The season starts tonight! Oh, boy! Are we all really excited? We should be. What’s everyone going to do to celebrate? I’m going to watch alone in my room and maybe eat some pretzels. Celebration! Coverage This season on the NBA’s All Ball Blog, they will have a rookie diary feature. Yesterday, John Henson’s first [...]
Not much should be taken from NBA preseason games. Coaches mess around with rotations, players aren’t always giving it full effort and games sometimes start at 10 in the morning.
