Guy can score. But I'm not sure I want him on my team.

Hmm, not sure he'll put them over the top imo.

At least he isn't old.

Marbury (last year) wasn't/isn't the player Robinson is. I'm not saying Robinson makes them the favorite or anything, but c'mon

My comment was more towards devil saying "at least he isn't old"

I think this could be a decent move for them. But it doesn't get them past the Cavs or really the Magic.

Celtics are already the favorite. They are clearly the team to beat in the East.

1. Cavs, 32 wins, 11 losses, .744%

2. Celtics, 27 wins, 12 losses, .692%, you also have to factor in Garnett's injury/injury prone body. But yup, the Celtics are the favorite right now. haha :rolleyes:

They were also the heavy favorite last year according to the "experts".

Cool. But I was responding to a claim that the celtics were "clearly" the favorite in the east this year. In no way was I saying the cavs were going to win the east or even being a favorite = a guarantee. I just refuted a claim with facts.

Once again Skyhook with irrelevant, useless information just to get in a Cleveland jab.

The Celtics have the Cavs number. Kind of like when Jordan struggled with the Pistons for a few years. The Cavs can get it done this year but until it finally happens, Celtics are my picks (If healthy).

I wouldn't say the Celtics have the Cavs number just b/c they beat them by single digits on the first game of the season. The Cavs were 2-2 against Boston last year, including a 31 and 15 point wins. They took Boston to 7 games the year before.

Okay, but that doesn't make them the clear favorite in the East. That just makes it your opinion.
