@ Point Guard In theory the Point Guard position is the weakest link of the Los Angeles Lakers. Derek Fisher brings the championship pedigree over Alston but despite his experience Fisher can't match lightning-quick point guards. Rockets' PG Aaron Brooks scored 19, 34 and 26 points in the Rockets wins while shooting 27-47 from the field (51% clip). That's the biggest explanation of why PG Jameer Nelson enjoyed... Read more

The Bobcats will start from scratch for the third season in a row, as they have another new coach for this season. After Bernie Bickerstaff in 2006 and Sam Vincent in 2007, it's time for the experienced coach Larry Brown to take over in Charlotte. Sam Vincent won't surely be missed, as he took the team when the Bobcats were coming from their best season ever (33 wins) and spent some money in the offseason by bringing... Read more

Utah has barely changed anything on their structure for this season, which makes sense as the Jazz reached the conference final two years ago and last season, they were eliminated by the Lakers in the conference semi finals, so the main question for the team this season is to know if they are good enough to be a contender for the title. If we look to the Western conference, we see that the starting five of the... Read more

Last season, Denver managed to have an excellent end of the regular season, by winning 10 of their last 14 games and reclaiming the 8th and last spot for the postseason in the Western conference, where they ended up being swept by the Lakers. In that series, Denver scored 101.5 ppg, but we all know which was the problem of the Nuggets: No Defense! How can a team fight for the title, if they allow 115 points per game... Read more

Portland's off season last season was lived with euphoria: after all, the team had the rookie of year, Brandon Roy, and the number one choice in the draft: Greg Oden. All of a sudden, all that euphoria disappeared when Oden got injured and missed the whole season and very few expected that the team without him would still reach a .500 record, in a conference where the Warriors with a 48-34 record couldn't reach a...

This season the league has a new franchise: the Thunder. The team which used to be the Sonics won't start from the scratch, but they won't have many expectations for this season, just like they didn't have last season when they were still in Seattle. The reason isn't just the lack of experience the team still lacks, but also let's not forget the Golden State Warriors finished the regular season with a 48-34 record... Read more

Golden State @ Orlando The Warriors are coming from an easy win at Miami and they play today at Orlando, who has been great lately. The Magic are 8-2 in their last 10 games, while the Warriors are 7-3. The line for this game is at -7,5 points for the Magic and after some doubts about winning at home, Orlando is now better in the field, having won their last five games at home. For this game if you like... Read more
