With the NBA a month away from tip off. Let's have a good look at the offseason and all that has transpired from the last time I made a post. There is a lot to talk about!
The big one

Obviously, I have to start off with the biggest news. After almost 2 months of rumours and speculation about Kyrie Irving's future, he has finally been traded to the Boston Celtics. The package includes All-star, Isaiah Thomas, Jae Crowder, Ante Zizic, Brooklyn's 2018 first-round draft pick and a 2020 second-round pick via Miami all in exchange for Kyrie Irving.
The trade is a big as most of the Boston core have been traded away and the flipside being that Isaiah Thomas will be sidelined for the majority of the season with a hip injury. Many would look for a winner and a loser in a trade and as far as this trade is concerned, I see real winner or loser of this trade. I think the outcome is the best possible one that could have been found.
The Houston Rockets have been sold

The Houston Rockets have been sold for $2.2 billion, a record for an NBA franchise. The team has been sold to a billionaire by the name of Tilman Fertitta a local man. This sale has had a large impact on the market for the valuation of NBA teams as a valuation came out of the NY Knicks being valued at $3.5 billion. This to me is a clear indication of how the global love for the NBA is still growing and higher value teams just means higher value entertainment!
NBA preseason
The NBA preseason is set to start on 30 September and the moment that happens I am going to be making daily posts on results and news stories. I think I speak for all of us NBA fans that we all just want to see an NBA game and are tired of weak news stories!!
