NBA- Finally

[redcross]

I love the NBA great time of year right to seeing new players, traded players, and new coaches. Great to see Miami starting out rough but I doubt that will last. Oh and where did Philly come from?? I'm a rockets can so awesome to have Dwight Howard on our squad (yes I did think he was a giant baby in Orlando, and LA. But having him happy and on your team changes my perspective.)

Although I have noticed refs are calling everything soooo tight this year! Let them play basketball. Anything you all noticed or want to talk about?

I am an nba fan, and a raptor fan. I don't know if I want them to flunk and do horrible or make the playoffs and get knocked out first round? That's my best and worse for my nba team this year

Raptors are playing to get the worse record along with a bunch of teams. This yrs draft class is good and everyone thats borderline playoff team to the worse teams are playing for Wiggens.

So as a raptors can how do you feel about the trade rumors involving Rudy Gay? I can't believe they would trade him, you just got him! I thought he would be someone to build around through the drafts and acquisitions.

But if they do trade him that goes to what you are saying about them just tanking it to get a good draft pick. That's what's tough about being a middle of the road team (I know from my days in Portland), no free agents really want to come to your market on top of everything else. A lot has to do with ownership, are they willing to spend the money and take risks to win.

Are you in Toronto? How much attention does the city pay to basketball??

Rudy gay is no one to build a franchise around. he is a good player yes, but I do not see him as the future, honestly, I don't see a good future yet lol

think Heats would took 3 titles in a row.
I do hope before retired, Kobe have one more ring. the same number as air Jordan.

Id love to see OKC take home the ring. Hopefully they can just stay healthy. Such a bummer last year when Westbrook got hurt. Whoever they played after that would just double and triple Durant and made his life miserable.
Kobe is awesome I love how hungry he is. I feel the same I want him to get another ring, how great would an LA Miami finals be where Kobe rips their heart out. Unfortunately the lakers are awful and even if Kobe comes back there isn't much else on the team.
