With the NBA trading deadline over, I've put together a top 10 regarding title contenders...
1. Los Angeles Lakers
The world's best player now has the teammates around him to win a title without the Diesel. Will his pinky prevent that?
2. San Antonio Spurs
The defending NBA champions haven't reached top form as of yet but with spring around the corner and a point guard returning, look for that to change. Will Tony Parker be 100 percent when he returns?
3. Boston Celtics
The NBA's winningest squad has been dynamite all season and now the MVP candidate returns. Will they run out of gas too early?
4. Detroit Pistons
Looking like the best Pistons team since 2004. Will Flip handle the playoffs correctly?
5. Phoenix Suns
Amare Stoudemire is going to benefit from Shaq quite a bit. Will the Big Fella get in shape to run up the court through the playoffs?
6. Cleveland Cavaliers
Adding Big Ben makes them better defensively, adding Wally makes them better offensively and then they also some guy named LeBron. Will the team mesh in time?
7. New Orleans
With Chris Paul, anything is possible. Will they be serious come playoff time?
8. Denver Nuggets
A team being forgotten in the crazy good Western Conference. Will they get a playoff series win this year?
9. Dallas Mavericks
Jason Kidd returns while half the team departs in the same deal. Will Kidd make them a tougher team come playoff time?
10. Utah Jazz
Jerry Sloane can coach anyone. Will this hot streak ever end?
We're going to send you the most entertaining NBA articles, videos, and podcasts from around the web.
