Hello America,

In every article relating far or close to basket ball, I've noticed that everybody is talking about the Miami Heat or the Los Angeles Lakers as if there were only these two teams competing in the upcoming season. Their respective roster is great, no doubt that they're serious pretenders to the "Graal", but what do you think about the chances of other teams, like for example the Chicago Bulls or others ?

You think D-Fish, Steve Blake, and Jordan Farmar are weak? (I don't like Jordan Farmar so yeah he's weak I wish we would trade him)

I really don't think Chicago will be a force to be reckoned with this year. Sure, they'll probably make playoffs, maybe even 4th seed, but they're not that big a deal. In the Eastern Conference the serious championship contenders are the Magic, Celtics, and Heat. In the Western Conference (which I haven't been paying too much attention to regarding team building in the off season) we have the Lakers, Mavericks and maybe some other team? Maybe I'm blanking out...

So yes, I think most people are talking about the Lakers and the Heat because this is a thread about the Heat and IF they get to finals it seems most likely they'll be competing against the Lakers considering the relatively easy path the Lakers have to the finals this year.

I didn't mean to imply they are weak, just that PG is a weak part of the Lakers compared to their strengths. That said D-Fish is not the player he was, and Steve Blake still needs to prove himself as a player, and in the Lakers system.

Farmar went to the Nets dawg thats why we went after Steve Blake.

To the only talking about Lakers and Heat thing:
Its already been said but yeah the bulls are good, not championship quality.There actually has been some talk about celtics and Magic if youve been paying attention to every post here, as well as mavs. The thing about the western conference is that it gets super competitive around the playoff teams, and then Lakers are just a step ahead of everyone so when youre talking about championships only the Lakers come up for the west, despite the amazing talent of many of the western teams.

I'm a Celtics fan. We just signed Shaq and Jermaine O'Neal, so i don't think the Heat will dominate. The Celtics and Lakers are definetly able to beat them. Also, the Heat are Dwayne Wade's team, and LeBron won't be able to stand being a sidekick.

3 of the top 4 teams are in the East (miami, orlando and boston).

The balance of power between the conferences should be more even then its been in a long time.
