John Michael`s a.k.a. The Ch1cken D1nner`s FREE SPORTS INFORMATION for the 2013-2014 NBA Atlantic Division of the Eastern Conference: New York Knicks Preview My Prediction 67-15 Eastern Conference Champions Mike Woodson my pick to win Coach of the Year now entering his 9th season 8th full season as a head coach and though he has yet to break the .500 mark in wins as a head coach he is coming off of his fourth straight winning season 3 of which were full seasons and currently holds a record of 278-320 which is 46% I believe this will be the year he does become a winning coach. Let us remember that Mike Woodson was an assistant coach for the 2003-2004 Detroit Pistons team that won the NBA Finals behind the best team defense I have ever seen, and if you think for one second that he has forgotten what the great Larry Brown and he were able to accomplish with disciplined team defense you had better dig up some film and take notes. Tim Hardaway Jr. the 6´6 SG selected 24th overall out of Michigan and son of one of my favorite childhood Warriors Tim Hardaway who was selected 14th overall back in 1989, is my pick to win the 2013-2014 Rookie of the Year. Ron Artest has made his way back to the state he started his basketball career, and he will bring that defensive tenacity that has been a part of his game since his days on the black top in Queens, New York, which he further developed playing his college ball @ St. Johns, and went on to be a dominant force on defense in the NBA winning the NBA Defensive Player of the Year in 2004. His veteran leadership and NBA Championship ring will only make Mike Woodson´s emphasis on the defensive side of the ball more believable. Defense wins Championships folks. Proven Players/Leadership: Carmelo Anthony Tyson Chandler former NBA Champion Amar´e Stoudamire Depth: Raymond Felton J.R. Smith Andrea Bargnani Iman Shumpert Kenyon Martin Cole Aldrich
