A look around the league and the web that covers it. It’s
also important to note that the rotation order and starting nods aren’t
always listed in order of importance. That’s for you, dear reader, to
figure out.

C: Basketball Prospectus. A look at what Jordan’s stats could have looked like had he not retired twice.
PF: Dime. Who was better: Reggie Miller or Drexler? (I’ll take Glide, he was the more complete player.)
SF: Eight Points, Nine Seconds. Can the Pacers skip having to play 3rd quarter basketball this season?
SG: Slippery When Nets. Today’s random Nets’ crap: Marbury, Van Horn and T.J. Kidd bobbleheads.
PG: Celtics Hub. The track record for ageing shootin’ guards doesn’t bode well for a Ray Allen (notes) extension.
6th: NBA FanHouse. Don Nelson knows better than to strip Stephen Jackson (notes) of his captaincy.
7th: First Cuts. "MaZe" plays some "NBA 2K10" with the ‘09 NBA Rookie of the Year, Derrick Rose (notes).
8th: The No-Look Pass. When did Jordan Farmar (notes) suddenly become a no-talent hack?
9th: The Life. "No disrespect intended," writes Paul Shirley, "but The Beatles just don’t hold up."
10th: The Baseline. Assuming free agency isn’t an issue, Dwyane Wade (notes) said he’s playing in 2010 for Team USA — as long as everyone else is, too.
