NBA 09-10 Season - Looking to Make a Statement
With the NBA season beginning, there are a number of teams that are looking to make a statement, whether its separating from the middle pack or cementing themselves at the top and then there are those who are looking to turn the corner. Here are a couple of teams that should be interesting to watch as the season unfolds.
-Memphis Grizzlies
There has never been a more exciting team to watch in Memphis than this season’s new crew. With the addition of Allen Iverson, ticket sales have gone up, and the grizz have definitely become a more intriguing team to watch this year. The question on many people’s minds is how A.I a true scorer at heart will proceed in leading this young team loaded with scorers and players that are looking to make a name for themselves.
-Portland Trailblazers
Who would have thought the blazers would end up with the third Seed in the Playoffs at the start of the 08/09 season? The true key to success for this team in order for them to get to the next level will rest on the shoulders of Lamarcus Alderidge. Everybody knows that Brandon Roy is the leader on this team but he is not and nor is any one player capable of doing it by themselves in the Wild West. Scouts and Managers have noted Greg Oden’s play in the USA try outs in Vegas this past summer. If he’s capable of protecting the paint really well and Lamarcus steps up, watch out.
-Toronto Raptors
Bryan Colangelo has been more active than ever before this past summer trying to assemble a winning formula that will entice Chris Bosh to stick around. It has always been difficult in the past to land a legitimate Allstar, but with the addition of Hedo Turkoglu, the Raps are a much more promising team this season along with Jarrett Jack who will blossom coming off the bench. Look for Toronto to have a much better season that last year.
