Both teams will be somewhere in the 5-8 seed range.

I'm going to give the Nets the edge though cuz there's no way that the Knicks stay healthy all year. Shumpert is already out a good chunk of the year, and Amare will undoubtedly have a long injury also.

The Nets are just way deeper and younger. MarShon Brooks is one of my favorite players on that team. Lopez and Humphries are a damn good combo in the block, and Gerald Wallace is not that much of a step down from Carmelo. Joe Johnson can score in his sleep, and obviously Deron Williams is a better point guard than any PG on the Knicks.

The Nets are a damn good team even without the Howard deal going through. Don't be surprised if they're the 3rd seed behind Boston and Miami.

Im all aboard the Nets bandwagon... They need to play defense tho.

I don't know what the Knicks are REALLY doing to be honest with you. While they took the interim tag off head coach Mike Woodson, the team they have in New York still appears very uneven & ego-driven. It's now Carmelo Anthony's team, and I hope he's happy. The Knicks probably will be good enough to make the NBA Playoffs in the awful Eastern Conference, but I think the Nets have more upside now that they're Brooklyn-bound, even without Dwight Howard in the middle.

Sometimes I feel like I don't have a partner
Sometimes I feel like my only friend
Is the city I live in, is beautiful Brooklyn
Long as I live here believe I'm on fire hey
Cuz it's the B-the-R-the-O-the-O-K
L-Y-N is the place where I stay
The B-the-R-the-O-the-O-K
Best in the world and all USA
It's the B-to-the-R-the-O-the-O-K
L-Y-N is the place where I stay
The B-to-the-R-the-O-the-O-K
Place where I rest is on my born day
Bust it, sometimes I sit back and just reflect
Watch the world go by and my thought connect
I think about the time past and the time to come
Reminesce on Bed-Stuy when I was pride and young
I used to try and come, to the neighborhood function
Throw on my Izod, say a little something
When I was just a youngin, before the days of thuggin
How me and Charlie Chims (aiyyo what?) I'm only buggin
Fast forward, Nine-Now I gotta team my seed
I must proceed at God's speed to perform my deed
Livin the now space and time, round the nine to five
For as long as I'm alive, paw I got to strive
I ain't sittin roadside, that ain't harder to plan
I'm out here for my fam doin all that I can
I love my city, sweet and gritty in land to outskirts
Nickname Bucktown cuz we grown to outburst
Philosophy redefine us, touch mines I touch back
Walk the streets like a sweet and get beat like drum tracks
Catch no shakes over jakes (boomp-boomp!) we bust back
Bring the marty to your face wit no place to run back
I'm from the slums that created the bass that thump back
This ain't a game clown, play ya James Brown and jump back
What you want, Jack? Young cats stash they jums at
Draw they guns back, momma screams where she sons at
Tryin to hunt that, recurring dream of high stakes
The fourth largest, first artist, Brooklyn is the place
Settled by the judge many years ago
Three billion strong and here we go
