NBA SEASON

Is it me or did the NBA season start off with very little buzz this season? While I'm certainly not a huge NBA fan by any means but there are certainly enough story lines to keep me interested.

- Can LeBron James take the Cavs deep into the playoffs again? Let's be honest here, Cleveland is not a good team but they have a stud leading them.

- How will Paul Pierce, Kevin Garnett and Ray Allen (see picture) get along in Boston? If they can coexist, they are a scary squad

- Can the Dallas Mavericks stop anyone on defense? They can out score any team but as witness by their first-round playoff exit last year, defense wins championships.

- Where will Kobe (that selfish punk) finish the season? It certainly won't be with the Lakers.

The Best Teams:

- Dallas, San Antanio, Phoenix, Boston, Detroit, Chicago

Other Contenders:

- Miami, Denver, Utah, Houston
