Mark Heisler's NBA Western Conference preview 馬克黑斯勒的西區前瞻來源: http://0rz.tw/5IgzG 1. Lakers 2008-09 record: 65-17, No. 1 in West. New: Ron Artest. Gone: Trevor Ariza. It's nice when champions get even stronger, not to mention good timing. With rivals regrouping, they won't win the West by 11 games again. I don't even expect them to win 65 again. Ariza fit effortlessly and Artest is Artest, but the key is Andrew Bynum, lost last spring, relocated this fall. If Bynum gets over the hump, they're still the best thing going. 08-09年戰績:65-17，西區第一新入團:阿泰脫團:亞梨莎冠軍隊更強了很nice的，更不用說是在時機很對的時候更強。在對手們也都進化的情況下，今年不會在以11場的勝差拿下第一了，甚至我也不期待他們還可以再贏個65勝，亞梨莎可以輕鬆自在地融入但阿泰還是阿泰，不過關鍵應該還是在去年春天只能在場邊吶喊的霸男，如果他可以突破，湖人仍然是最屌的。 2. Portland 2008-09 record: 54-28, No. 2 (tie). New: Andre Miller, Juwan Howard. Gone: Channing Frye. Like the Lakers, speculation revolves around their new player, Miller, but the real question is their young center. Greg Oden, a bust as a rookie, averaged 14 points and 9.7 rebounds in 22 minutes this preseason. With their own dynamic duo, Brandon Roy and LaMarcus Aldridge, a big move by Oden means a big future, maybe even now. 08-09年戰績:54-28，與馬刺、金塊並列西區第二新入團:安抓˙米勒?、前密西根五虎霍華德脫團:錢寧弗萊跟湖人一樣大家都把焦點注目在新來的那個米勒，但真正的關鍵在於他們的老臉年輕中鋒歐蛋姆，身為一個快黑掉的新秀，在熱身賽短短22分鐘的上場時間裡有著14分9.7籃板的平均，再加上原有的強大二人組，羅伊戰士和阿德里奇。歐蛋姆進步的一小步，都將是拓荒者未來的一大步，甚至是現在。 3. San Antonio 2008-09 record: 54-28, No. 2 (tie). New: Richard Jefferson, Antonio McDyess, Theo Ratliff, Keith Bogans, second-round pick DeJuan Blair. Gone: Bruce Bowen, Fabricio Oberto, Kurt Thomas, Drew Gooden, Ime Udoka. The team that won four titles from 1999 to 2007 limped through the last two seasons before the crowning indignity, last spring's 4-1 first-round loss to Dallas. Missing the player they wanted, Rasheed Wallace, who went to Boston, the Spurs still found long-sought replacements. If they're not The Spurs they are still capable of moving back up, if not all the way to a title, enough to let the Lakers know they're still around. 08-09年戰績:54-28，與拓荒者、金塊並列西區第二新入團:RJ、買個袋子、老鍋神瑞特里夫、柏根斯、第二輪選到的底黃布萊爾脫團:人見人愛天殘腳包叔叔、黑白脫、科科湯瑪士、豬古登、烏度卡這支在1999到2007年奪下四次總冠軍的球隊在過去兩年光環失色了無生氣，上季季後賽第一輪1-4慘敗給死敵小牛。吃不到他們想要的溪蛙，馬刺還在找那個他們一直在找的人。如果他們不是馬刺，他們還是有能力力爭上游的(此句不懂...)就算拿不到冠軍，至少讓湖人知道馬刺還是能夠與之抗衡的。 4. Denver 2008-09 record: 54-28, No. 2 (tie). New: No. 1 pick Ty Lawson, Joey Graham, Arron Afflalo. Gone: Dahntay Jones, Linas Kleiza. No one expected the Nuggets to do what they did . . . and few expect them to do it again. Stability remains an issue with Coach George Karl dangling on the last year of his deal, amid the usual front-office infighting. Nevertheless, with Chauncey Billups chilling out J.R. Smith and Kenyon Martin and helping Carmelo Anthony grow up, they're good too. 08-09年戰績:54-28，與拓荒者、馬刺並列西區第二新入團:第一輪選進的勞森、葛里翰、阿福臘肉脫團:瓊斯、克里莎之前沒有人期待金塊做到他們去年做到的，而現在也還是沒有人期待他們可以再次作到。安定感對於教頭卡爾來說是個很重要的課題，因為他去年的合約還在行政高層的角力中搖擺不定。儘管如此，有著能適時冷卻丁尺、馬丁還有幫助安東尼成長的槍西，他們還是很棒的球隊。 5. Utah 2008-09 record: 48-34, No. 8. New: No. 1 pick Eric Maynor. Gone: No one of note. With Carlos Boozer out 45 games and Deron Williams averaging 9.8 points in November on a bad ankle, they were still on a 50-win pace until finishing 2-7 to fall into the Lakers' lap in the first round last spring. In a surprise, Boozer wasn't traded to unload his salary. With everyone back, they're still young, tough, deep and ready to go back where they belong. 08-09年戰績:48-34，西區第八新入團:第一輪選進的梅諾脫團:沒人離開這個宅宅天堂在布瑟缺賽45場且蝶龍11月因著腳踝傷勢只有平均9.8分的情況下，爵士最後一度還是上看50勝，但因為最後九場只拿了兩勝所以在季後賽掉入了湖人的魔掌。讓人大吃很多驚的是，布瑟沒有被交易出去來擺脫他的合約。(應該是沒人要吧...)在大家都到齊歸隊後，他們有著青春的肉體，他們硬，他們準備好回到那個屬於他們的位置。 6. Dallas 2008-09 record: 50-32, No. 6. New: Shawn Marion. Gone: Devean George Dear guys, keep it close while I think of something. Your pal, Mark Cuban. After a 2-7 start, they finished 48-25 under underrated Coach Rick Carlisle and upended the Spurs in the first round. With Dirk Nowitzki fond of Cuban and looking for reasons to stay, they gave Jason Kidd, 36, a three-year deal and acquired Marion. That should keep them up there, if not too far. 08-09年戰績:50-32，西區第六新入團:香馬力安脫團:蟾蜍哥各位觀眾，5隻ACE，阿不是啦。你們的好朋友，庫班，在小牛以2勝7敗開場，但最後在被低估的教練卡萊爾手下拿到48勝25敗，並在季後賽第一輪放倒了馬刺。在挪威司機表示很尬意庫班且找很多LU說想留下的情況下，庫班給了36歲的基德一筆三年的養老金，而且還得到了相馬茜，喔不，相馬力安。那會讓他們保持在那個位置的，如果不求長久的話啦。 7. Phoenix 2008-09 record: 46-36, No. 9. New: Channing Frye. Gone: Shaquille O'Neal. Sometimes you add by subtraction, as Branch Rickey said, and they did, unloading O'Neal . . . whom they, alone, had thought could fit in the first place. They're back to Suns ball under former Mike D'Antoni assistant Alvin Gentry. Amare Stoudemire's expiring contract may become an issue, but no one could guard Stoudemire and Steve Nash before and it won't be much easier now. 08-09年戰績:46-36，西區第九新入團:錢寧弗萊脫團:俠客維奇就像布蘭奇瑞基說的"有時候你因減少而增加"，也就像是太陽做的，丟掉大歐...那個曾經被認為可以讓他們一飛沖天的人。他們現在前教練戴安東尼的助理教練甘崔帶領之下回到快打炫風的路上了。也許阿罵的到期合約會是個問題，但比較該注意的是如何守住飄髮哥和阿罵勒?以前就守不住了，現在不會比較容易的。 8. New Orleans 2008-09 record: 49-33, No. 7. New: Emeka Okafor, Bobby Brown, Ike Diogu, No. 1 pick Darren Collison, Darius Songaila. Gone: Tyson Chandler, Rasual Butler, Antonio Daniels, Melvin Ely. Comers no longer, they dropped five places in the West. Bumbling owner George Shinn has until 2012 before Chris Paul's deal is up. Okafor will help, but they're still thin and small. Management is already grumbling about 2008 coach of the year Byron Scott, on the last year of his contract with no extension forthcoming, so at least they have a scapegoat ready. 08-09年戰績:49-33，西區第七新入團:前貓王奧卡佛、芭比布朗、狄奧古、第一輪選進的柯林森、桑加拉脫團:錢德勒、巴特勒、丹尼爾斯、伊萊不再有希望，他們在西區退步5名。經常出錯的老闆喬治辛恩還要一直到2012年。奧卡佛會有點幫助，但他們還是又瘦又小。高層已經開始幹訐08年最佳教練史考特了，在沒有延長合約的最後一年，至少代表著一件事，就是他們已經找到代罪羔羊了。 __________________________________分隔線是我_________________________________ 先休息一下翻到預測前八種子好了剩下的自己看看吧~ 或是有人想看的小弟再來獻醜獻醜有問題請多多指教...謝謝 9. Clippers 2008-09 record: 19-63, No. 14. New: No. 1 pick Blake Griffin, Sebastian Telfair, Rasual Butler. Gone: Zach Randolph, Mike Taylor. After three progressively worse seasons, capped by 2008-09's mail-in, there are few, indeed, who think they won't mess this up too. This one will really take some work. With Baron Davis bent on reclaiming his name, two 7-footers andwunderkinder Griffin and Eric Gordon, this almost has to work, whether now or in the future, with or without Davis and/or Mike Dunleavy. 10. Houston 2008-09 record: 53-29, No. 5. New: Trevor Ariza, David Andersen, Pops Mensah-Bonsu. Gone: Ron Artest, Brent Barry. At least they don't have to worry about the health of their Big Two now. Yao Ming is already gone for the season and Tracy McGrady is years beyond making a difference. They're still tough when reduced to their role players, as the Lakers learned in last spring's seven-game series, but it won't do over the long haul. 11. Oklahoma City 2008-09 record: 23-59, No. 13. New: Etan Thomas, Serge Ibaka, No. 1 pick James Harden. Gone: Earl Watson, Chucky Atkins. If this were a 25-and-under league, you'd really like their chances. Kevin Durant, who just turned 21, must now do the hardest thing of all: turn those stats into wins. Russell Westbrook, 20, and Thabo Sefolosha, 25, may be the game's most athletic backcourt, with versatile Jeff Green, 23, alongside Durant. That leaves them one center and another year or two away. 12. Memphis 2008-09 record: 24-58, No. 11 (tie). New: Zach Randolph, Allen Iverson. Gone: Hakim Warrick. They're pitiable no longer. Michael Heisley melted his team down to sell it but, three years later and with no buyers in sight, geared back up, getting Randolph and Iverson to go with promising O.J. Mayo, Rudy Gay and Mike Conley. It would be a bigger surprise if Randolph and Iverson can play together, or with the other guys. But, at least, they can play. 13. Golden State 2008-09 record: 29-53, No. 10. New: GM Larry Riley, No. 1 pick Stephen Curry, Acie Law, Devean George, Mikki Moore. Gone: GM Chris Mullin, Jamal Crawford, Marco Belinelli. Almost gone: Stephen Jackson? Making the Lakers and Clippers look lucid, the Warriors toppled Mullin last season, presumably for sticking up for suspended Monta Ellis, who's still upset. Jackson, their new leader, just turned in his captaincy after getting suspended for saying he wanted to be traded too. Meanwhile, the Big Kahuna, Don Nelson, has bailed on way better situations than this. 14. Sacramento 2008-09 record: 17-65, No. 15. New: Coach Paul Westphal, No. 1 pick Tyreke Evans. Gone: Coaches Reggie Theus and Kenny Natt; Brad Miller. Kurt Rambis turned down the Kings' two-year, $3-million "offer," leaving the cigarette and blindfold, er, job for the personable Westphal. Fortunately or not, they have more talent -- Kevin Martin, prospects Evans, Jason Thompson, Spencer Hawes -- than patience. Theus won peers' admiration, going 38-44 in his debut, then was fired after starting last season 6-18 with Martin out . . . after which they were 11-47. 15. Minnesota 2008-09 record: 24-58, No. 11 (tie). New: CoachKurt Rambis, GM David Kahn, No. 1 pick Jonny Flynn, Ramon Sessions. Gone: Coach/head of basketball operations Kevin McHale, Randy Foye, Mike Miller. This is the team Rambis chose? In a memorable debut, Kahn drafted point guards Ricky Rubio and Flynn at Nos. 5 and 6, before Rubio chose FC Barcelona. Rambis goes from all those Lakers 7-footers to 6-9 Al Jefferson and almost 6-8 Kevin Love up front -- or will when Love returns in a month or two, and assuming Jefferson's sore Achilles is OK. Well, you have to start somewhere. -- 我是馬賽克 ↓ http://0rz.tw/XChKt ▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄ 勇敢前行... -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 163.15.156.145
