The Beginning

Hear Ye, Hear Ye! The National Basketball Association is back! Will LeBron James make it to his improbable 7th straight NBA Finals? Can the 76ers finally break the 20 wins barrier? Is Mike D’Antoni going to live up to his offensive guru status and mold James Harden into a PG? Which young star (Karl Anthony-Towns, Kristaps Porzingis, Devin Booker, D’Angelo Russell, etc) will take the next evolutionary step and become a superstar? Did Oklahoma City or Orlando win the Serge Ibaka-Victor Oladipo trade? How will the trio of Jimmy Butler, Dwayne Wade & Rajon Rondo mesh in Chicago? With Tim Duncan now retired, who steps up as the leader in San Antonio? Is this the year the Kings cash in the Boogie Cousins trade chip? Oh yeah, I can’t forget about the biggest story-line; KD in the bay. These are just a handful of the questions I have heading into the 2016-2017 season. Over the coming weeks and months, the answers to these questions will become clear, but for now, in the immortal words of Kevin Garnett, “ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE!
