It's been awhile

Long time no see.

I really lost interest in the NBA after mid September, I wasn't even checking the sites or other blogs, I really didn't wanted to read about Kobe trades, the Isiah trial, Miami's injuries or how ready are the Mavs for the next season. So, those were my reasons and I'm happy I get away for a month or so, I look younger and happier, maybe the NBA is not good for me, but that ship have sailed.

So, tip off is tomorrow night, and I having the feeling that's going to be a cool start of the season. We are going to have Kobe trade scenarios until the actual trade goes down. We are going to have articles and pieces about the Miami Heat and how Pat Riley is trying to turn the team around and Wade is working his butt off to turn around the then awful Miami Season.

Knicks, Magic, Nuggets and Rockets are expected to have a good or maybe great season. Dallas, Phoenix, Chicago and Cleveland are hoping to be the last one standing at the end. Boston is going to be the team to follow, the Big Three -version 21 Century- are not expected to gel right out of the gate, but they are expected to make a strong playoff push.

And we have the good ol' Spurs, are the going to win it again or continue their reluctance to repeat? Is Tony Parker 20 pounds lighter after a "busy" summer? Is Manu balder?

There's a lot stuff happening and thank God they all generate news to follow

Amare Stoudemire



Is funny how the presence or absence of one word in a sentence changes absolutely everything. Some three weeks ago we found out that Oden was undergoing " exploratory arthroscopic surgery" In the same very moment we all went "Crap!". We knew what was going to happen, we just knew it. Now, Amare is putting himself through "undergo minor arthroscopic knee surgery". I don't know about you, but I don't smell anything evil cooking in the Basketball's Gods oven. Is funny, isn't ?


Update: Nothing new or shocking. Amare will only miss less than a month.



In other unrelated business, it's good to know I'm not the only one wondering what the hell is wrong with Stephon Marbury.



Just one more thought, after reading this note , can somebody explain me why they haven't trade Chris Duhon? (Thanks to BlogaBull for the link)
