you mentioned Juwan Howard getting minutes. All I'm saying is he never got minutes. That's it.
As far as the post-season is concerned, we have to wait and see. None of us are psychics. It's literally the same team except one of its biggest weaknesses were addressed.
Lebron is only going to get better, and assuming Wade is healthy and a semblance of his old self, noone in the East is stopping them.
Lakers got bigger but if they face a team with mobile bigs that pushes the tempo and can force turnovers, they're going to be in trouble. Let's see how it goes, regardless, it's going to be the best season in a long time imo.
