Jeremy Conn: NBA Is Back

I know there aren't a lot of people as happy as I am that the NBA lockout is over, but I miss professional basketball.

I'm a Dallas Mavericks fan and for the first time ever they are the defending World Champs. This is a really important season for the league, because depending on how the season goes, a few of the best players in the league could be changing teams or forcing their way out. Lots of interest in the best big man, Dwight Howard, and also the best point guard( in my opinion) Chris Paul. Derrick Rose is going to want a brand new contract and will the Celtics try to get younger or possibly move Rajon Rondo.

What other players will sell their soul to the devil (Pat Riley) on a 1 year deal? Less money for an excellent chance to win a championship. I do believe this is the year the Heat get it done and win the whole thing. Ill take the Heat over the Lakers in 6.
