Yea they are toast, I dont think anyone expected them to contend this year.

They got rid of Chandler, Barea and Stevenson, all 3 were VITAL parts of their championship team last year, without them they were toast from the tip off of the season.

The other issue is that Dirk isn't playing at the same level this year.

  • You ain't the boss of the freakin' bedclothes.
The Knicks are just terrible, and Miami's defense is just shutting them down.

The Knicks are terrible because they lose a game to a team whose bench scored a combined 5 points, yet no starter played more than 37 minutes. That's crazy.

The Heat's defense shut them down, because despite the Knicks taking more shots, attempting more FT's, and getting more rebounds, and ONLY COMMITTING ONE MORE TOTAL TURNOVER, they still managed to lose by 17 points, and only scored 70.

"You've gotta respect a 15-percent 3-point shooter. A guy
like that is always lethal." - Evan 'The God' Turner

Evan Turner living up to the hype. I think Philly found its closer.

Now Andre Igoudala looks extremely expendable to the Sixers

It seems like Rose's injury just took the life out of the Bulls.

I think the Wizards just wanted to get rid of him and will live with the result, their main focus should be the development of John Wall, who has the talent potential to be an MVP type player in this league.
