Not voting for a game with my team in it, because I look forward to watching my team several times more then I look forward to watching any other team.... I'd say Brand's return. Also any Hornets vs Lakers teams.

Suns/Lakers season series... especially the games in LA

76ers at Clip Show

Clippers/Warriors season series

Suns/Heat series

Oden vs. star bigs

Ron Artest at Knicks (has only been back there once since being a King, and they lost that game), Pacers, Pistons.

Bulls/Heat series

76ers/Celtics series

76ers/Cavs series

Bulls/Hornets, Jazz

Mavs at Nets

A whole lot to be hyped about, once again.

Philly/Clipps for sure.
But the most interesting game IMO will be the Clippers against the Warriors.

Benedict Brand's return. I don't think there will be a single Clipper fan who isn't going to be booing him. It's going to be an event.

I'm waiting for Baron's return to Oakland. Monta will drop 40 on him. Corey and Jackson will pwn Mobley and Thornton. Then we'll put out a Randolph/Wright/Biedrins trio to run the Clips out of the building as the Warriors win the game.

It would be entertaining if Josh Smith joined LAC though; Josh and DeAndre would have a lot of monster dunks.

Oh really? Please tell me which center ( excluding yao and dwight ) is better then bynum , and not to forget the fact that bynum keeps getting better from GAME to GAME
im no homer , trust me on that , but telling me bynum isnt the 3rd best center ( before he went down ) is being stupid
