... are 15-20, five games out of first place and in fifth place. What the HELL happened? I mean, I don't usually start to pay attention until the end of football season (who does), but I thought they were supposed to be good.
At least my backup team the Pacers are doing reasonably well.
But whose got the best winning percentage in the league? The Lakers. MAN do I hate the Lakers.
Ah, yes, the Sixers. I went to Game 3 of the Pacers-76ers series last year, which we lost. To see the Sixers getting smacked around now is immensely gratifying. Muhahahahaha...
I agree with you, by the way. I hate the Lakers, too. And for the same reason that you likely do.
2000 Eastern Conference Champions, remember us? We'll make it two in 2002.

From what I read in the Inquirer (not being in the immediate media market anymore), it sounds like the team has no chemistry (with King and Brown having traded or not resigned many of the cogs from last year's team) and Brown/Iverson spat resuming.
On a slight tangent, the Inquirer's beat reporter Ashley McGeachey was on PTI yesterday. I mention this only because I worked with her on the college newspaper at Indiana and I almost didn't recognize her.
So what hapens then if your underdog team suddenly becomes the kick-ass team of the season?
Not sure...My teams never become the kick-ass team of the season. But you gotta understand that the casual fan (for the most part) always wants to see David slay Goliath...
But I have every right to be a Laker hater due to the fact that they took 2 of 3 finals series from my boys back in the 80's. Seeing that Magic hookshot in game 4 of the 87 finals makes me cringe everytime I see it.

I believe John Thompson is the announcer for the TBS/TNT broadcasts of NBA games. And the Jazz haven't done anything to build for the future after the departure of Malone/Stockton.
