This poll is a straight up give away. No doubt Darko will be in the playoffs 1st. He doesn't have to do much either to make them reach to the playoffs. Denver & Cleveland have a year or 2 left till they reach there, but Detriot was just their this year!

Well, Darko is a likely playoff contender...but the poll asks "who would you prefer in the playoffs?"
Kinda a wierd question, but i'd like to see LeBron in the playoffs...it'll be good for his career if he can get all the NBA experience possible.

Yes, i would like to see how Bron will fair in the postseason. It wont happen right now with these rebuilding thing in Cleveland but it might happen at some time. Hopefully he wont be like the only star who will carry the team on his back like T-Mac or something.

That's what I was answering

my bad about the mixed up question what I was tryin to ask was who do you think will help get their team to the playoffs first?

Darko will obviously help his team get to the playoffs since the Pistons are already in the playoff picture. But you know if the Cavaliers make the playoffs the LeBron/MJ comparisons are going to be in full force. LeBron, like Kobe, should be able to make a name for himself under his own name.
That's not a knock on MJ, because a comparison to an accomplished NBA player is always a compliment. But just as Michael Jordan was able to create his own identity, so too should Kobe, LeBron, and everyone else.

i want to see lebron in the play offs,but i dont want cavs to playoffs because i hate cavs-ricky davis(idiot),ilgauskas(ghost).but i dont hate lebron-he is my favourite rookie!
Sun Jul 06, 2003 11:52 pm
It would be nice to see all three of them in the playoffs, but darko and king james have a much better chance since they are in the weaker east i think. And Jason Kidd, Ilgauskas is a legimate decent center so stop your talk, and ricky davis, well he kind of screwed up and they could trade him but oh well, silas is a great coach who will make him listen. And you are posting less but what you are saying hasnt improved a lot, so first think then post?

wow.... dont even get started on Ricky Davis , If (IF) the cavs make the playoffs you can bet that ricky has played a big part in getting them there...
Ilgauskas... Ghost?? Z is one of the last true pivot men in the nba with 17.2ppg and 7.5rpg id hardly say he was a ghost...

yes i hope that cavs trade lebron.cavs is not right team for him.

thats never gonna happen...
the cavs have been reported to be trying to off load D-Miles, but after the season he had the cavs will have a hard job shifting him. I could see the player losing out there could be Ricky Davis, alot of teams will want ricky despite all his little ways so the cavs might cash in on him and let James be the first scoring option.

I have to admit i really liked davis, with his stints as well in charlotte as in miami, and he is a tremendous offensive talent but what he pulled off in that game at cleveland is in my eyes unacceptable, thats just a violation of every unwritten rule in teamplay(are there unwritten rules? 
, but u know what im gettin at), he was traded away from charlotte cuz silas discipline wasnt his cup of tea, well silas is one of the best coaches and that player better starts listening cuz if i was the gm i traded him away right after that game(if it was possible) cuz there is no bigger knock on team chemistry than such a thing, and would it be that bad for lebron to be the first scoring option,it would be a relief not having to take all the offensive pressure but wagner and ilgauskas will have their share of points so it shouldnt be a problem, let him play sf and not pg i say, let him score and develop his shot, give him the chance to become "the next one" and if he doesnt, big deal, at least he tried

Yes we know Darko and the Pistons will make the playoffs, isn't it a bit early to be saying or hoping which of them will take their team to the playoffs? The haven't even played 1 season game yet, nevermind whole 82 games!

I think that Jason Kapono will have a pretty good rookie run and will be a key player in the future of the Cavs. Great back to back 2nd round picks by the Cavs.

In the east anything can happen. Next year we might start seeing new faces in the Playoffs scheme. Nets are going down if Kidd goes somewhere else (maybe not out of the playoffs), Bucks - down, Celtics - down, Heat up if they get Mourning back, Cavs - up (maybe not playoffs but I'd say that's a better team than the Celts). We might see the Raptors getting in a better position as well, Knicks if they are healthy, the East is going to be very competitive among themselves. And yes, Darko is getting to the Playoffs

I just hope Kirk Hinrich makes the playoffs. But who am I kidding?
