RE: Sick of it already...



Pretty interesting comparisons, I'll add that I'd put money on Boston
being the better team again this year because from training camp
reports, they're just tougherminded and still together on the defensive
philosophy.  Orlando hasn't been intimidating on D since they lost
BigBen , Outlaw, and Atkins.  Their two hyped up tweener forwards can
score, but are soft, and have identical short range games that won't
space the floor for McGrady.  Shammond and Lue are liabilities at both
ends. 

I think you underrated Giricek though.  He's a lot better than EW.  The
first Euro I've seen that plays hungry like an inner city American.
Drives strong, hustles all the time(even last season which was a non
contract year), and is pretty intense/physical on defense.  Plus he has
the typical Croatian shooting touch.

So by my count thats 6 Boston advantages (Walker, Delk, Banks, Jones, 
Baker, Brown), 2 Orlando (Gooden, Giricek) and 4 evens.  Comments 
welcome.
