Excited for the new NBA season? The draft brought it's share of surprises from selection No. 1, and Steven A. Smith's meltdown was must see TV! Summer League and Pro-Am's were surprisingly ill! Superhero team ups. More please! Number 1, Paulo already got a target on his back, but shouts to the kid for being willing to compete with everyone!

Damn was that an entertaining run.
Biggest Reach: Maryland Terrapins at #11. Look – I love this team! They defeated Indiana in the finals (after Indy took out the perennially-hated Duke along the way to the Final Four). I thought Chris Wilcox (aka, Weezy) was gonna be this millennium’s Shawn Kemp! Juan Dixon was clutch in the tourney (and drafted by the Raps along w/ Lonny Baxter!) But those jerseys?
