| Well we don't know, five years is an eternity from now. Besides the die hards, five years ago in Boston do you think many of them thought that their team would win a championship this decade? | |

| Agreed with Acleex.
I mean, the Bucks might end up with Durant, Granger, and... let's say Devin Harris for all we know.
The Magic could have LeBron and the Cavaliers could have Howard.
5 years is a long period, but with these rosters, I would say the Magic [the only oldie we have is Carter, and Lewis will still be raining 3's in 5 years, Howard will be prime and Bass would be a bit past his, Nelson would also be prime]. The Cavs could be, but the only young star they have that can keep it up for another 5 years is LeBron, and we've seen how he can't carry the load on his back. The Nets are a good choice Darko, they might as well have the most potent offense in the NBA, a few years from now. Harris, Lee, Lopez. That will be scary, even if it seems like nothing now. | |

| Nets look promising to me and btw,Cavs need some good scoring back up for LeBron | |

| Agreed. LeBron's play-off stats are good, but that won't happen every game. Let's say they play the Lakers [Bryant, Artest, Odom] or Rockets [Battier, Ariza]. He will get stopped. Other than him, West is capable of 20, but is inconsistant at times, Williams can't score, and O'Neal at his age isn't ready for 30 pt. games. | |

| Well something screams Knicks, Nets, and *gasp* Pacers(and Cavs..) to me.
Just that they seem to all be on the right track, making great moves, have got a plan for the future and also make great draft picks. | |

| The Cavs have an older team than the Magic.
LeBron and Howard set aside...
Nelson and Williams... Nelson is better, Nelson is younger Carter and West... Both are either in their late prime or past it, so you can forget about these two, even if West is younger Lewis and.. uhm.. who? haha. Varajeo?... Lewis will be draining threes in 5 years, still. Sure, he will be slower, yet he'll be much more experienced with the system and a lot smarter Bass and O'Neal 37 years old O'Neal is... haha | |

| Mo is 26, he's still gonna be 31 and in the end years of his prime five years from now
West is 26, he's still gonna be 31 and a rough house defender those days
Varejao probably won't be with us. But we'll have Darnell Jackson and JJ Hickson. Some people actually compared Hickson to a very young Karl Malone(a bit drastic though)
and we can always get a new center. look at bynum, gets so overrated for playing terrible just cuz he plays on the Lakers.
plus we will have Gibson, Jamario Moon(hopefully), and Danny Green | |

| I honestly didn't know Mo and West were that young....
Jackson, Hickson, Gibson, and Moon are nothing, really.
Gibson lost all he had since playing behind two better guards. Moon is a jumper, and that's all. Hickson is not Karl Malone... Jackson is a nobody. | |

| lol@all of that
Gibson has been injured all of the last two seasons. he is CLUTCH.
Moon has improved every year he's played
Hickson, I have already said he isn't Karl Malone, but some people say he is
Jackson took over the back up PF spot for the Cavs when Hickson and Z and Wallace were injured and played great.. he's earned a spot on the roster. he was a way better rookie than Hickson. Easily. | |

| Clutch? Really, CBI? Really? And I'll bet the Cavs will take Mo out of the game to bring the 7th man to make a game-winner Moon has imroved his flashy dunks and blocks. Hickson isn't anything, neither is Jackson. Period. Why would Hickson and Jackson mean anything? What the hell have they done to prove to you that they will be good in the future? | |

| Yes. COUGH2007playoffs,as a rookie, against the number one team in the eastCOUGH
Moon is a scorer. That's something the Cavs need. a scorer. a straight up scorer. the only guy they got to do that is LeBron(dont' say Mo, he's way too inconsistent)
And hIckson is very raw and only 20 and has proven to be a good rebounder and defender. eh just needs to adjust to the NBA
and Jackson was the starting C for the world champion Jayhawks in 2008, and went on to play great basketball in an improved role for the Cavaliers this season
So.. | |

And that's not biased. I really do think the Hawks can do really well, and be among the bst of the best in the East. We solved some of our problems this summer by getting Crawford, Collins, Joe Smith, and Jeff Teague | |

So.. COUGH that was two years ago COUGH he cant shoot worth shit to what he was doing in 2007 COUGH LeBron is the one who scored 25 straight points for the Cavs COUGH Moon isn't a scorer that will get 20 points when LeBron is injured or has an off night. That is West. You know West is a better scorer than Moon. Hell, Pietrus is a better player than Moon. Hickson is Hickson. Let's talk about him when he averaged 3 PPG What makes you think Jackson will be a great player? Seriously CBI, with Hickson and Jackson, you can say the same about any rookie/young player. | |
