NBA - Which player are you most excited about next season?

Question

Name 5 players you cant wait to see in action next season
Doesn't have to be the best player or most exciting. just what you're anticipating

my List is
Kevin Durant (after a taste of post season, i think he's going to be a BEAST 35ppg!!)
Derrick Rose (he will get some talent next season, whether it be James or someone else, he will be the best PG next season imo)
Yao Ming (yes im a rockets fan, can't wait to see Yao back in Action)
John Wall (Very excited about wall, cant wait to see what unfolds with Arenas)
Chris Paul (has ALOT to prove that he's still the best PG in the NBA)

Answer 1

1. Kevin Durant- He had an amazing season this past year. The Thunder were the most exciting playoff team. He is going to continue getting better on offense and defense. He has tasted the playoffs and will come back for more. I think he stays around the 30 point mark since the Thunder will have a bit more firepower next season. I say his rebounding numbers go up even more, and he improves his defense.

2. Russell Westbrook- This kid showed flashes of brilliance in the regular season. and played excellently against the Lakers in the first round. His defense is already very good for his position. His rebounding isi great. He still has turnover and shooting problems but he will continue to improve in those categories.He is a Rondo like player, who can defend and rebound very well for a point guard. I think he will improve his scoring even more next season. Another thing I like about him is how he knows his game. He knows his weaknesses and knows when to stop taking shots when he's cold,. He also knows when to take over(la series)

3. Rajon Rondo- If this guy can play like he is right now in the regular season he will be right up there as the best point guard in the NBA. He's probably the best defender and rebounder for his position. With the Big 3 getting older, Rondo will take on more of the scoring load. I think he will have a 16/6/8 year.

4. Derrick Rose- He is a great player but I really want to see what happens when Dwyane Wade or LeBron joins the Bulls if they do. Wade and LeBron need the ball to be effective and so does Eose. I want to see how he plays with a superstar on his team.

5. I'm looking forward to a big season from Danny Granger after his okay season this year. I think he can do what durant did this year but to a lesser extent.

Answer 2

I'm a Knicks fan...



1. David Lee - I want to see where he's playing {hopefully still with the Knicks}. He gets better and better each and every season and incorporates new parts to his overall game every year as well. Now that he has a dead on accurate mid-range game he said that come next season he will have added a three point game to his arsenal and more dedicated defense as well. He shot 3 3 pointers this season all of which hit rim but clanked out. He hit some 20 footers so he does have the range ability if he works on it. If he adds this and a defensive game he'd be as close to perfect as one can get.



2. Danilo Gallinari - Is only 21 years old and this season could be considered as his "rookie" season being that he only played in 20+ games last year and did not start the season playing due to injury last season. However, this season he's had a couple of 30 point games, double-doubles, led the NBA in 3 pointers made and attempted, and pretty much showed off his entire package as a very skilled guy with tons of expectations and unlimited potential. Went toe-to-toe with Carmelo Anthony and upstaged him in the end.



3. Wilson Chandler - He is very athletic, can defend (can only get better), is extremely versatile and can dip his hand in a little bit of everything. The potential of his game has no bounds he's only 23 and can be a future All-Star possibly.



4. LeBron James - I wanna see where he plays and it would be interesting to study his mindset and see if he can get his ring.



5. Dirk - Same as LeBron. Only more closely watched by me cause he's been at it longer than Bron trying to get a first ring.



----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

6. Michael Redd - Wherever he goes I wanna see if he still has it

7. Blake Griffin - I wanna see if he lives up to the hype

8. Robin Lopez - I think he's playing his tail off for PHX & it would be sweet to see where he takes it.



9. Marcus Camby/Greg Oden/Joel Przybila - I want to see Oden free from injury. And hopefully Camby and Przybila stay away from injuries as well. I want to see whether or not this trio can work out. Mainly the duo of Camby and Oden.



10. Steve Nash - I love Nash. I hope he wins the NBA Title this season. And I know he's fine wine and will have another great season next year. Nevertheless, if he wins or losses the title. I want to see how he reacts next season in an attempt to defend the championship (something he never had to worry about before) or keep on trying to win a championship (something he's been at it for years now.)

Answer 3

Rajon Rondo- can he dominate the regular season like he does the post season Derrick Rose- for the same reason you put Melo- he better than Lebron imo Jonny Flynn- if he had more freedom like Jennings did he would've had better stats Corey Brewer- can he make improvements like this last season

Answer 4

The Knicks once more... Out with one of the crucial pleasant coaches of latest basketball and in with an fool GM. Not to say they received nearly no support within the draft. It's time for a whole overhaul of the Knicks. It's the technology of the Bull subsequent 12 months.. Bank on it.

Answer 5

Blake Griffin - i want to see if he'll be the next Karl Malone or the next Michael Beasley.

Danny Granger - can he take his game up another level and go from star to superstar.

Dwayne Wade - i just like watching him play.

George Hill - can his stock continue to rise in san antonio.

Tracy McGrady - was always one of my favorites. i hope his injuries have not ended his career.

Answer 6

Kevin Durant, in time he will be the best player in the game.

Answer 7

LeBron James - to see who he is playing with

Answer 8

rajon rondo

blake griffin -( is he really that good)
