i think darko is really gonna suprise a lot of people in d’antoni’s system. if he can’t prove something playing for mike d and playing in a contract year, then there really is no hope

i hope galinari can return to health and stay healthy. from what i saw in his brief moments on the court…the kid can definitely play.

what ever happened to deng? a few years back he was the next big thing, sure hasn’t happened years. i wish all these guys (except for vujicic ) luck for the upcoming season.

Sasha was killing teams in the playoffs a few years back, but he went back to his true self last year

Andrea Bargnani
Anthony Randolph
Michael Beasley

Greg Oden – Yes he can be a formidable big man but expectations “were” high for this 7 footer. Oden should be able to take away some minutes away from pryzbilla in order for him to live up to what’s expected of him. knowing that there’s no pressure on his side since he ain’t the face of the franchise (B-Roy of course, followed up by aldridge.)

Yi Jian Lian – after a monster performance in Fiba Asia (which doesn’t count since china always dominates this league) Yi should be able to put up decent numbers to compensate on his demanding (i don’t wanna play for milwaukee) act from the last 2 season. reminds me of that fag ricky rubio. oh wait vince carter’s out, so there should be a lot of shots left.

Paul Milsap – Should prove that he can really start, and is not just one of those players who shine to make their starting PF bad… (wtf, Boozer’s bad as it is… he’s like one of ‘em columbian druglords who have their chesthair out in the open while counting money for duping people for protection money)

Amare Stoudamire – Now that Shaq’s out of the Suns line up, he should be able to prove that he’s the big man that the suns should keep.

Darko Milicic – This Serbian should flourish on D’antoni’s system and pull off a ala David Lee Stats, since he’s young, can run, and rebound for the Knicks who has 7 seconds or less system.

T-Mac – It’s Contract Season, or i’d like to say it as “Play or Pray that you’d still be in the NBA after this” season.

Hamed Haddadi – who the f*ck is this? hahahaha! well, he needs to break out or else DIME wouldn’t publish whateva it is that he says or even Iran wouldn’t give a F*ck! hahahaha!”A Star?” Lol…

Trevor Ariza – with his decision to move to houston, hope he gets that star status he’s been aiming… he won’t be squeezing himself in to Kobe Bryant and Co. as one of their stars, and would have an easier way of establishing himself in Houston as “good” player. with his defense and still improving offense, he should be able to showcase that with him competing for shots with Scola, Brooks and other players in his team. and c’mon be worth the drama you placed with the current champs.

Rudy Gay – should have a breakout season and should put up numbers like brandon roy or else he’s gonna be traded mid-season, he’s about to go to contract year.

Shawn Marion – Just to prove that he can still play, (knowing that he can only exist with a great point guard. and now he has one in jason kidd) and he’s game ain’t about to go out like the Suns were out of the playoff picture in the west.
