Definitely the year of the wolf...Harris Mayo Battier Stoudemire Gortat Casspi all returning along with the addition of Gerald Wallace. Defense was our only problem and we solved that.

Not a big fan of the division realignment. I know why it was necessary, but the Atlantic is soooo weak. Other than Miami there are no good teams. Brooklyn worsened this offseason, Boston is improved but still rebuilding, and Orlando/Washington/NYK/Harlem are all hot garbage. Miami's going to win 70 in that division.
Now I'm stuck in the Central division, gotta be toughest in the NBA. Chicago, Milwaukee, Philadelphia, Indiana, Toronto, and Atlanta are all playoff teams. Cleveland isn't the worst team ever, and Cincinnati? Well, good luck and godspeed.
Actually, the (likely) two top teams, OKC and Miami, both will have cakewalk schedules in the regular season.

hopefully someone will pick up Washington and move them somewhere. And Boston is about to rebound. We need to make another FA splash somehow but we are on the right track.

I had to realign it to make some kind of sense with where the teams moved, couldn't leave the Royals in the Pacific division and if there ever was a globetrotters team, they would probably be in the Atlantic division. Even if it would be an easy cakewalk one year,divisional competition changes every year, the majority of those teams are still young and could make a push for the playoffs at anytime, eventually the competition will even out. And both of those teams would have an easy time in any division really, they're both 50+ teams bar injury.

Whoops. And I understand why divisions were changed, just noting that the Central is going to be tough this year. Win percentages from last season: Atlantic | 0.389 | (0.350 without Miami) | Central | 0.576 |
| Midwest | 0.524 |
| Pacific | 0.500 | (0.453 without OKC) |
But what can you do, right? Looking forward to the competitiveness of the Central, it's going to be crazy. Potentially 6 playoff teams could come out of here.

Central division is still gonna be strong even with a huge power shift. Bucks & Bulls on decline while Raptors & Cavs could easily make a push for that number 1 Spot
