NBA is Back

Just like Hockey did a few weeks ago, the NBA has crept back up on us all. Lots of intriguing plot lines this year to get into and I am sure we will begin to cover some of these in some previews and breakdowns of some early season match ups. Hockey is in full gear, NBA is starting up, NFL is in full swing, and MLB is starting the World Series....what a time for sports.
Wanted to touch on two quick games tonight, the TNT double header. First off with NBA comes TNT pregame and halftime reports and Big Chuck Barkley. This crew is honestly the best group of analysts you can find in any sports. They know there stuff, are controversial, and honestly funny. I can't take listening to Fox and CBS stutter and laugh at themselves at non-sense anymore.

Game one match ups up two favorites in the east. Celtics @ Cavs. Lets see how the Big Witness protection program (Shaq) works in Cleveland. If nothing else, this should be the funnest pregame introduction team in the league by far. Expect nothing less then an MVP out of Lebron this year.

Sad note on the Clippers franchise who face off vs the Lakers tonight. Should be good to see Ron Artest go nuts on the lakers at some point this season. Clippers receive a huge blow with the latest news that Blake Griffin stud #1 prospect trashed his knee and the Clipper Curse Continues. He will be out around 6 weeks and its a shame because everyone wants to see what this kid can really do. All signs point to him being NBA ready. The Clippers may have been able to contend in the west for an 8 seed as they have some decent pieces. Excellent big man in the inured Griffin, Camby, and Chris "top three ugliest in NBA" Kaman. Al Thorton is a solid player. Baron Davis is apparently in better shape than ever looking for a bounce back year, and Eric Gordon is ever improving. Plus any team with Sebastian Telfair has to be good, its a proven track record.....


Lets see what the NBA season brings us...
