Basketball season starts tomorrow!
You know damn well who I'll be rooting for this year... and the year after that... and the year after that... and... You get the picture :) Forget preseason ball, the official season starts tomorrow with Miami vs. Boston at 7pm EST... BUT for me, as well as other Lakers fans, it officially starts at 7:30 OUR time when our boys in purple and gold play against the Houston Rockets. The Lakers will be playing the 2010-2011 season with five new players: Ratliff coming from the Bobcats, Devin Ebanks coming from West Virginia University (43rd pick in the 2010 NBA Draft), Derrick Caracter was the 58th overall pick by the Lakers in the 2010 draft as well, Steve Blake coming from the Clippers, and Matt Barnes coming from Magic. I haven't caught too much of preseason ball, but from the Lakers preseason ball that I have seen, Blake is aiiight. Hoping him and Ebanks prove a bit more why they're on a championship team. As for Barnes, just another Artest to me. You hated him, but once you found out he was gonna be on our team, couldn't be any happier. The dynamics of this team could be really good for L.A. and another possible championship win could be possible... or am i just doing some wishful thinking? Then again there are so many damn injuries on this team who knows how this season's gonna play out haha I'm happy to see the returning players back on for another year, BUT i could go without seeing Walton on the team... just saying :) Basketball season will be here and i can't wait!
