After watching some of both teams in the pre-season, these are my two surprise teams. I'll start with Utah.
Utah has a lot of unselfish players, and they will be even better when Arroyo comes back from his little injury. Their best two players, IMO, are Carlos Boozer and Andrei Kirilenko. Both are good on defense, and this team will win games by scoring off of their defensive pressure, and the chemistry by Jerry Sloan. I think this team can make the playoffs easily.
The Suns are going to be a VERY exciting team to watch. They have a lot of shooters, and they will defnitely run the floor. I think even when they have bad shooting nights, they can still win by playing a track-meet type game, just running up and down with Steve Nash at the point. However, I really don't think Shawn Marion will be there long unless he can deal with a little less playing time due to the addition of Quentin Richardson. I think this team can win their division at best, and realistically, but at the least, they will sneka into the playoffs.
