Ok, I know that the season of NBA just started. But there is nothing wrong to give an opinion about it, right? For those who have not read my previous blog, I just want to say that I really like Lebron James. I have been following his games since he was being drafted by the Cleveland Cavaliers in 2003. If you follow the newest rumor about Lebron James, you know that he will be a free agent in Summer 2010, and many teams in NBA already clear their salary cap to get Lebron as their newest star of the team. But in this blog I want to talk about the race for the Playoff.
Los Angeles Lakers, is the strongest contender from the Western to become the NBA champion this season. They already played 15 games (as I wrote this blog) with a 14 wins and only 1 loss. To be honest, I was a fan of Kobe Bryant back in the elementary but because of some stupid excuses I becoming 1 of the person who hates Kobe.
Boston Celtics, the NBA champion of the 2007-2008 season, is also one of the strongest contender in the Eastern. They are not the strongest contender because in my opinion they are having a decrease of their performance (I think because their stars; Pierce, Allen and Garnett are getting old).
Orlando Magic, is not the strongest contender indeed but their performance prove me wrong. Maybe I am a little bit subjective here because my favorite Center, Dwight “Superman” Howard playing for them. Can you believe his stats? 20 or more point per game, 14 rebound per game and 2.8 block per game. I mean, WOW dude. He really is a SUPERMAN.
Last but not least, Cleveland Cavaliers. Honestly, I like this team because Lebron play for them. Before He came here, I did not even know who the players of this team. But, Lebron averaging 27.9 point per game, 7.2 rebound per game and 8.1 assist per game, and also his minutes per game is decreasing from 40 minutes per game to 32 minutes per game. This season, he get a lot of help from Mo William, Daniel Gibson, Ben Wallace, Delonte West, Wally Sczerbiac and Zydraunas Ilgaukas. They are having 13 wins from 14 games.
I know, i know, it is too early to discuss about who will be the champion this year. I just too excited of the progress this season. New players; Greg Oden, Michael Beasley, Derrick Rose, O.J Mayo, and many other rookie that have their magnificent talent that will develop and also the future of my favorite player, Lebron James.
