THETRUTHSPORTS

So we at The Truth Sports have been in our own training camp preparing for the 09′-10′ NBA season. Wind sprints, shuttle cones, 500 jumpers, and the ice bag to the knees to keep swelling down. This upcoming season is 20 days away and its looking to be a pretty interesting year. The replacement refs add a spice to the league, that I’m sure Rasheed Wallace, and Stan Van Gundy are gonna love. Speaking of Rasheed Wallace, can you believe he is coming off the bench for the Boston Celtics. The Eastern Conference has a chance of being the more competitive conference this year. Shaq and Lebron, Ben Gordon and Rip Hamilton, Hedo and Bosh, Howard and Vince, and D-Wade(aka Basketball Robot#3) all by himself. The team that makes it out of the East will most likely be facing off against the defending champs the Los Angeles Lakers. The Lakers “on paper” seem unstoppable, and Phil jackson loves BIG lineups. The Bynum, Gasol, Odom, Artest, Bryant lineup has to strike fear in the hearts of every team with players not named Dwight Howard, Kevin Garnett, or Shaq. The Lakers will receive the majority of the spotlight as the season goes along, but in Memphis they actually have a reason to go to the FedEx Forum. The Iverson experiment in Memphis has a Brett Favre like scenario to it. Can or better yet, will Iverson mentor the young Grizzlies or will he be a distraction. Hopefully he practices with them, at least.(Are we talking about practice?) So back to the gym, with my cut-up sweats on, with the pockets pulled out.
