot, whether they get it is debatable

Indiana Pacers
C - Roy Hibbert (84)
PF - KRIS DESTINY (94)
SF - Paul George (92)
SG - Brandon Rush (68)
PG - Aaron Brooks (74)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - Last year I said This team could win the NBA championship if a few things fall their way. I was right. They look just as good this year, especially when Darren Collison (89) takes over the point after recovering from a strained MCL

Los Angeles Lakers
C - Andrew Bynum (89)
PF - Pau Gasol (84)
SF - Terrence Williams (79)
SG - Kobe Bryant (88)
PG - Kyle Lowry (80)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - It's hard to think that this team didn't make the playoffs last year. The addition of Rev makes for an awesome front court that should only open up more opportunities for Showtime on the West Coast. Can everyone stay happy though? Top 3 in West this year.

Memphis Grizzlies
C - Eric Humphries (54)
PF - TYSON BELL (91)
SF - Reggie Williams (67)
SG - Monta Ellis (90)
PG - Michael Conley (81)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - Not the team they were last year but a playoff place should be secure. Will they be able to secure Tyson's name on a contract extension though?

Miami Heat
C - Jaime Bowen (68)
PF - Chris Bosh (85)
SF - LeBron James (97)
SG - GOLDEN FRIEND (96)
PG - Mario Chalmers (78)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - If they can keep everyone happy (including Wade and Vaughn) this team WILL win the NBA Championship this year.

Milwaukee Bucks
C - Yao Ming (67) - Related to mood, has demanded a trade
PF - Dornell Randle (73)* - Starter due to injury to Larry Sanders (80)
SF - Thaddeus Young (80)
SG - MITCH MITCHELSON (93)
PG - Jeremy Lin (74)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - A team that is on the rise. I don't see them cracking the top 8 but Mitch has done more with less.

New Jersey Nets
C - Brook Lopez (87)
PF - Jeff Green (79)
SF - Travis Outlaw (69)
SG - TRAVIS WILLIAMS (93)
PG - Deron Williams (77) - Torn MCL will miss 4-6 weeks
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - Travis Williams turned a few heads by bailing on the champs to play in New Jersey but this is a team that could make the East final but a lot of things have to go right.

Orlando Magic
C - Dwight Howard (95)
PF - Darrell Arthur (73)
SF - MATT PAYTON (91)
SG - Elton Olson (66)
PG - John Wall (97)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - Brandon Jennings (95) is likely to start at the 2 officially. This might be the one team that could knock out Miami in a seven game series in the entire league.

Toronto Raptors
C - NO-ONE TORN (87)
PF - Lamarcus Aldridge (84)
SF - Donnell Law (64)
SG - Wesley Matthews (75)
PG - Courtney Smith (77)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - They lost want-away Matt Matthews and Secsy Saint but may be the better for it. This is a team that has the look of a playoff team

UTAH JAZZ
C - Al Jefferson (84)
PF - Derrick Favors (91)
SF - CHRIS SCOTT (95)
SG - Nick Edwin (68)
PG - Devin Harris (80)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - This is a team that always seemed to underachieve. I don't know if exchanging a premier shooter like Pabs for a role player like Scott is the answer, I guess we'll see

Washington Wizards
C - Harold Burton (83)
PF - Andre Blatche (75)
SF - Danny Granger (79)
SG - Maurice Hill (72)*
PG - Matthew Matthews (91)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - Now that Wall and Friend are both gone, Matt Matthews is the new face of the franchise. They may be on the way up in the East though.

PRE-SEASON POWER RANKINGS

1) Miami - Hands up if you're surprised... :shifty: didn't think so.
2) Utah - Early reviews on Pabs-Out, Scott-In seem positive
3) Los Angeles Clippers - 11 spots up from last year. I didn't see this coming based on their roster
4) Orlando - Payton Power
5) Los Angeles Lakers - Up 12 spots.

6) Oklahoma City
7) Chicago - Despite the additions, down 5 from last year's projection
8) Milwaukee - Up 14 spots, Mitch owns Wisconsin!
9) Boston
10) New York - Up 13 spots without any real reason why

11) New Orleans
12) Indiana - The champs drop down.
13) Minnesota
14) Detroit - Scott/Obi out, Grim In, down 1 spot
15) Memphis - They must've really liked Hit Hit - Memphis down 10 spots

16) Charlotte - Drops 15 spots. No Dubya, big worries.
17) Atlanta
18) Sacramento
19) New Jersey - 7 spots lower after the Vaughn/Williams switch off
20) San Antonio

21) Philadelphia - 2 years ago NBA.com had them at 4 while I had them out of the playoffs. I was right. Last year NBA.com had them at 3 while I once again had them out of the playoffs. I was once again right. This year, NBA.com is on board with my predictions.
22) Cleveland
23) Toronto - Torn needs to rebuild the reputation of the Raptors, and perhaps his own in the process
24) Houston - They should be better than this. Awesome went from a bad place to a slightly less bad place (although NBA.com would disagree)
25) Portland

26) Washington
27) Golden State
28) Dallas
29) Denver
30) Phoenix - No Mitch, big problems

Not for nothing, but I can't see me not starting at the 2, or at least not getting significant minutes over Ronnie f'n Brewer. Or, we go with the pure offense juggernaut of Noah, Dubya, Douglas, Cewsh & Rose. Try to out hustle us.

[B]BITS & BYTES

-Ira Vaughn was rumoured to have asked for a trade but Miami would not deal the newly signed star

- Travis Williams was twice the POTW

- Grim Ario won POTW for back to back weeks in Jan and 3 times overall

- Matthew Matthews was twice the POTW

- Kris Destiny was the POTW for Feb 28-Mar 5

- Tyson Bell won the POTW for the last week of the regular season

- Matthew Matthews was the POTM for February

- Ira Vaughn was on the short list for Most Improved Player

- MIN - C Andrew Bogut Tore his ACL in January and will be gone for the year

- PHI - SF Roberto Gallardo Tore his patellar tendon in NOV and was done for the year

- MEM - Steve Hit Hit will be playing through a broken finger for the first month of the playoffs

- MEM - Monta Ellis tore his hamstring in mid-march and is still 2-4 weeks away from returning.

- A recent poll on ESPN's the Reporters revelaed Joakim Noah as their choice for best rebounder in the league with the Memphis Two - Steve Hit Hit and Tyson Bell shortly behind

- The same conversation revealed Tim Dubya (CHI) as their choice for smartest passer in the game, Chris Scott (UTH) wasn't far behind

- Those same individuals are championing LeBron James (MIA) as the safest set of hands in the game with Golden Friend (MIA), Steve Hit Hit (MEM) and Grim Ario (DET) also in the running.

- On PTI, Michael Wilbon said the guy he would most want to have running his offence was Mitch Mitchelson (MIL), Tony Kornheiser agreed but said that since Wilbon picked first he would have to take either Chris Paul (NOH) or Dubya (CHI) before settling on CP3.

- It may not be last year's level of awesomeness but it doesn't miss by much, this year's Free Agents should include Kevin Durant (97) Pablo Diablo (95), Dwayne Wade (94), Steve Hit Hit (92), Secsy Saint (91), Benz Ino (90), Matt Payton (89), Patrick Patterson (89), Tyson Bell (89), Ray Glover (87), Al Horford (85), Landry Fields (84), Greg Oden (84), Chris Bosh (83), Raymond Mann (82), Joe Johnson (82), Carlos Boozer (82), Xavier Henry (82), Marcus Thornton (81), Tyrus Thomas (80) and Danny Granger (80) are all potentially up for grabs come July. Also Dwayne Wade, LeBron James and Chris Bosh all have player options which they could decline to try another master configuration. This off-season will be mental!!![/QUOTE]

I know we're a few years in but that D&D front court of Howard & Nowitzki should draw them toward the conference finals at the least. Hopefully, the Second City Saints and I could take them out.

MIL - SG - Mitch Mitchelson - 14.7/6.0/10.0/1.8/0.8 - 40.2 - 3.3TPG - Scoring down, everything else significantly up - 2nd in APG, 4th in TPG, 3rd in MPG

CHI - SF - Jay Douglas - 15.1/5.5/0.5/1.2/0.6 - 27.1 - .263(3pt) 4.9FPG - Fouls significantly up in the Post-Season - Hockey Player in a basketball jersey? - 2nd in FPG
CHI - PG - Cewsh von Cewshenstein - 11.5/3.3/5.6/2.0/0.0 - 35.2 - .312FG, .177(3pt) - his atrocious shooting just got worse
CHI - SF - Tim Dubya - 6.6/4.1/5.6/1.2/0.6 - 29.6 - .273(3pt) - 4.4FPG - Very valuable role player during the run

MEM - PF - Tyson Bell - 21.0/11.8/1.6/1.8/1.6 - 39.6 - .676FT - Dominant in his 1 series. If he goes to a contender, watch out! - 5th in ORPG, 2nd in RPG
MEM - C - Steve Hit Hit - 7.6/10.0/1.0/0.4/1.2 - 30.2 - .267FG - Just abysmal in the 5 game series. Injury bug bites him again at the worst time. Shot only half the % he shot during regular season - 1st in ORPG

MIA - SG - Golden Friend - 13.7/4.7/5.6/1.3/1.2 - 32.8 -.527FG, .500 3pt - 4.6FPG - Amazing numbers again considering he's the #4 option - 4th in FPG
MIA - SG - Ira Vaughn - 7.4/2.8/2.0/0.8/0.5 - 24.4 - .263(3pt), .906FT - The sixth man 0/13 GS - His attitude is in the toilet, leading to shite play it appears. He is performing at 10OVR lower than his skill set would have him at naturally. That being said he should be a starter next year. I don't see how Miami can keep this lineup together over the off-season

ORL - SF - Matt Payton - 7.0/5.1/4.6/0.7/1.4 - 28.2 - 4.3FPG - 79/82 GS - Improved his shoddy shooting and had better numbers despite less playing time. Should be proud of his contribution.

DAL - PF - Obi Sanctimony - 17.7/7.2/4.2/0.3/1.7 - 32.3 - .521FG - 4.2FPG - The assist numbers stayed high in the off-season. Did very well despite being swept. Only 1 of the Mid-Level Mafia (nice) to have an option in the contract for next year.

NJN - SG - Travis Williams - 28.1/9.3/3.7/1.7/1.6 - 38.0 - Shot .643 from the field, .600from behind the arc, .909 from the stripe - Leading Scorer on team, just other worldly talent - 3rd in PPG, 2nd in FG%, 1st in 3PT%

DEN - PG - Secsy Saint - 9.9/3.0/8.4/2.2/1.0 - 37.3 - .350FG, .077(3pt), .679FT - Huge regression for Secsy in the Post-Season

IND - PF - Kris Destiny - 26.4/11.7/1.1/1.1/1.7 - 39.0 - .586FG - Leading scorer on team - Travis Who? - 4th in PPG, 3rd in RPG, 3rd in FG%

WSH - PG - Matthew Matthews - 16.6/4.2/9.2/1.4/1.6 - 37.8 - .267(3pt), .917FT - Outside of blocks, everything else was substantially down - 5th in APG, 3rd worst 3pt%

This leaves Steve Hit Hit as the lone holdout... multiple NBA GM's mentioned "injury concerns" but he'll end up somewhere by Jan 1 no doubt

Soooooooooooo close.

Man, that loss of Noah is gonna hurt.

And shit, look at Phoenix becoming a contender.

Sancty

September 6th, 2011, 6:25 PM

Phoenix, Washington and Memphis easily had the best off-seasons

Cewsh

September 6th, 2011, 6:43 PM

How the hell are teams affording like 4 top flight stars every off season?

Pretty close to home in Portland, playing with a "special" rookie, and out of Miami's shadow in Florida? I'm pretty excited about this.

RAJAH TEAMS STARTING FIVES

Chicago Bulls
C - Herbert Tinsley (61)
PF - Jean Trichet (59)
SF - TIM DUBYA (97)
SG - Herbert Hardin (66)
PG - Derrick Rose (96)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - Once again, Chicago's starting roster will be a mish-mash based on the extraordinary talent at their disposal. Expect to see Cewsh at the 2, Douglas or Dubya at the 3/4 or vice-versa. Last year they rode within my prediction to a 4th place spot. This year without Noah, 4 likely becomes 5-7.

Dallas Mavericks
C - DeMarcus Cousins (94)
PF - OBI SANCTIMONY (92)
SF - Billy Norris (76)
SG - Evan Turner (84)
PG - Tyronn Reeves (65)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - Dallas' only weakness is at the point. I wouldn't expect a repeat of last year's last-minute gasp into the post-season. Expect the 4-6 range in the West.

Detroit Pistons
C - GRIM ARIO (94)
PF - Charlie Villanueva (69)
SF - Jackson Richardson (56)
SG - Bob Barkley (87)
PG - Rodney Stuckey (79)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - The emergence of Bob Barkley made Ray Glover expendable but DET didn't add any more pieces to the puzzle. Expect Greg Monroe (89) to start the majority of the games at PF like last year (79/82). This team is good enough to make the playoffs in the East if the Twin Towers can stay healthy.

Golden State Warriors
C - RAMPAGE REVEILLE (83)
PF - Ed Davis (77) - Low due to morale
SF - Al Thornton (60)
SG - O.J. Mayo (93)
PG - Jameer Nelson (60)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - Another patchwork club, expect to see Wesley Johnson playing the point (81). They dropped out of 8th on the last day of the season last year, and that's their same range this year.

Indiana Pacers
C - Roy Hibbert (81)
PF - KRIS DESTINY (94)
SF - Paul George (92)
SG - Brandon Rush (65)
PG - Darren Collison (90)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - Once again, if they stay healthy they could win the NBA Championship. Destiny proved a seamless replacement for Williams. Anything but Top 4 in the East is a tragedy.

Miami Heat
C - Jaime Bowen (62) - Low due to Morale
PF - Chris Bosh (82)
SF - LeBron James (95)
SG - GOLDEN FRIEND (94)
PG - Mario Chalmers (65) - Low due to morale
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - This club is falling apart morale wise. The best thing to do would be trade Bowen and Chalmers, play Vaughn at the point (which should happen anyway), and maybe emerge as a top 4 team. If not, a first round loss wouldn't be shocking. Missing the playoffs would be though!

Milwaukee Bucks
C - Troy Longley (62)*
PF - Larry Sanders (79)
SF - Thaddeus Young (79)
SG - MITCH MITCHELSON (93)
PG - Jeremy Lin (66) - Low due to morale, has requested a trade
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - Mitch on a team with a bunch of spare parts. Naturally, they'll make the playoffs. That's how good Mitch is.

New Jersey Nets
C - Brook Lopez (89)
PF - Jeff Green (80)
SF - Chris Douglas-Roberts (71)
SG - TRAVIS WILLIAMS (95)
PG - Deron Williams (92)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - New Jersey is always overlooked in favour of the glamour teams. New Jersey could win the NBA Title and will finish in the 2-5 range in the East.

Phoenix Suns
C - Garret Siler (58)
PF - BENZ INO (92)
SF - Trevor Ariza (76)
SG - Dominique Jones (70) - Low due to morale
PG - SECSY SAINT (90)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - Tyson Bell will likely play the 5. Phoenix turns the franchise around in one off-season. It's going to be cool to be in the desert. 3-5 in the West.

Portland Trailblazers
C - Sebastian Andrews (80)
PF - John Larson (74)
SF - MATT PAYTON (91)
SG - Brandon Roy (82)
PG - Jonny Flynn (83)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - Payton got to go home to the Pacific Northwest. He is in a completely different scenario from his days in Orlando. He is now the #1 option. If he doesn't falter there is no reason why Portland can't sneak in the 6-8 range and make the playoffs.

San Antonio Spurs
C - Andrea Bargnani (80)
PF - Josh Smith (86)
SF - James Anderson (82)
SG - PABLO DIABLO (96)
PG - Michael Conley (81)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - Where the hell have these guys been? Since they won the title a few years back, we've heard nothing out of South Texas. That changes this year. San Antonio will finish in the 3-6 range in the West

Toronto Raptors
C - NO-ONE TORN (88)
PF - Lamarcus Aldridge (85)
SF - BLACKENING AWESOME (86)
SG - Wesley Matthews (73)
PG - Courtney Smith (78)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - I don't know how this team doesn't make the playoffs this year. It'll be in the 5-8 range but if they stay reasonably healthy there is no reason why they don't make the playoffs.

UTAH JAZZ
C - Al Jefferson (83)
PF - Derrick Favors (93)
SF - CHRIS SCOTT (96)
SG - Nick Edwin (64)
PG - Devin Harris (77)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - Odds are that Scott plays at SG and Gordon Hayward (83) plays at the 3. Father time is stripping Devin Harris of his skills, and Scott is a centerpiece who plays better as a #2 kinda guy. Jazz will finish in the 4-7 range and break hearts in the post-season once more.

Washington Wizards
C - Harold Burton (87)
PF - Patrick Patterson (87)
SF - Nicolas Batum (77)
SG - Maurice Hill (78)
PG - Matthew Matthews (92)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - Last year I said of the Wizards: They may be on the way up in the East though. - I had no idea how much! Arguably the most exciting improvements of the off-season happened in Obama's shadow (although Memphis might disagree). This team should be a Title threat for the next 4 years or so. It starts this year.

PRE-SEASON POWER RANKINGS

1) Memphis - Up from 15 - Do you think KD has anything to do with it?
2) Los Angeles Clippers
3) Utah - They'll break your heart
4) Indiana - Up 8 spots
5) San Antonio - Up 15 spots

6) Chicago
7) Los Angeles Lakers - I don't see it
8) Phoenix - Up 22 spots from the basement
9) New Jersey - They believe in Harvey Dent... and Travis Williams
10) Milwaukee - Hello Wisconsin #HelloWisconsin

11) Boston - Is Wade enough?
12) Detroit
13) Miami - They put the 'fun' in dysfunctional - What a difference a year makes
14) Dallas - Seems about right
15) Cleveland

16) Orlando - See Miami
17) Portland - Payton Power
18) Oklahoma City - KD is worth 12 spots apparently
19) New Orleans
20) Philadelphia - Might be about 10 spots too high

21) New York - No clue why this low. Is Patrick Patterson really worth this much?
22) Charlotte - Drops 6 more spots without Benz
23) Atlanta
24) Minnesota - The Champs get no respect
25) Sacramento

26) Houston
27) Washington - They couldn't be more wrong. WSH is at least 20 spots higher than this
28) Denver
29) Toronto - Also wrong. They'll be more in the 14-20 range
30) Golden State - Totally disagree with the Rajah teams in the bottom here.

NEWS & NOTES

PHX - SG Domnique Jones will actually miss the season with a torn achilles

CLE - PG D.J. Augustin will miss 6-8 weeks with a broken ankle

WSH - PF Patrick Patterson will miss 6-8 weeks with a torn hammy

MIL - SG Mitch Mithcelson will be playing the first 2-4 weeks through a Plantar Fasciitis injury

By no means RIP. I appreciate the shot in the arm though, I needed it.

I had typed up the next season in its entirety a few weeks back and then my firefox crashed and I lost the entire update. Put me off of typing it all up again but enough time has passed that I'm no longer angry about it.

I should have it up tomorrow night though... so please don't give up on it.

- The same poll revealed Chris Scott (UTH) as their choice for smartest passer in the game, although it was very close with Tim Dubya (CHI), Secsy Saint (PHX) and Matt Payton (POR) each having their backers

- The same program championed Grim Ario as having as the safest set of hands in the game and said you definitely didn't want to EVER let Boyd Jefferies (CLE) touch the ball.

- On PTI, Michael Wilbon said the guy he would most want to have running his offence was Secsy Saint (PHX), Tony Kornheiser agreed but said that since Wilbon picked first he would have to take Rajon Rondo while the annoying producer said that Chris Scott (UTH) and Tim Dubya (CHI) would be among his targets

- Jim Rome said that for his money, the player who he believes would most improve the number of wins for a team is Sacramento's Tyreke Evans

- For the first year in 3, free agency may result in less superstars not having contracts at the start of the season. Steve Hit Hit (93), the victim of this annual rite leads the class with Obi Sanctimony (92), Jay Douglas (92), Harold Burton (87), Bob Barkley (86), Wilson Chandler (83), Eric Gordon (83), Yi Jianlian (82), Danny Granger (80), Jason Thompson (80), Dwayne Wade (80 - Low due to sore knee) all available this year. Those close to Wade say he wants nothing more than to re-up in Beantown though.

RAJAH TEAMS STARTING FIVES

Atlanta Hawks
C - STEVE HIT HIT (95)
PF - Yi Jianlian (79)
SF - Danny Granger (75)
SG - DeMar DeRozan (88)
PG - Dean Sharpe (79)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - Harold Burton will likely be the actual starter at PF (89). Atlanta should challenge for a 1-4 spot.

Boston Celtics
C - Timofey Mozgov (64)
PF - Todd Nash (59)
SF - JAY DOUGLAS (92)
SG - Xavier Henry (88)
PG - Rajon Rondo (85)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - Wilson Chandler (81) will play the 4 in all liklihood. Boston needs a more talented man in the post but will make the playoffs in the 4-6 range.

Chicago Bulls
C - Calbert Petersen (64)
PF - Randolph Harlan (72)
SF - TIM DUBYA (98)
SG - Herbert Hardin (66)
PG - Derrick Rose (96)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - Last year I predicted 4-7 for the Bulls and they came in 8th. Without Douglas I see a similar finish. When Cewsh returns in 6-8 weeks, expect to see him starting at SG.

Detroit Pistons
C - GRIM ARIO (94)
PF - Trent Brady (70)
SF - Jackson Richardson (58)
SG - Stephon Rowland (84)
PG - Rodney Stuckey (75)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - The emergence of Stephon Rowland made Bob Barkley expendable but DET didn't add any more pieces to the puzzle. Greg Monroe isn't around to make the difference at PF. I don't see the playoffs this year. Grim has always proven to be Superman though.

Indiana Pacers
C - RAMPAGE REVEILLE (84)
PF - KRIS DESTINY (94)
SF - Quinn Rose (64)
SG - O.J. Mayo (96)
PG - Darren Collison (76) - Injured
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - The defending champs could do it again. They are DEEP! Expect 1-3 in the East

Miami Heat
C - Patrick Greene (60)
PF - Chris Bosh (71) - Injured
SF - LeBron James (96)
SG - GOLDEN FRIEND (95)
PG - Fred Booth (67)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - This club is thin once you get by the real starting five (which will see Vaughn at the point). Bosh is deteriorating fast! Miami should expect 5-8 this year.

Milwaukee Bucks
C - Troy Longley (64)
PF - Larry Sanders (79)
SF - Yuri Klimov (81)
SG - MITCH MITCHELSON (93)
PG - Jeremy Lin (66) - Low due to morale, has requested a trade for the second straight year
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - Mitch on a team with a bunch of spare parts. Last year this wasn't enough. With Detroit faltering there may be room. They could finish anywhere from 7-12 in the East

New Jersey Nets
C - Brook Lopez (89)
PF - Jeff Green (79)
SF - Travis Outlaw (66)
SG - TRAVIS WILLIAMS (96)
PG - Deron Williams (93)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - New Jersey is always overlooked in favour of the glamour teams. New Jersey could win the NBA Title and will finish in the 2-5 range in the East.

Phoenix Suns
C - Marcin Gortat (63)
PF - BENZ INO (95)
SF - Trevor Ariza (74)
SG - Bob Barkley (90)
PG - SECSY SAINT (91)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - With Bell likely starting at the 5. These are my pre-season picks for the NBA Championship!

Portland Trailblazers
C - Sebastian Andrews (80)
PF - Spencer Bremer (66)
SF - MATT PAYTON (94)
SG - Arthur Bowden (82)
PG - Jonny Flynn (83)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - Young and talented, Portland - much like Payton - has a sum performance greater than the parts that make it up. A very deep bench, 3-6 in the West.

San Antonio Spurs
C - Javale McGee (80)
PF - Josh Smith (84)
SF - James Anderson (82)
SG - PABLO DIABLO (96)
PG - Michael Conley (81)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - Only went .500 last year but San Antonio has to finish Top 5 in the West this year. They may be the deepest team in the league. Their top-level talent doesn't equal Phoenix but they are significantly deeper. Anything less than 5th is a major disappointment

Toronto Raptors
C - NO-ONE TORN (88)
PF - Lamarcus Aldridge (85)
SF - BLACKENING AWESOME (86)
SG - Herb Caffey (64)
PG - D.J. Augustin (79)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - Chronic underachievers. On paper, they should finish in the 6-9 range. Naturally they'll come in somewhere around 12th.

UTAH JAZZ
C - Al Jefferson (82)
PF - Derrick Favors (95)
SF - CHRIS SCOTT (88) - Mild injury
SG - Stan Waters (66)
PG - Douglas Sullivan (76)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - Odds are that Scott plays at SG and Gordon Hayward (83) plays at the 3. Father time has stripped Devin Harris back to a backup role and Scott is a centerpiece who plays better as a #2 kinda guy. Jazz will finish in the 4-7 range and break hearts in the post-season once more.

Washington Wizards
C - Neil Lawrence (56)
PF - OBI SANCTIMONY (91)
SF - Nicolas Batum (78)
SG - Maurice Hill (81)
PG - Matthew Matthews (92)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - Last year I said they'd be top 4, they were 3rd. The loss of Harold Burton is huge and neither Sanctimony or Patterson (88) play C. Sancty will likely end up playing the 3, Patterson the 4, and a trade is necessary to get a decent C. They could finish anywhere from 1st to 6th with the hole at the post.

PRE-SEASON POWER RANKINGS

1) Atlanta - Up 22 spots thanks to HIT HIT and other new talent
2) Boston - Up 9 spots. I know JD is in town but the voters are smoking something!
3) Los Angeles Clippers
4) Chicago - No JD, up 2 spots from last year
5) Orlando - Up 11 spots and I have no rationale

6) New Jersey - They believe in Harvey Dent... and Travis Williams
7) Utah - They'll break your heart
8) Los Angeles Lakers - No Kobe, No Gasol, No chance!
9) Milwaukee - Hello Wisconsin #HelloWisconsin
10) Indiana - Not the love I'm expecting the champs to get

11) San Antonio
12) Philadelphia - Who's the funny guy? Probably 18 spots too high
13) Detroit
14) Cleveland
15) New Orleans - NBA finalists just a few months ago and ZERO key losses in personnel

16) Phoenix - I can't figure this one out at all
17) Sacramento
18) Memphis - Down from #1 last year. With Kevin Durant in tow... no way!
19) Dallas
20) Miami - I'm no fan of theirs but seriously?

21) New York - They predicted the Knicks' demise last year, I'll assume they're right again
22) Washington - They couldn't have been more wrong last year with the Wizards at 27. I'll say they're about 20 spots low again this year
23) Oklahoma City - The Post Durant freefall continues in the eyes of the voters. They were #5 in the West last year
24) Minnesota - #4 in the West last year
25) Charlotte - A train wreck of a franchise

26) Toronto - See Charlotte? I hope I'm wrong.
27) Denver
28) Golden State
29) Portland - Payton Power doesn't count for much these days I guess... same for the Blazers' march to the Conference Finals last year
30) Houston - Definitely see Charlotte

NEWS & NOTES

CHI - Cewsh will miss the first 6-8 weeks with a Torn MCL suffered last year

MIA - Chris Bosh is out for 6-8 weeks with a Torn MCL

Grimario

November 3rd, 2011, 10:24 PM

Detroit Pistons
C - GRIM ARIO (94)
PF - Trent Brady (70)
SF - Jackson Richardson (58)
SG - Stephon Rowland (84)
PG - Rodney Stuckey (75)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - The emergence of Stephon Rowland made Bob Barkley expendable but DET didn't add any more pieces to the puzzle. Greg Monroe isn't around to make the difference at PF. I don't see the playoffs this year. Grim has always proven to be Superman though.

:heart:

Is our starting SF really that bad? Bloody hell :(

PLAYOFF TEAMS

WEST

1) Memphis (55-27) - Durant & Co are after a championship. Up 7 wins.
2) Phoenix (52-30) - A year to learn each other more results in 9 more W's
3) Houston (45-37) - Up 11 wins and I have no idea why
4) Minnesota (44-38) - Earns #4 seed due to division win
5) San Antonio (45-37) - 4 more wins good enough to make playoffs this year
6) Los Angeles Clippers (43-39) - The West is pretty unbalanced, 4 more wins made the playoffs this year
7) Portland (43-39) - 2 more wins and up a playoff seeding from last year. Dunno if I'd rather have MEM or PHX though...
8) Utah (42-40) - Up 12 wins

EAST

1) Miami (58-24) Up 12 wins riding a season for the ages by LeBron
2) Indiana (49-33) - The Champs are in good standing for a long playoff run
3) New Jersey (45-37) - Down 7 wins but sitting ok for the first round
4) Boston (45-37) - D.Wade to Jay Douglas meant 4 less wins
5) Atlanta (44-38) - The massive turnover brought 16 additional wins
6) Orlando (44-38) - Down 8 wins. Have they started their decline? Still a super strong club for a playoff run.
7) Washington (43-39) - 9 less wins. The hole at Center is glooming and the team is emotionally falling apart
8) Detroit (43-39) - Down 6 wins. They need to patch the holes on the squad.

NON-PLAYOFF TEAMS
Los Angeles Lakers (42-40) - Down 6 wins, missed playoffs on tiebreaker
Philadelphia (42-40) - Up 17 wins from last year, 26 over 2 years ago. The young talent is ready to make a realistic charge at the playoffs next year.
Toronto (40-42) - Up 3 wins. What is missing?
Denver (39-43)
Oklahoma City (37-45) - Down 8 wins from last year, 23 from 2 years ago - No Durant is a BIG deal
Charlotte (37-45) - Up 6 wins. It's a step in the right direction. A few more steps are necessary.
Milwaukee (36-46) - Up 3 wins. Mitch hates this game.
Dallas (35-47)
Cleveland (35-47) - D Wade is not a magic elixir
New Orleans (33-49) - From the NBA finals to a laughing stock - Down 11 wins
Golden State (31 - 51) - Down a win from last year.
Chicago (29-53) - Down 8 wins this year, 17 from 2 years ago
Sacramento (28-54) - Down 11 wins this year. Haven't surpassed 39 wins in the last 3 years.
New York (26-56) - Down 4 more wins

[B]BITS & BYTES

- Tyson Bell (PHX) was the POTW for Nov 5-11

- Matthew Matthews (WSH) was the POTW for Jan 21-27

- Kris Destiny (IND) was the POTW for Feb 25 - Mar 3

- Grim Ario (DET) was the POTW for Mar 25-31

- Early on new signee Harold Burton was unhappy in ATL

- Danny Granger (ATL), Jaime Bowen (ATL) & Roberto Gallardo (WSH) were also unhappy in new environments

- The arrival of Obi Sanctimony has Patrick Patterson looking for a trade

- LeBron James won 7 straight POTW awards and EVERY POTM award, Kevin Durant almost replicated the POTM in the West but Russell Westbrook won the first one

- Grim Ario was on the short list for DPOTY very early on

- Tyson Bell and MVP started to be said a lot starting around the new year

- DEN - SF Danilo Gallinari Tore his MCL on Valentine's Day and will be out til just before Xmas next year

- WSH - Starting SF Nicolas batum broke his back on the last game of the reg. season and will miss the first 6-8 weeks of the playoffs

- Thanks to a trade, Roberto Gallardo (WSH) was actually able to play 86 games this season

- A recent poll on ESPN's the Reporters revelaed DeJuan Blair from Charlotte as their choice for best rebounder in the league although No-One Torn (TOR) & Benz Ino (PHX) were also in the conversation

- The same poll revealed Chris Scott (UTH) as their choice for smartest passer in the game, although it was very close with Tim Dubya (CHI), Secsy Saint (PHX) and Matt Payton (POR) each having their backers

- The same program championed Grim Ario as having as the safest set of hands in the game, with Steve Hit Hit (ATL) & No-One Torn again having their backers and said you definitely didn't want to EVER let Tomas Flowers (MIA) touch the ball.

- On PTI, Michael Wilbon said the guy he would most want to have running his offence was Secsy Saint (PHX), Tony Kornheiser asked how anything can be definitive with Mitch Mitcheslon having the kind of year he had. They both said they would like to see what Tim Dubya (CHI) or Chris Scott (UTH) could do at the Point instead of their SF position.

- Jim Rome said that for his money, the player who he believes would most improve the number of wins for a team is Miami's LeBron James

- It could be another nutty off-season with O.J. Mayo (96), Brandon Jennings (96), Derrick Rose (95), Russell Westbrook (93), Obi Sanctimony (91), Brook Lopez (89), Dwane Wade (89), Danilo Gallinari (88), Michael Beasley (87), Anthony Randolph (87), Vitaly Semenko (85), Stephon Rowland (84), Jonny Flynn (83), Josh Smith (83), DeJuan Blair (83), Kevin Love (82), Jackson Mann (81), Andre Iguodala (81), Reggie Potter (80) and Julio Willis (80) all unattached and optionless at the end of the season.

Sancty

December 11th, 2011, 6:02 PM

Ok... we've all been in the league for a while so if you are disgruntled with your current team/situation... I will accept trade requests with a list of 5 teams you will take a trade to. I can't guarantee that you'll get to the team of your absolute choice (e.g. the much talked about Matthew/Torn combination) but it will get you into a better situation.

*This can only be used once every 2 seasons!
** If you signed to a team as a Free Agent (e.g. - Me), you must play one full season before requesting a trade

SF - Mitch Columbus (89)

PF -Stephon Eation (73)
SF - TIM DUBYA (96)
SG - Herbert Hardin (66)
PG - Derrick Rose (94)

PF - OBI SANCTIMONY (92)
SF - Danilo Gallinari (88)
SG - Gerald Henderson (74)
PG - Ty Lawson (87)

Detroit Pistons

SF - Johnny Dame (61)
SG - Benjamin Cobb (79)
PG - Rodney Stuckey (72)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - Greg Monroe (89) is back and playing the 4 in all liklihood. They could challenge for the 8 spot.

Indiana Pacers
C - RAMPAGE REVEILLE (80)
PF - KRIS DESTINY (93)
SF - Quinn Rose (64)
SG - Bill Mark (64)
PG - Darren Collison (81)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - No O.J. Mayo completely changes the tone of this team. Could go as high as 4 could be as low as 10

Miami Heat
C - Patrick Greene (62)
PF - Chris Bosh (78)
SF - LeBron James (94)
SG - IRA VAUGHN (95)
PG - Leo Price (61)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - In all likelihood we'll see Vaughn at the 1 and Golden Friend at the 2. This team could win the NBA Championship if they can address the lack of frontcourt depth

PF - Jeff Green (75)
SF - Chucky Leonard (62)
SG - TRAVIS WILLIAMS (94)
PG - Nate Daly (54)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - NJ lost Deron Williams and will be out of the playoffs unless a serious 3rd option shows up

Phoenix Suns

SF - Trevor Ariza (70)
SG - Bob Barkley (90)
PG - Russell Westbrook (93)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - With Bell likely starting at the 5 and Secsy Saint and the 2. I'll once again make the Suns my pre-season pick for the NBA title.

Portland Trailblazers
C - Sebastian Andrews (81)
PF - Amar'e Stoudemire (80)
SF - MATT PAYTON (94)
SG - Arthur Bowden (85)
PG - Jonny Flynn (84)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - Young and talented, Portland - much like Payton - has a sum performance greater than the parts that make it up. A very deep bench, 3-6 in the West.

San Antonio Spurs
C - Javale McGee (78)
PF - Edgar York (62)
SF - James Anderson (80)
SG - PABLO DIABLO (94)
PG - Jrue Holiday (79)

PF - Lamarcus Aldridge (84)

SF - CHRIS SCOTT (97)
SG - Stan Waters (68)
PG - Douglas Sullivan (79)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - Odds are that Scott plays at SG and Gordon Hayward (83) plays at the 3. Father time has stripped Devin Harris back to a backup role and Scott is a centerpiece who plays better as a #2 kinda guy. Jazz will finish in the 4-7 range and break hearts in the post-season once more.

Washington Wizards
C - Spencer Hawes (76)
PF - Patrick Patterson (88)
SF - Nicolas Batum (79)
SG - Maurice Hill (85)
PG - Matthew Matthews (92)
SANCTY'S PREDICTION - They could go 3rd, they could go 8th but they will make the playoffs.

PRE-SEASON POWER RANKINGS

1) Atlanta - Repeats at #1
2) Chicago - Up from #4 this year

5) Dallas

6) Utah - They'll break your heart!
7) Charlotte - Dwight Howard AND Mitch Mitchelson

9) Los Angeles Clippers
10) Denver - After a HUGE spending spree Denver is up 17 spots to start this year

11) Philadelphia
12) Cleveland
13) New Orleans
14) Phoenix - Again, I can't figure out why the panel is underranking Phoenix this year.
15) Milwaukee

16) Indiana - They will take a step back this year
17) Los Angeles Lakers - Drops 9 spots. Showtime is over!
18) Detroit - No love for a very talented Pistons team
19) San Antonio - Down 8 spots
20) Houston - Up 10 spots from the basement

21) Toronto - That's got to be low!

26) Minnesota
27) Golden State
28) Portland - Has to be low
29) Washington - They're going to be very bad this year

PLAYOFF TEAMS

WEST

1) Phoenix (60-22) - 8 more wins than last year and 17 up over the last 2. They want to win the title this year.

4) Dallas (48-34) - I can't explain this 14 win jump

6) New Orleans (46-36) - 13 more wins and they have a heck of a bounce back campaign

8) Detroit (43-39) - Identical Record. Identical Seed

NON-PLAYOFF TEAMS

Orlando (38-44) - Down 6 wins this year and 14 over the last two.

Minnesota (35-47) - Down 9 wins.
Portland (34-48) - Down 9 wins. Can't really explain this.

Golden State (28-54) - Down 3 wins.
Houston (27-55) - Down 18 wins. Worst drop of the year.

BITS & BYTES

- Travis Williams (NJ) was the POTW for Oct 26-27, Oct 28-Nov 3

- Grim Ario (DET) was the POTW for Nov 4-10 and Feb 24-Mar 2

- Tyson Bell was the POTW for Jan 20-26

- Matthew Matthews was the POTW for Mar 3-9

- John Wall beat Lebron James for the Eastern Conference POTM every month of the season but still lost the MVP to King James.

- John Wall had streaks of 7 week, 5 week and 3 week POTW award straks. At one point winning 12 of 13.

- John Wall (ORL) led the NBA with 32.5 PPG

- Dwight Howard (CHA) led the NBA with 12.9 RPG

- Ty Lawson (DEN) led the NBA with 10.4 APG

- John Wall (ORL) led the NBA with 2.9 SPG

- TYSON BELL (PHX) led the NBA with 2.2 BPG

- John Wall also led the NBA with 3.8 TPG

- Greg Oden (CLE) tore his achilles in December and missed the rest of the season.

- A recent poll on ESPN's Around The Horn revelaed Dwight Howard from Charlotte as their choice for best rebounder in the league although No-One Torn (TOR) & Rampage Reveille (IND) were also in the conversation

- The same poll revealed Secsy Saint (PHX) as their choice for smartest passer in the game, although it was very close with Tim Dubya (CHI), and Chris Scott (UTAH) each having their backers

- The same program championed Grim Ario (DET) as having as the safest set of hands in the game, with Benz Ino (PHX) and Pablo Diablo (SA) having their backers and said you definitely didn't want to EVER let Marcin Gortat (GS) touch the ball.

- On PTI, Michael Wilbon said the guy he would most want to have running his offence was Secsy Saint (PHX), Tony Kornheiser asked how anything can be definitive with Matthew Matthews having the kind of year he had. Tony Realli chimed in with Tim Dubya and the other two did at least hear him out.

- Jim Rome said that for his money, the player who he believes would most improve the number of wins for a team is Orlando's John Wall.

- Charles Barkley said that if you're asking him, the best player in the league is John Wall.

- It could be another nutty off-season with John Wall (95), Demarcus Cousins (95), Derrick Favors (94), Blake Griffin (94), Tyreke Evans (93), O.J. Mayo (92), Stephen Curry (90), James Harden (90), Paul George (90), Greg Monroe (89), Carmelo Anthony (89), Deron Williams (89), DeMar DeRozan (88), Ty Lawson (87) all unattached and optionless at the end of the season.

THIS IS YOUR WINDOW

Ok... we've all been in the league for a while so if you are disgruntled with your current team/situation... I will accept trade requests with a list of 5 teams you will take a trade to. I can't guarantee that you'll get to the team of your absolute choice (e.g. the much talked about Matthew/Torn combination) but it will get you into a better situation.

*This can only be used once every 2 seasons!
** If you signed to a team as a Free Agent (doesn't apply this season) you must play one full season before requesting a trade

THE WAY THE DOMINOES FALL

In a crazy flurry of moves, the following player movement occurred

1) Kris Destiny ended up in Chicago but the Bulls gave up Tim Dubya as part of the process
2) Grim Ario ended up in Milwaukee after all. 3 of the 5 teams on his list didn't even submit an offer.
3) Tim Dubya, as mentioned, ended up in Chicago. He may not ask to leave until next year.

PF - Carmelo Anthony (86)
SF - MATT PAYTON (94)

- Chris Bosh tore his meniscus and missed 4-6 weeks

- Derrick Favors shredded his MCL around Mar 1 and was done for the year

- Kevin Duarnt missed 2 months with a Broken Ankle

- Lebron James missed a month with a broken finger

- Pablo Diablo, Secsy Saint, Benz Ino, Tyson Bell, Obi Sanctimony, Chris Scott, Matt Payton, Ira Vaughn, Golden Friend, Travis Williams, Mitch Mitchelson, Matthew Matthews, Grim Ario, Steve Hit Hit and No-One Torn all received large numbers of All-Star votes

- Grim Ario cuased waves by announcing he was going to test Free Agency just before New Years

- Tyson Bell was in the MVP and DPOY races from the very start but fell out by Valentine's Day

- Matthew Matthews' name started getting MVP press around the 1st of Feb

- Grim Ario started making noise for DPOTY around Feb 1

- Carter Kneeneighbor was receiving press for ROY from the start as well

- Matthew Matthews won POTW from Dec 8-21, Jan 26-Feb 1, Feb 9-15

- Kris Destiny won POTW from Dec 22-28, merry Xmas indeed

- Grim Ario won POTW from Jan 19-25

- Tyson Bell won POTW from Feb 16-22

- Matthew Matthews was the POTM for December

- A recent poll on ESPN's Around The Horn revelaed Dwight Howard from Charlotte as their choice for best rebounder in the league.

- The same poll revealed Chris Scott (UTAH) as their choice for smartest passer in the game, although it was very close with Tim Dubya (DET), Secsy Saint (PHX) and Carter Kneeneighbor (MIL) each having their backers

- The same program championed No-One Torn (TOR) as having as the safest set of hands in the game, with Benz Ino (PHX), Grim Ario (MIL) and Obi Sanctimony (DEN) having their backers and said you definitely didn't want to EVER let Wilson Haston (GSW) touch the ball.

- On PTI, Michael Wilbon said the guy he would most want to have running his offence was Ty Lawson. Tony Kornheiser asked how anything can be definitive with Secsy Saint and Tim Dubya having the kinds of years they did. Tony Realli chimed in with Mitch Mithcelson and the other two did at least hear him out.

- Jim Rome said that for his money, the player who he believes would most improve the number of wins for a team is Orlando's John Wall but said Matthew Matthews would be a close 2nd.

- Charles Barkley said that if you're asking him, the best player in the league is John Wall although he did say he almost picked Matthew Matthews.

- It could be another nutty off-season with Chris Scott (97), Tim Dubya (96), Ira Vaughn (95), Travis Williams (94), Mitch Mitchelson (94), Golden Friend (94), Grim Ario (94), Tyreke Evans (93), Kris Destiny (93), Matthew Matthews (92), Jeremy Parker (90), James Harden (90), Dean Sharpe (88), Bert Doyle (88), Stephon Rowland (88), No-One Torn (87), Deron Williams (87), Blackening Awesome (85) and Rampage Reveille (77) all unattached and optionless at the end of the season.
