The Pacific Division:  Where we have one good center between five teams, but can still kick your butt.

Tyson Chandler says "excuse me"

And I said "good center".

And he said, oops my bad.

How do people rank these two teams

Milwaukee
Kidd/Jack/
Rip/Cj Miles/Nick Young
Maggette/Barnes/Bogans
Dirk/Wright/S. Williams
Gortat/Turiaf

VS

Indiana
Fisher/Jonny Flynn
Bryant
Pietrus/Korver
Ty Thomas/Maxiell
Gasol/Kristic

I definitely think i have the depth advantage even where he does have backups

[nickagneta]

I'd contend that the Pacific is the best division in the league

I have to go with the Southeast.

You get your friends, I'll get mine. We'll meet outside the Cinema.

We're bigger. And cooler.

Suddenly all I can think about is the anchorman fight from Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy

Based off Official Roster Page I'd go with...

East:

1. Central
2. Southeast
3. Atlantic


West:

1. Pacific
2. North Pacific
3. Southwest

In my opinion, the rankings are pretty clean cut.

Some preliminary rankings ... for the East

Atlantic Division

#1 - New York Knicks - contender
#2 - Boston Celtics
#3 - Toronto Raptors
#4 - New Jersey Nets - lottery team

I am not sure who is on Phily's roster. So I left them out for now.

Central Division

#1 - Chicago - contender
#2 - Indiana
#3 - Milwaukee
#4/#5 - Cleveland / Detroit

It's been awhile since Indiana's roster has been updated so they might fall or rise, or stay exactly where they are, depending on their moves since then. They had a very nice foundation (Kobe, Pietrus, Tyrus, M.Gasol) to work with at their last update.

Southeast Division

#1 - Orlando - contender
#2 - Washington - contender
#3 - Atlanta
#4 - Miami
#5 - Charlotte/Seattle

----------------------------------

So, I think there are four contenders in the East. Chicago, New York, Orlando and Washington.

Us at 5th in our division is just silly.

But expected?

I definitely think i have the depth advantage even where he does have backups

I mean i think have the advantage in 3 out of the 5 starters with one going to kobe and Gortat/Gasol being a draw

I think Gasol is clearly better than Gortat, but the difference between your 3 advantages is far wider than the difference in his 2.

[nickagneta]

I did that just for giggles too. Turns out I started giggling so hard at my top 7 (Hinrich, Deng, James, Brand, Okafor, Miller, Duhon) that I just started crying...

Add in Kobe and Wade stopper extraordinaire Tony Allen and my guess is Faf could just have suspended the voting and handed over the Jeff Clark Trophy as winner of the CB Draft to the Bulls

Gasol is clearly better offensively and Gortat is clearly better defensively.  When you have dirk playing the PF, I would rather have the Defender at C

Especially without Roy playing, who would have dogged the Okafor Brand combo for a week and a half.

 You really underrate Gasol's D, but that's probably because you haven't watched 130+ Grizzlies games the past two years. And No, I don't want to talk about it.

Yeah, it would have been hard to vote against that team.  I guess to make IP feel better, Okafor + Brand would be a horribly slow front line, and would clog the lane a bit for James.  With Deng being a poor outside shooter, it would have been even worse.

See?  IP's team would have sucked.
