Vince Carter .. basically a Stephon Marbury type that can dunk.. cannot defend to save his life.. horrible contract
Marcin Gortat.. overpaid white guy that will hardly see the floor with D12 ahead of him
Brandon Bass.. decent big but nothing special
Matt Barnes.. another one-dimensional forward that doesn't defend

I'd say you're closer to the Suns and Warriors teams of the past 3-5 years over a title contender. Boston, when healthy, is a better team. The Lakers are still a better team. And I think the Cavs are on your level as well.

What about Vince Carter, CJ Watson, Brandon Bass, and Ryan Anderson?

Magic have had a solid off-season..

lol @ mentioning Ryan Anderson and CJ Watson as solid pickups

Vince Carter is a huge risk..

On NBA2k10 this is a nasty team, in real life.. I don't think Orlando has improved a whole lot from this past season.

So they were supposed to let Turk go and do nothing to replace him? Vince is still a great player when he wants to be.. and he'll obviously be inspired when his team is a legit contender for the Ship.

Is basketball only about household names for you? CJ Watson is a solid role-player. He put up some huge games in GS last year and is a dangerous scoring point guard off the bench. Also going to bring some energy and great help defense. Anderson is one year removed from Cal and actually played decent in his rookie year. He can rebound, hit the 3's, chip in with a steal and a block here and there.. hes like Troy Murphy-lite. Perfect fit in that system cause he can spread the floor.

Matt Barnes doesnt defend? Are you mental? He is known for his defense ability.

[Point Blank]

Nice pickup for them.

[red33]

Orlando is on par with boston now.

Hasselbeck is right about last season, he was a terrible defender for the Suns. Supposedly... he was hindered by injuries and he was playing through them at the end of the season. Take that for what its worth.

This coming from a guy who watched every single game of the Suns last season. Maybe he was a different defender in Golden St but he was not a great defender for Phoenix, not even close.

ya. I love texas, i have as long as i can remember.
i also like the magic, i have since they drafted dwight howard
andi have always loved the cavs because im from Ohio

Now you just need a reason to like Boston and you are set for the Eastern Confrence
