Man, I'm excited. I hope these guys work hard all season so we can do big things this year. Last season was tough, but as tough as it was we still finished at .500. This season our roster is much improved, and we have guys that are trying to prove themselves in one way or another. Honestly, I'm not sure if we have a big three. Dirk is who he is, a monster. Monta Ellis is going to drop buckets, we know this. What we don't know is who is going to be that consistent third scorer. Marion? Calderon? Vince Carter? Devin Harris? That really will be key for us this season. With the way this team seems to be structured, it might be anyone of those role players that can be that third scorer on any given night. Should be fun to watch. I know most of us were pissed because we were slept on all offseason because we didn't get Dwight Coward, but it's excellent we get to fly under the radar once again. Let them keep sleeping on us, and then get that rude awakening when we embarrass them in the playoffs.
