NBA 2019 Summer – Insane

What an unbelievable summer it has been. Durant and Irving to the Brooklyn Nets. Horford to the Sixers, Butler to the Heat, D’Angelo Russel to Warriors, Kemba Walker to the Celtics, Anthony Davis traded to the Lakers,  Rondo also to the Lakers, along with DeMarcus Cousins and Danny Green.

However, last night, the biggest deal was made by the other Los Angeles team, the Clippers. They shocked the NBA world by trading for Paul George. They were already in the run for Kawhi Leonard and closed in on a deal also last night.

Now the Clippers are the clear favorite to come out of the West. They have two of the top players in the NBA and, one of the best coaches in the NBA in Doc Rivers.

I’m officially excited about the NBA and the upcoming season now. So many new story lines going into the year and new teams having new expectations. This is going to be a fun year.
