THE PROLIFIC PACIFIC
3004 PACIFIC DIVISION OUTLOOK
Vancouver Grizzlies 3003 (64-18)
Starting 5
C: Jerod Kundla
PF: Bill Laimbeer
SF: Bobby Jones
SG: Billy Knight
PG: Don Buse
3004 Outlook:
The Grizzlies were a surprise last season having their first 60 win season and Division Title of 4.0. The newest member of the Pacific division brings back an ever better team in 3004. After a tough loss to LAC in the playoffs they hope to bounce back and make a run for the Western Conference Title and Pacific Division Winner for the 2nd straight year. Early this season the Buse/Jones have been tearing it up and if they can keep that pace they should have one of the better Combos in the Division.
3004 Predicition:
58- 24 2nd Place
Golden State Warriors - 3003 (19-63)
Starting 5
C: Kent Benson
PF: Carlos Rogers
SF: Oscar Profit
SG: Bruce Jenner
PG: John Stockton
3004 Outlook:
The Warriors are doing another great half ass tank job. I'm not sure when Devine will realize he needs shit talent across the board to get a top 3 lotto pick. Rogers was an excelent pick at 1.19 and it looks like Devine is set on keeping him. With him and Stockton i'm not sure what kind of record he is going to have. It looks like Devine needs to tank this year and possibly trade his futures because we all know those could be worth gold and could get some solid talent. I can't wait to see whats next for GS.
3004 Predictions: 23-59 6th Place
Los Angeles Clippers - 3003 (58-24)
Starting 5
C: Elvin Hayes
PF: Artis Gilmore
SF: Magic Johnson
SG: Aaron McKie
PG: Campy Russel
3004 Outlook:
LAC made some moves this offseason trading starting SG Pistol and trading ed for Old Man Blue Big Easy Elvin Hayes. So far Hayes has been playing like it's 3000 while Gilmore has done the same. I dont see those precentages staying but if they could look out. I'm sure LAC will look completely different come Playoff time so who knows what record they will have this year. Dirt has some decisions to make come this off-season with so many players on expiring contracts.
3004 Predicition: 53-29 3rd Place
Los Angeles Lakers 3003 (59-23)
Starting 5
C: Kim Hughes
PF: Bob McAdoo
SF: Julius Erving
SG: Sidney Moncrief
PG: Brian Winters
3004 Outlook:
The Lakers were leading the division until the very last sim but was beat out by the very surprising Vancuv Grizz. Bob and Moncrief are playing really nice thus far this season and lets no mention one of the best SFs Doctor J. Winters with a nice TC in handles and outside give him the nod to be the favorites for the pacific division. Its a tough race this season and should come down to the wire once again. This LAL team puts up outstanding field goal percentages and will be tough to beat out and should be the #1 or #2 seed come playoff team barring injuries.
3004 Predicitions: 62 - 20 1st Place
Phoenix Suns - 3003 (9-73)
Starting 5
C: Sam Bowie
PF: Mathew Irish
SF: Bernard King
SG: Hyram Dorian
PG: Don Russell
3004 Outlook:
The Suns have been tanking very nicely drafting the King Richard i mean Bernard and 1 leg Sam Up a creek with no Bowie. They should be able to tank for a top 5-7 lotto and then sell of his OKC picks for some solid talent. I'm liking what he's doing so far and with him competeing i truly believe the pacific will have the best diviions in the league. We may not be top heavy but we have 5 GMs that know how to build a competitive team. I'm looking forward to seeing what happens towards the end of his tank job.
HORRBLE GM who cares what his outlook is
3004 Predicition: 14-68 7th place
Portland Trailblazers 3003 (52-30)
Starting 5
C: Bill Walton
PF: Elmore Smith
SF: Dan Issel
SG: Ricky Sobers
PG: Johnny High
3004 Outlook:
The Blaze have had the same core for the past few seasons and havn't really met expectations yet. They are still looking for their first playoff series win and it might be time to switch it up. High was a bit disapointing this past TC and not having a PG can mean destruction to those who are borderline 50/60 win team. Its a tough division in the pacific and i'm waiting to see what Duc does if this team doesn't do that much once again come playoff time.
3004 Predicition: 51-31 4th place
Seattle SuperSonics - 3003 (33-49)
Starting 5
C: Robert Parish
PF: Kermit Washington
SF: Larry Demic
SG: Terence Stansbury
PG: Phil Chenier
3004 Outlook:
Seattle is in a boat just floating at this point in the season. They are trying to compete but they really don't have the talent because of their semi-tank in 3003. Parish locked up and thats great and tanking for Stansbury steak was a pretty succesful job. I'm ready to see what's next with Seattle after than bonescratching trade sending Watts out the door without even a game played. The GM that owns the 3004 SEA pick will have a great pick in this deep ass draft coming up.
3004 Predicitions: 42-40 5th Place
