The link below is to a friend's full review of the West and the top 3 in the East. This guy loves NBA ball as much as me and I respect his opinions a lot. I think it is a good review, I think I would have the Mavs 3rd myself even with the Minni turmoil, but I don't disagree with much else.
Fan Review of the West
I respect this guy and his love of the Rockets so much that I gave him my Hakeem Olajawan signed basketball. By the way he does post here upon occasion.
Enjoy,
