excuse any mistakes..
#1 - New Jersey Nets
Last Season Record: 54-28
Key additon: Jared Sullinger
Starting Lineup
Al Jefferson PF 29 6'10'' 271 A- C- C A A- C
Jared Sullinger PF 23 6'9'' 265 B+ D D C+ B B
Carmelo Anthony SF 30 6'8'' 240 A- A- C B+ B- D
Caron Butler SG 34 6'7'' 228 B+ A- C- B- C D
Chris Paul PG 29 6'0'' 185 A- B A+ C+ D+ C
Outlook: The Nets made a very strong run to the Eastern Conference finals last season. With Chris Paul being healthy they look to take the next step and make it back to the BBS Finals this upcoming season. Chris Paul and Carmelo Anthony are arguably the best combo in the league, Al Jefferson provides much needed size up front and Caron Butler fit right in after being acquried at the trade deadline last season. The The Nets are a little thin up front but their high octane offense should make up for it.
Projected Record: 60-22, 1st Atlantic
#2 New York Knicks
Last Season Record: 45-37
Key addition: Al Horford
Starting Lineup
Al Horford C 28 6'10'' 248 B C C- A B+ C
Josh Smith PF 28 6'9'' 244 B+ C+ B- A- B+ C
Tayshaun Prince SF 34 6'10'' 215 B+ C+ B A- C- C
Sebastian Telfair PG 29 6'0'' 172 C+ B- A B+ D C
Outlook: Knicks fans are really optismistic about the upcoming season. Sergio Rodriguez had a breakout season last year and should be even better this season. I really like what Skillz did upfront by adding Josh Smith and Al Horford. If the Knicks can somehow move Omar Cook's contract for some solid bench depth I could see them being a top 4 team out East.
Projected Record: 52-30, 2nd Atlantic
#3 Washington Wizards
Last Season Record: 46-36
Key addition: Trey Thompkins improving his rebounding and defense.
Starting Lineup
David West C 33 6'10'' 246 B+ C D- B- B+ C
Trey Thompkins C 24 6'10'' 248 B C C B+ A- C
Marvin Williams SF 28 6'9'' 236 B B- C- A- C+ C
James Harden SG 25 6'5'' 224 B A- C+ B- C- C
Rajon Rondo PG 28 6'1'' 180 B B- A+ A C C
Outlook: The Wizards are looking to rebuild this season. I really don't understand why...This is Andrew's first winning team in BBS and he wants to rebuild after one winning season...No wonder why I think he's a horrible GM. Anyways The Wizards could win 50 games this season if they keep everything in place.
Projected Record: 49-33, 3rd Atlantic
#4 Philaedlphia 76ers
Last Season Record: 28-54
Key addition: Ryan Harrow
Starting Lineup
Enes Kanter C 22 6'10'' 245 B C D+ B+ A- B
Quincy Miller SF 21 6'10'' 225 B C A- C+ B- A
Tyreke Evans PG 25 6'6'' 223 A- B+ B+ B- C B
Maalik Wayns PG 23 6'1'' 190 B+ B- B B+ D B
Ryan Harrow PG 22 5'11'' 165 C+ B B B C- A
Outlook: We need a new sixers GM! Thenorth hasn't done shit since he arrived in bbs. He's not active at all. The Sixers have decent young talent but they need a GM that will actually RC the players and make moves to improve the franchise. If Spencer hires a good GM to run Philly the Sixers could fight for a late playoff spot out East.
Projected Record: 34-48, 4th Atlantic
#5 Orlando Magic
Last Season Record: 27-55
Key addition: Joel Pryzbilla
Starting Lineup
Rick Rickert C 31 6'11'' 225 C+ C+ C B+ C+ D
Carl Landry PF 31 6'9'' 254 B+ C D+ B- B D
Thabo Sefolosha SF 30 6'5'' 222 B- B B A C B
Russell Westbrook SG 25 6'3'' 196 A- B A- C+ C B
Brandon Knight PG 23 6'3'' 194 B- A- B+ A- C B
Outlook: Brandon Knight had a GREAT Training Camp hopefully he can translate it to on the court success. I really hate the Magic's roster. Manas had a horrible TC and he doesn't have his pick this season. Barring and signicant changes the Magic will be a lotto team.
Projected Record: 25-57, 5th Atlantic
#6 Miami Heat
Last Season Record: 16-66
Key Addition: Dwight Howard
Starting Lineup
Dwight Howard C 28 6'11'' 255 A- D+ C A+ A+ C
Rashad McCants SG 30 6'4'' 211 A- A- C B+ C- D
Outlook: Currently the Heat are a 2 man team that will be filled with scrubs once FA opens up. McCants will probably be dealt before the season starts.
Projected Record: 20-62 6th Atlantic
#7 Boston Celtics
Last Season Record: 37-45
Key addition: Tony Mitchell
Starting Lineup
Yao Ming C 34 7'6'' 313 C+ C D- A- B- D
Greg Monroe PF 24 6'10'' 256 B C- B- B B+ B
Nicolas Batum SF 25 6'8'' 209 B- B+ C- A C C
John Jenkins SG 22 6'5'' 190 C A C- B D B
Tyshawn Taylor PG 24 6'3'' 180 B- C B- A C A
Outlook: Jeff should finally be able to tank properly this season. This team is horrible. I expect Greg Monroe to have a great season for Boston. Tony Mitchell had a great training camp and could crack the starting lineup before the season ends.
Projected Record: 15-67
