Start the year 2-0 by beating the Rockets and the defending champion Pistons. I know its early, but this team has the talent to make some noise in the East.

>_<
Can't. take. Canadians. any. longer.
I'm sorry, but I've had ENOUGH today. First, I get a rude prank call from Alberta that asked if I shaved my anus regularly. Then, Steve Nash drops like 10 dimes on the Sixers, followed by the inter-division rival Raptors going 2-0.
No offense to you Mvick, of course. It's just been a stressful day.

Your sixers will be fine, should take home court in round 1 at least, but seriously, I think everyone has underestimated the Suns. there good even for a team in the west.

Very true, they were my sleeper pick to steal their division during the preseason. Problem with the Sixers is, they have that lopsided defensive stance right now with the low-box set. When you have AI and Iggy on the perimeter defending Nash and JJ, they can pass it in to post-up royality such as Amare, who in turn kicks it back out for the wide open three. Collapsing in on the post isn't always a great thing, especially when you run that awkward man-zone, expecting your guy to stand his ground, which doesn't happen. That in turn gets you a J popped in your face and the coach screaming his head off at ya.
In a way, the Sixers are lousy at playing sychronized defense. It doesn't help that they have Rich Harter shoving a Beethoven-like defense down their throat.
