2009/10 Review: The Denver Nuggets were 2 games away from being in the NBA Finals two seasons ago and their high expectations were pretty legit going for the last season. Admittedly they wanted to win it all last season, but in doing so they would have to enjoy another lucky injury-free season. Unfortunately that didn’t happen and the Nuggets simply didn’t have the proper depth to endure in such a long... Read more

2009/10 Review: The Utah Jazz had another solid season last year and once again Jerry Sloan showed how good he is managing a basketball team by winning 53 games in the regular season and “upsetting” the Nuggets in the playoffs before being swept by the Los Angeles Lakers. It was another slow start of the season, as the Jazz were only 18-16 in early January, but then they cruise past all the way finishing... Read more

2009/10 Review: The last year of the Kevin Pritchard’s reign in Portland was a successful season if you think about it, but the Trailblazers once again failed to fulfill their potential by not being able to put together a healthy season. Nicolas Batum didn’t start playing until late in December; Greg Oden went down in November with a season ending injury; Joel Przybilla went down in mid November, while... Read more

2009/10 Review: Not a long time ago, the Oklahoma City Thunder had started their first season in Oklahoma City with a 4-29 start and finished the season 2008-09 with the fourth worst record in the league! To think that, in just one season, they would be able to put a bold scare into the Lakers in the Playoffs is just formidable and quite surprising! No, they didn’t add any superstar player in the free agency... Read more

2009/10 Review: The Minnesota Timberwolves have been a bizarre franchise in the last years and for this season, they carry the not likable label of being the worst NBA team in the last 3 seasons! During this span, the Wolves won 22, 24 and 15 games for a terrifying winning mark of just 24.7%! General Manager David Kahn has been the main responsible for some questionable at best decisions as of late and it... Read more

2009/10 Review: In 2008-09 the Orlando Magic went to the NBA Finals just to lose in 5 games against the Los Angeles Lakers, so the expectations were pretty high for last season. In the offseason, they decided to not give a contract extension to Hedo Turkoglu and got involved in a trade with the Nets receiving Vince Carter and Ryan Anderson. The Magic gave up of one of their biggest mismatch advantages with... Read more

2009/10 Review: The final year of the Mike Woodson’s reign in Atlanta proved to be another solid and consistent season, but ended in an ugly fashion note at the ends of the Orlando Magic in the second round of the playoffs. Still the Atlanta Hawks improvement through the last years can’t be dissociated from the fact that the rebuilding process has started with the hiring of Woodson. Here are the regular... Read more

2009/10 Review: It’s almost irrelevant to talk about the Heat’s last season because there won’t be any sign of continuity between last season’s version and the current powerhouse that the Heat have transformed into during the offseason. Nevertheless it is curious to notice that basically the Miami Heat was no more than a Cavaliers’ poor version in the last 2 years, as they overachieved during the regular... Read more

2009/10 Review: With almost 70 years, Larry Brown showed once again that he is still one of the best head coaches in the league by leading the Bobcats to the first playoff appearance in franchise history. His signature was (as usually) a fierce defensive team that was crowed as the best in the league! The Bobcats allowed a league best 93.8 points per game and that was the biggest reason for an exceptional... Read more

2009/10 Review: Last season the Washington Wizards were coming from the second worst season in franchise history, in which they had just won 19 games, but their expectations were high as everybody expected a strong bounce back season for team. Indeed they were one of the most talked teams during the season, but turned out to be for the wrong reasons. The initial plan was pretty simple: they put all the stakes... Read more
