serendipity can blow all things out of proportion but isn't it a LITTLE conspiracy-theory-y that the LAC make it to the headlining opening day schedule before they lucked out on CP3? i suppose blake-vs-warriors is a decent enough draw, but i don't think it's opening day material...

also, it did look like lebron did work on his post game this summer. he had a move today - spin-away, left-handed hook/floater that was looked mildly rehearsed. i hope singleton's ready to tackle lecrab.

Wow. Miami spanked Dallas.

Miami clearly had the advantage with Wade, LB and Bosh returning as the core while Dallas has some adjusting to do.

Boston would have beat NY is they had PP playing but NY will clearly be a playoff team with Melo and Amare and Chandler.

Looking for to seeing the younger team later today.

Wow, Howard really worked on his game. He is looking like a beast.

Edit. Never mind

OKC looks really touch this year.

ORL just doesnt have the same team feel. They seem lost.

I thought Howard sucked against OKC, even defensively he didn't look as sharp on rotations. He's definitely checked out..
