Championship or Bust?

What're your expectations for the Nets? Will this season be a failure if they don't win a ring given the additions they've made?

They should be contending for a championship this season and next. The fact that AK47 has ties to Deron Williams already will help him slide in and contribute right away, plus he will be a key player off the bench. Also Pierce and Garnett have chemistry. So the entire team just needs to gel, and they should have as good as chance as any of the top teams in the East to come out and represent in the Finals. It's going to be a good NBA season.

If the major cogs are all healthy come playoff time, anything that isn't a title will be a disappointment. Theoretically, they should be the deepest team in the league with enough firepower to play with anyone on the schedule. If they go seven with Miami and wind up losing, I'd have a hard time calling it a full-blown failure, however.

This is just about how I feel. Granted, this is all still on paper. They could turn out being a horrible fit once they get out on the floor together.
