Fantastic athletes

82 regular season games then the playoffs and all the travelling in between.

Yep, especially when u think of all that travel. They do earn big money but seem to put in the graft so I don't begrudge them like I do some footy players.

Playoffs

The WEST First Round Match Ups
Oklahoma City Thunder/Houston Rockets
San Antonio Spurs/LA Lakers
Denver Nuggets/ Golden State Warriors
Los Angeles Clippers/Memphis Grizzlies

The EAST First Round Match Ups
Miami Heat/Milwaukee Bucks
New York Knicks/Boston Celtics
Indiana Pacers/Atlanta Hawks
Brooklyn Nets/Chicago Bulls

So are these play off games like a mini league or straight knockout matches?

I like Miami because of Lebron and his LFC connection, but I do want to make a proper informed selection of which team to follow.

I'm a golden state fan

I'm glad Brooklyn are doing well though. They've got street cred up the ying yang

I thought you were a Brooklyn fan.

Golden state doing ok though

Thats the guy, wow what a player.

I personally rate him better than lebron. Durant can score at will and is literally unstoppable at times. If he wanted to he could score 40 a night easy.

Kevin Durant

There is absolutely no chance of either of those happening in the near future.

I am not sure how the trade system works in the NBA. I was just imagining a dream team scenario of Miami Heat signing him and that unbelievable dud e that plays for Oklahoma Thunder. I am learning...slowly.

It can be quite complicated with a few teams involved and the requirement to free up salary cap space etc.

Just found this which gives you an idea on how it works
