what are your expectations for your team? how far do you hope to make it?
personally, with my record right now, i honestly feel like im a lock for the playoffs. i surpassed major injuries to my best player, ak47, and still am playing really well. i plan on being #2 seed when this is all said and done, and anything less than eastern conference finals and i will be very dissapointed, and i don't feel like the finals are completely out of reach, I have very much competition though.

my expectations are very high. top 3 seed, actually top 2. i hope for a championship, i think every one does, and i do believe it is within my grasp. i consider myself a top 3 team in the league

Well, I feel like I have the right players to make a run at the tittle. Anything short of that would be dissapointing. My team has played well in big games this year and I think we have a good shot of representing the Eastern Conference in the Finals.

anything short of the finals will be a dissapointment...i feel that the west is down to two teams...myself and SA. I think that if it did come down to me and SA it would be a 50/50 type of series. either team could win...there is no clear cut favorite.

I really hope to win it all. If I make it past the second round, I have no worries about making it to the finals. See, the top 2 teams in the west, I feel, are me and Dallas. We are in the same division, so we would end up being the 1 and 4th seed, and that means if we both win in the first round, we meet in the second.

i was hoping more people would reply to this. another question then, what are you going to do to your team if you dont win it all this year? ill be upset, and i might try to stick with my core and build a better supporting cast around them and give them another chance, rather than trading everyone away.

My expectations were much higher for my team coming into the season. I thought with Wade and Shaq I was a lock to be a top 3 seed. I knew Detroit was good, but I underestimated New Jersey and Orlando badly. Wade's averages weren't very good for a player with a 91 rating, so I figure maybe it was time to trade him. I think the make up of my team was bad, and that is why I've been the 5th or 6th best team in the East. I think now my team is better suited to play better basketball. I now have Parker for offense, Sprewell for offense and a little bit of D, Prince for Defense and a little bit of O, Marting for Defense and boards, and Shaq to carry my team. I'm eager to see what my new team can do.

Why does everyone always have to call Toronto out like that, so what if his english writing isn't the best.

my expectations are very low..but i expect alot of cap and some very good players to get in the offseason. not going to name them but you know what i mean. i am trying to build my team around JR smith. i have houstons pick which i hope to get a PF or a C maybe a PG. but overall, i expect to have 1-2 or 3 worst record. i think my team works better with worse players. i had a 9-2 start, with basically nobody. and now i am like 15 and 34 or something. i am not sure. but nothing is expected from my team. but next year, i hope to make the playoffs. serious changes will be made during the offseason.

I wanna make the playoffs possibly after the ugliest start out of all the teams in the league. Making the playoffs from a brutal start is certainly an upgrade.
As far as the offseason goes, I'm not looking to make any big movements unless it can really help my team.

in the offseason i plan to sign a center to help my team, and thats really it. i have my mle to work with and lle and only 3 players are free agents, dunleavy, ratliff, and person. i plan to make a trade involving pollard for a better big man, and possibly trade for a better backup pg but there will be no big changes to my team, i feel i can win the championship
