Check out what five NBA teams hope to resolve by the end of the season.


It's 2008 - finally - and the NBA is full of side stories that truly ought to become sitcoms. Here are ten New Years resolutions for certain NBA teams:

  1. The New York Knicks need to dump some salary and improve its defense. You couldn't slip a credit card underneath the feet of either Eddy Curry or Zach Randolph while they jumped to full height.
  2. The Chicago Bulls need to find some offensive chemistry. The obvious answer is to land a back-to-the-basket player who can draw double teams, but at what cost does that maneuver make sense?
  3. The Cleveland Cavaliers need to get LeBron James some help. Sadly, they don't have enough trade bait or salary cap room to do that right now.
  4. The Houston Rockets need to get some help for Yao Ming and Tracy McGrady. Despite what some believe, that supporting cast is awful.
  5. The Phoenix Suns need to stop making the same mistakes. For starters, what is Mike D'Antoni thinking by not resting his stars more? Does he really think Grant Hill will be ready for the playoffs at this current pace?
