I was listening to one of my favorite radio shows, The Herd with Colin Cowherd, two days ago and he did a segment where he described all 32 NFL teams in three words.
I thought it was very creative and entertaining so I thought I would give it a try for the NBA:
Atlanta Hawks
Eastern Conference sleeper
Boston Celtics
Watch out Heat
Brooklyn Nets
What could’ve been…(If they could have pulled off the Dwight Howard trade)
Charlottle Bobcats
Worst team again
Chicago Bulls
Need Rose healthy
Cleveland Cavaliers
Almost becoming watchable
Dallas Mavericks
Entirely new roster
Denver Nuggets
Young, exciting, developing
Detroit Pistons
Some promising youth
Golden State Warriors
Will exceed expectations
Houston Rockets
Rookies! Bad signings
Indiana Pacers
Need a star
Los Angeles Clippers
Second in L.A.
Los Angeles Lakers
Western Conference’s Finest
Miami Heat
Improved bench; Repeat
Memphis Grizzlies
Avoid in playoffs
Milwaukee Bucks
Ellis shoots again
Minnesota Timberwolves
The white-skinned wonders
New Orleans Hornets
Very good starters
New York Knicks
Melo = No championship
Oklahoma City Thunder
Top three team
Orlando Magic
Bottom of standings
Philadelphia 76′ers
Will Bynum shine?
Phoenix Suns
Never panned out
Portland Trail Blazers
Aldridge and rookies
Sacramento Kings
College stars; sub-.500
San Antonio Spurs
Chemistry, veterans, coaching
Toronto Raptors
Who’s their star?
Utah Jazz
Jefferson. Who else?
Washington Wizards
J-Wall and J-Craw
