New Jersey Nets; NBA Surprise

11 Dec 2008 10:21:21 PST

Written by Thomas Halzack
I've usually been on the "Lawrence Frank is a very good coach" side of things. But I was worried about the attitude and the unmotivated game of team star Vince Carter in what was to be a rebuilding year after dumping Jason Kidd and Richard Jefferson last season.

NBA Season Previews Part 2

30 Oct 2007 08:07:00 PDT

Written by FLCeltsFan
It is interesting to see the differences between the Athlon preview and this one. While both see the Celtics second to the Nets in the division and don't see the Celtics getting to the conference finals, Athlon sees the Heat finishing out of the playoffs and CBS see them going to the NBA Finals. Both see Phoenix winning it all this season. They ask if Pierce, Allen and Garnett make the Celtics the team to beat in the East. Here is part of their answer: But the other top teams in the East have something the Celtics don't: a solid bench. Players like Leon Powe, Tony Allen, and Brian Scalabrine aren't exactly scaring anybody. And that could be the difference when the playoffs arrive. Discuss this topic on the Celtics Green Forums!]
