Lots of haters recently drinking the ESPN Kool Aid and crucifying our team before the season starts.
I would counter that and argue that this year we WILL be a +500 team, and we WILL make the playoffs.
Here is the Eastern Conf teams list:
Cleveland
Orlando
Atlanta
Boston
Miami
Milwaukee
Charlotte
Chicago
Toronto
Indiana
New York
Detroit
Philadelphia
Washington
New Jersey
Who are we really afraid of here? I would say Boston, Miami, Orlando, and ATL. Milwaukee is pretty tough too, so we should split the season series with them.
The Atlantic Div isn't stacked, and I think we match up with most of the other teams very well.
Playing vs the West is always a crap shoot, usually the teams we "should" beat, end up shellacking us.
That being said, I think considering the makeup this new squad I think we can do +500 no problem. Come on, are we afraid of Amare and the Knicks? Detroit? No way.
