So is this an example of parity or a parody?  If the NBA playoffs started today, all five teams in the Central Division would make the playoffs. The other three teams are Miami of the Southeast, New Jersey and Philadelphia from the Atlantic.  The team that has been disappointing so far has been the Washington Wizards, who were the #4 seed in last year’s playoffs.  Gilbert Arenas is having another tremendous year, but lost their other star player Larry Hughes to free agency and bolted to the Cleveland Cavs.  The Wizards tried to offset the loss by trading (dumping) Kwame Brown to the Los Angeles Lakers for swingman Caron Butler, but it still hasn’t been enough to spark their play of a year ago.  Fans in D.C. are hoping their Wizards can work up their sorcery again.
