The NBA and WNBA have conquered the pro sports landscape by making sure we never have to go more than a few days without professional basketball. The Las Vegas Aces won the WNBA Finals 3-1 just four nights ago and here we are getting ready for the season to tip.
As usual, there are plenty of lingering questions to answer this season and several have to do with KD, Harden, and the Sixers.
How will the newest big three of KD, Booker, and Beal fare in the stronger Western Conference?
Will Harden ever play for Daryl Morey again? Is Harden yet another future Clipper?
Can Embiid maintain MVP form and do it for 65+ games to meet the new awards standard?
Will the current Clippers, especially Kawhi and PG remain healthy top-tier talents?
Will the reigning champion Nuggets stay at the top of the West and can Jokic stay at the top of his game? Can Jamal Murray or even Aaron Gordon make their first All-Star game? Will the young talent adequately replace Bruce Brown and other vets from last year's team?
Will the Bucks' or Celtics' improvements on paper manifest over 82 games AND into the NBA Finals?
Who will emerge from the next tier of the Eastern Conference? The Knicks? The Cavs? The Nets? Does the regular season even matter to the Heat?
Will Lebron ever truly decline? Can the Lakers stay healthy and contend for the top of the West?
Will the Warriors core decline? Does CP3 come off the bench?
Will the Thunder, T-Wolves, Jazz, or Pelicans make the leap? Or could Wemby, Scoot, or the Rockets mix of youth and vets vaunt them into playoff contention?
