2004-05 NBA Season Sneak Peek
If there was one single style to this off-season for the NBA it was 'alter' not only existed quite a bit of considerable gamer motion, however the league itself underwent a transformation of sorts, finally broadening to a 30th franchise, and straightening to six departments of 5 teams each. Obviously the most significant headlines this off-season surrounded the continuous legend that has actually become the Los Angeles Lakers. Generally the Lakers surrendered to Kobe, and he got all that he requested-- particularly the exit of Shaq, and Phil Jackson.
Other relocations of note this off-season, was Phoenix getting a whole brand-new back court of Steve Nash and Quentin Richardson, Dallas having wholesale modifications after losing out on Nash in the open market, they proceeded to dump Antawn Jamison and Antione Walker, and replaced Nash with Jason Terry (and rookie Devin Harris) and replaced 6th man Jamison with Jerry Stackhouse. Both teams and players must benefit greatly from this trade, particularly Indiana, as it now enables Reggie Miller to come of the bench. Of course there are the defending world champion Detroit Pistons who by all indications ought to be even more powerful this year, having Rasheed Wallace for an entire season, as well as adding Antonio McDyess and Derrick Coleman to their bench (both of whom would probably begin for some teams) plus if they get anything at all out of last years lottery pick Darko Milicic it would be a reward.
When all is stated and done this season all of the shuffling will have gotten a lot of teams closer, and it may have closed some spaces, but follow summer the final 4 must be very similar to what it has been recently, Detroit is still the group to beat in the East, and Indiana is the only group with an opportunity to do so. In the West San Antonio will once again be a force, and Minnesota must continue its current success behind perennial MVP prospect Kevin Garnett.
