Erine Johnson: Good evening ladies and gentlemen and welcome to the TNT set. Charles Barkley, Kenny "The Jet" Smith and me Erine Johnson in our Atlanta Studios. It's been a great NBA season so far, but man the Southeast Division is having an arms race.
Kenny: If you look at this division it's really interesting to see how it looked a year ago and everything in between. Atlanta was the big gun by a lot, Charlotte made the playoffs and were a decent east team, Washington sunk into the playoffs but they really weren't talented and it was more the East is weak. Miami and Orlando were rebuilding. Then the Miami GM turns them around, the Hawks GM leaves and they lose Childress and Smith, Orlando gets better, Charlotte makes some future moves, and Washington is just left in the dust. Then Atlanta gets better again, and now Washington is good again.
Charles: First of all Kenny I agree, this division is so deep 1 through 5. All 5 GM know what there doing, and it's like a war. Miami usually starts it and will make a trade, then Atlanta says "we have to get better" so they make a trade. Charlotte I think has done a semi rebulid, they will make the playoffs but there not there yet I don't think but there close. Washington is just like "I suck I have to get better" and he really really has gotten better. Orlando is the quiet one but hey they have a good young team with Parker leading them.
Erine Johnson: So do we have a pick to win the division, I think I'll go with Miami who is the obvious pick with Lebron and Gasol.
Kenny: You know, Miami is good but I am going to take the Hawks. There so balanced, now if Miami does get Camby then maybe but for now I like the Hawks.
Charles: You know what, I'm gonna take the Washington Wizards....let it rain from 3 on them hoes!
Erine Johnson: Should be fun to watch, keep watching TNT to see the drama unfold!
