Power 5
1. Carson City Caribou--while the Suns-Spurs series has been entertaining...the real joy for me has been watching my keeper (Amare and Manu) announce their arrival as superstars. Could make my 05-06 season pretty interesting!
2. Detroit Pistons--after melting down, you may wonder why they are listed so high. They've found a graceful way for the Larry Brown era to disappear. Larry may be able to coach, but he makes terrible player personel decisions. Look at how his tinkering killed a competitive Philly team. He was bound to run Dumars out, but now, Detroit keeps the best GM in the league, and avoid Larry stabbing them in the back. (By the way, congrats to Cleveland who just received a man who make terrible player decisons and is sure to run for greener pastures when his mistakes fully surface.)
3. Texas Rangers--the only thing to cool off Jon Garland. Texas is now in control of the AL West and with it's solid bullpen, its arms should survive the hot summer Texas heat.
4. Danica Patrick--got us beyond the "woman in the Indy 500" story by not being a bitter feminist, but rather remaining a lady. She just let her driving do the talking. (as a side note: do you realize dave letterman was a co-owner of her racing team? what doesn't this woman have?)
5. Elgin Baylor, Chris Mullin, Isiah Thomas, whoever's been running the Hawks since Dominique retired--with Larry jumping to the Cavs, they will now have to try even harder to be the worst gm in the league. (At this point, a four year lockout may be the only way to see Lebron in a Cavs uniform in 2008).

Dude, I agree. Larry Brown would be a huge mistake for the Cavs.
I already hate our new owner, Dan Gilbert. Ruined a playoff team. Probably a good move to fire Pax, but at least give him the chance - he's the guy who cleared the 18-20mill of cap room the Cavs will now have, why not let him use it?
Signing a coach before getting a GM? Stupid.
I hate being a Cleveland fan.
I'm an Akron fan. So I'll root for Lebron (and Charlie Frye, Mike Vrabel, and Antoine Winfield and Mike Doss and Chris Wells) wherever they play...
