2011 CB draft: How does my team look?/division rankings

Lol...you had no idea he'd break his ankle, come on!
 

It's Andrew Bogut, of course he was going to get hurt.

Lol I argued this point the whole time.

Well, whoever predicted that Bogut was going to break his ankle (an injury he's never had before) before the season, you win an 'I'm sorry' from me.

Why does this STUPID blog have to notify people if they've made an edit.

Good luck beating the Pacers when Channing Frye is extending the court. Keeping Milsap out of the paint and such.

Meh. Chandler has played below his level defensively than he did last year all season so far. Diaw got hot early and has fallen off a bit of a cliff, and has been ordinary to awful as a bench player (better as a starter).

Miller, Billups, and Millsap have all been pretty pleasant surprises though, and LeBron is the obvious choice for MVP right now.

how much of that dropoff in D is due to playing for a D'antoni team vs a Carlisle team?  Not only would he be surrounded by far better defensive players on our team but he would be on a team whose defensive system includes, "playing defense"

[indeedproceed]

I really have no idea. Beyond that, new system, apparently (if Stat is any judge) half the team isn't pulling their weight (also possibly including Chandler, no names released)..lots of reasons for Chandler's down play.

But also, Chandler has been a pretty inconsistent player to begin with.

I dunno, from what I have seen of him this year, I think his skills coupled with the Man to Man D of the other 4 players the Kings would still be the best defensive team in the league.

Defensively, I think there's no argument. You're absolutely right.

Yeah, Im on board with that as well. I'd like to make a spirited defense if Bogut was healthy but...no bueno.

Whoever predicted that Andrew Bogut would get badly injured and miss a significant chunk of the season gets a " No D'uh" from me.

lol. Well that's fooled twice by Andrew Bogut. He joins Ersan Illyasova on the 'no-no' list.

Basically all of the Bucks should be on that list.

I think my team would have lots of potential and should have one my 1st round matchup.

Nets- Durant,Scola, Perkins Conly Jr, Rip Hamilton, Joel Anthony, Charlie Villanueva, Cj Miles, Kyrie Irving, Drew Gooden, Jordan Farmer, Vuvuecic.

Well Kyrie Irving is certainly a surprise. Would you play him next to Conley Jr?
