The NBA is back so it's time to get the gears churning again in the NBA tank. Stepped away from the forum for a bit after the season ended and excited to be back here in such a rich, knowledgeable community. I'm sure,despite all the technicalities and issues at hand, we're all relieved to know the NBA will be back come Christmas. With that said, speculation is going to be absolutely insane going forward. Amnesty scenarios alone can leave an NBA fan thinking of crazy possibilities. With all the momentum the league built up last season culminating with Dirk's redemption and Lebron's "meltdown", this season was shaping up to be one of the most memorable ever.
But what did we lose? Twenty games? Look at all of the media coverage over the last few months. The NBA may not have been in session, but as cliche as it may sound, basketball doesn't stop. Basketball was out there, making headlines, this whole time. We were able to see some of the players on a different level. Goodman and Drew Leagues, two great examples. Yeah, the summer leagues generally happen, but nothing on the scale that we were given access to this year. This lockout has been such a letdown, but with it ending, looking back my fondest memory will be when I caught the Josh Howard Charity Game a few weeks ago. It's been a strange journey, but it's been satisfying. How hungry is everyone for a season right now?
With that being said, what do you look forward to the most?
I was going to make this a poll but polls are cop outs and I couldn't possibly list all of the crazy things that can take place in this season.
The number one thing I look forward to seeing the most is what Kobe Bryant has left in the tank. He had the knee treatment, and has been given time to heal, something he hasn't had in a very long time. Window is very small for this Lakers team as it stands, and I don't expect Superman to be the present every Lakers fan opens Christmas morning.
