Re: HoopsHype Team Rankings - 8/30

The reason people will be so wrong in evaluting the Cs is that they don't 
give credit for adding a four year senior in Banks to a team that desperately 
needed a point guard and team depth. Yet, they assume that Detroit will has 
improved THIS season with the addition of their 17 year old rookie, who likely 
won't contribute much this year....

 14. Boston Celtics Another lost summer for the Celtics. They will once
 again be a two-man show next season.
 13. Orlando Magic Orlando is still thin at the point guard and center
 spots, but there is enough talent in the team to be optimistic about
 this season.
 12. Indiana Pacers Rick Carlisle took a team with less talent than this
 one to the Eastern Conference Finals last season.
 11. Philadelphia 76ers Glenn Robinson is the latest of many candidates
 to take offensive burden off Iverson. The best of them all, by the way.
 10. Houston Rockets With Jeff Van Gundy in Houston, Yao Ming will get
 more touches. And that's good news for the Rockets.
 9. Detroit Pistons Joe Dumars continues to stockpile talent in Detroit.
 The Pistons should really give the Nets a fight in the East.>
