I agree, I felt that the Griz would be way better than they were last year, and for some reason they can't get it together. They have the talent, Gooden, Battier, Williams, Gasol, they just need some leadership. What you also have to understand is that they're a young team. Gasol is in his sophomore season as is Battier, and Gooden is rookie. I'm disappointed in their performance, but I hope Hubie can teach them some fundamentals so that in maybe 3 or 4 years, they can be a playoff team!

I also agree with badguytony, I felt that the Pistons would have lost too much in Stackhouse, but surprisingly they haven't. I commend them for their efforts, but the Pacers are right behind them, and that's who I'm going for in that division!
