Seems like just yesterday LeBron James was trying to put a depleted Cleveland Cavaliers team on his back vs Steph Curry and his #1 Golden State Warriors. The Warriors would go on to beat the Cavs in 6 games and hoist the trophy in the air with confetti falling, symbolizing Chef Curry’s automatic jumper that had been falling all season. Finally , we get to see that jumper again, along with all the other NBA All-Stars now that the season is back upon us.
Several storylines will be in the fold this year, such as: Can the defending champs repeat? Who will be the MVP? Will LeBron win another, especially for Cleveland? Will the Spurs win a 6th championship? Is this Kobe’s last season? Can the Clippers finally get over the hump? These and many more questions will be answered from now until next June. But in the meantime, let’s enjoy another season of the world’s best players going at it, making highlight reel plays that we will never forget. The NBA season starts…..NOW! Enjoy.
