NBA is Back, and I Couldn’t Be Happier
All hail the National Basketball Association! It’s great to see the NBA back on television once again. This season begins with questions just like every season, but that’s why it’s fun. We have until next June to figure everything out.
The Boston Celtics look even stronger this year than the were last year. Of course they’ll miss James Posey (signed as a free agent to the New Orleans Hornets), but Paul Pierce, Kevin Garnett and Ray Allen remain, and they look much more comfortable together at the start of this season then a year ago.
The Los Angeles Lakers are still the best team in the west. With a healthy Andrew Bynum, they’re likely to repeat as Western Conference Champions and should be a greater threat to win the NBA title.
Good, young point guards are a year smarter and more experienced. Chris Paul, Deron Williams, Baron Davis, Tony Parker, etc… We can finally add Chicago Bulls Rookie, Derrick Rose to the mix.
Speaking of rookies, I’m excited to see Derrick Rose and Miami Heat’s Michael Beasley begin their NBA careers. These are 2 bright talents and look seasoned enough to make some noise early.
Will the New York Knicks begin to resemble an NBA franchise again? New coach Mike D’antoni should bring some excitement and a new attitude to the organization, but they still have some bad seeds on the team. Gotta get rid of Marbury, gotta get rid of Eddie Curry.
LeBron James is still LeBron James. He’s probably the single best prospect in the league…the perfect combination of speed, size, and ability. But that’s not enough, he added intelligence and leadership to the mix. Now the Cavaliers just need to find some pieces to add so they can compete with the Celtics.
Should be fun. The season is young and there’s a lot of good talent around the league. Enjoy!
