[. . . ] WARNING: READ BEFORE USING YOUR XBOXTM VIDEO GAME ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEM. About Photosensitive Seizures A very small percentage of people may experience a seizure when exposed to certain visual images, including flashing lights or patterns that may appear in video games. Even people who have no history of seizures or epilepsy may have an undiagnosed condition that can cause these "photosensitive epileptic seizures" while watching video games. These seizures may have a variety of symptoms including: lightheadedness, altered vision, eye or face twitching, jerking or shaking of arms or legs, disorientation, confusion, or momentary loss of awareness. Seizures may also cause loss of consciousness or convulsions that can lead to injury from falling down or striking nearby objects. [. . . ] They also have a solid bench full of role players and a couple of young first-rounders who figure to bring much-needed energy to the club. Key Performers: #5 SG Ron Mercer Playing for his fourth team in four years, Mercer may have found a home in the Windy City. His 19. 7 ppg were a career-high, and he figures to be even more of a go-to guy this season in the absence of Elton Brand. He'll be asked to take on more of a leadership role this year as well, and should be able to push his scoring average over twenty a game. #3 C Tyson Chandler / #2 PF Eddy Curry IIt will be a trial by fire for these two teenagers taken with the #2 and #4 picks in this year's draft. You can bet they didn't run into a lot of guys like Karl Malone or Robert Traylor in their high school leagues last year. Still, both have enormous upside, and could patrol the paint for the Bulls for years to come. Denver Nuggets Head Coach: Mike Evans Internet Site: http://www. nba. com/nuggets/ 2000-01 Record: 40-42 (6th place, Midwest Division) Team Outlook: Like the Cavaliers, the Nuggets seem to be a player or two away from really making a difference in their division. As their near-. 500 record indicates, Denver has the ability to play with the majority of teams in the Midwest Division. Adding to an already veteran-heavy club, they've rolled the dice this offseason hoping that veterans such as Scott Williams and Avery Johnson can provide production off the bench. Key Performers: #24 PF Antonio McDyess Some were surprised when he was drafted with the #2 overall pick in 1995, but McDyess has developed into one of the top power forwards in the Western Conference. His incredible quickness to the rim and nose for the ball down low make him a complete player on both ends of the floor, as his 20. 8 ppg and 12. 1 rpg last season attest. #31 PG Nick Van Exel "Nick the Quick" came into the NBA with a "shoot first" mentality, but as he's grown older, the lefthander has developed into one of the leading assist men in the NBA. He'll still let fly a few threepointers (leading the team with 135 last year), but his playmaking skills and quick first step are what set him apart. Cleveland Cavaliers Head Coach: John Lucas Internet Site: http://www. nba. com/cavaliers/ 2000-01 Record: 30-52 (6th place, Central Division) Team Outlook: The Cavs have never seemed ready to have that breakout season in recent years, but things could finally be looking up in Cleveland. Point guard Andre Miller is developing into one of the best in the Eastern Conference, and the frontcourt combination of Lamond Murray, Tyrone Hill, Michael Doleac and Chris Mihm is improving. The Cavs should have enough weapons to play with most of the teams in the Central Division. Key Performers: #24 PG Andre Miller Few realize that in just his second season, Miller led all Eastern Conference point guards in assists a year ago. On the agenda this year ­ improving upon his scoring average. His quick hands and good court awareness stand out, but he'll need those points per game to increase significantly if this club hopes to be playoff contenders. #11 C Zydrunas Ilgauskas Sure he's injury prone - you'd be too if you had screws in both of your feet. But when this Lithuanian big man is in the lineup, the Cavs are a markedly different team. Few players in the NBA clog the lane better than this 7'3", 260-pounder. Detroit Pistons Head Coach: Rick Carlisle Internet Site: http://www. nba. com/pistons/ 2000-01 Record: 32-50 (5th place, Central Division) Team Outlook: A perfect marriage of team and city, the Pistons rely on their blue-collar ethic on the boards to outmuscle and outwork other teams. The frontcourt defense is solid with unheralded Ben Wallace, and the team has a true drawing card in high-flying scorer Jerry Stackhouse, but Detroit will need other players to pick up some of the offensive punch if this team is to make a serious playoff run.
