1.) Boston: Nasty backcourt with a solid frontcourt make up the #1 team, but they don't have much depth. The starting 5 score 90 of the team's 101ppg, which is good if they want to win a championship. They play great defense and rebound extremely well.
1.) Portland: They're starting to slip. They still play solid defense and offense in spite of their recent slid. Ford is doing a great job running the offense and is a good choice for 1st team pg. The front court is playing exceptionally well especially Oden and Gay.
3.) Utah: Extremely potent offense and the fact that outscore opponents by 10ppg is why they r going to the Western conference finals. As a team they all hustle after rebounds including their backup center. They've got 4 reliable scorers and Williams is nasty as a pg.
4.) Memphis: They definitely have offense and rebounding. They've got great size in their front court and they have no weaknesses in their starting 5.
5.) Cleveland: Their only weakness is in their pg play. They've got a powerful tandem of big men. Joe Johnson is shooting lights out for 3 and doing an incredible job of scoring. They might be able to make it to the chip this year, if their big men can control the paint.
6.) Phoenix: 1 of the deepest teams in the top 10. Both big men avg double doubles and Felton is doing an excellent job of distributing the ball. With the money they pay for salaries, they better perform well in the playoffs.
7.) Orlando: Solid defensive center. Great all around versatile pf along with 2 other very good scorers. Their main weakness is finding a true pg as VC is their leading assist man.
8.) LA Clippers: Solid all around team with decent depth. They don't play much defense and they only outscore opponents by 3ppg. They also turn the ball over a lot more than other teams.
9.) Houston: Same problem as with Clippers, where they only outscore opponents by 3.6ppg. They also don't have much depth.
10.) Minnesota: Good front court with a decent, young back court. Their opponents actually outscore Minny, which is not good for a playoff team. They do a good job of distributing the ball, but they turn the ball over a lot too.
11.) New Orleans: What a backcourt: can Paul get any better? West is an excellent 6th man on a team with decent depth. They have a decent big man and as a team they do a decent job of rebounding.
12.) Philadelphia: No offense, good defense. They're terrible at rebounding, but they do a good job at not turning the ball over a lot.
13.) San Antonio: Eh, decent offense and decent defense can't c them getting past the 1st round let alone get a win in the post season.
14.) Washington: My sleeper, cause they're getting hot at the right time. Decent depth with a solid starting 5. Randolph is a monster inside. They don't turn the ball over a lot, but they don't get a lot of assists.
15.) Detroit: Terrible offense, with decent defense. They've got a couple good starters such as Lee, barbosa, and singletary. They've got a terrible assist-turnover ratio.
16.) Sacremento: Awful defense, decent offense. Almost as many turnover's as assists. They only good thing they have going is they're extremely young.
17.) Indiana: Awful offense, only the Heat r worse. They do have a good defense. They have no depth and a few young players.
