Jordan creates a Catch-22 for the Wiz What is the next logical step for the Wizards? They have a group of young guys, some mid-career journeymen, and an aging, but still potent version of the "Greatest Ever." They're also playing .500 ball and selling out games. How do they continue this and also improve as a franchise? |

Five questions to tip off the season Well, here we go again. The obvious question heading into the 2002-03 season is, of course, whether the Los Angeles Lakers will four-peat, a feat that hasn't been achieved since the Boston Celtics won eight championships in a row between 1958 and 1966. But there are many other questions. |
