Don't have high hopes for my squad...it's going to take some time. I'm hoping Outlaw could develop a better Outside in TC and run an Outside focus with Mo Williams/Martin/Outlaw. Who knows, could be lethal.

Waiting on Noah to finally get something going, especially after a camp to get his strength up and his D to A-. As for the rest, looking forward to see Durant after TC. I expect some results from him. Hopefully Foye and Wagner improve handles and scoring, respectively, and Aldridge becomes a bit dirtier. Odom staying the same would be sick.

I'm curious to see how teams react after the TC when and if certain players don't develop like they hope, I fall in the category for sure.

I'm just hoping for my team to stand pat in TC. If everyone stays the same I think this team can make the playoffs. I doubt we can make it far without wade but one thing is for sure: our depth will be wonderful this year if the injury bug hits. The bucks are the team to beat, so hopefully we end up matching up well. Actually, on second though, I hope swift becomes a better rebounder, and ariza gets a solid jumper. High hopes in that regard though hehe

Looking for Thaddeus to prove hes worth the price I paid for him last season. I also hope Nick Young and Kevin Love show the potential I think they have.

A lot of questions with all the new faces in the lineup with the only constant being Blatche. Danillo is right now the starter at SF so he has to take a step forward in TC/camp, also hoping from good things from Blatch/Hibbert/Lou Williams. Kobe will carry the scoring load but after that idk how much conventional options I have to score.

I wouldn't worry about durant. What is he, 19? 20 now. Oh noes! Granted, had Durant been the number one option on a shitty team, he probably would have had 20 a game. However, I had a few excellent options that it probably off-set Durant's ability.

Its my CY and I need to win and despite my lack of depth currently I like my starting 5. Kleiza to many may not be a starter but he has done very well averaging close to 18ppg and 8 reb. He should only get better. The play of Felton needs to improve over TC as he is not the premier passing PG he should be. If I cant move Peja he may be my super sub ala Lamar Odom. I need to find some solid backups via FA. I have a strong feeling that the playoffs are in my sights.

Hopefully Hawes gets some inside scoring, and some rebounding. Really hope Speights gets some defense to! Also have some hopes for Rush, Telfair.

I look at Duncan-KG-T-Mac and just wonder how FBB will screw over Len this year.

Inquiring minds want to know No. I have Murphy at PF now. Peja will simply be a backup, but only if I dont find a PF bench guy via FA. Peja doesnt have much rebounding but can still score a good amount.

A couple teams I'll be watching:
- Blazers who have a shit-ton of young talent that could boom or bust. For some reason I think Sun Yue has a nice TC, but feel Torres has hit his plateau (even if he has, it's a nice plateau). Beasley should break out.
- Grizzlies have almost no talent around Granger, so he should explode in TC (Just a belief I have, the less talent around your star, the better he fills out)

I have a feeling Granger already exploded.

Yue is meh, more hoping Conley and Beasley get better.
