"Review of The 2012-2013 NBA Season" by: Melissa MIlton


There has been huge controversy over the trades that the NBA has made this year, such as Dwight Howard going to the Los Angeles Lakers, and leaving the Orlando Magic, also Ray Allen leaving his beloved Boston to go to the Miami Heat. We also have Steve Nash who was traded to the Lakers. The big talk is who do we predict to win the 2012-2013 NBA title. The Los Angeles, with a starting line up consisting of Pau Gasol, Steve Nash, the forever amazing Kobe Bryant, Dwight Howard and MWP (Metta World Peace), or will it be the defending champs! The Miami heat, they have a starting line up of Ray Allen, Lebron “all-star” James, Dwayne Wade, Chris Bosh, and Mario Chalmers. And the very young but, very talented Oklahoma City. With Kevin Durant, Thabo Sefolosha, Serge Ibaka, Kendrick Perkins, and Russell Westbrook. Which team will come out on top?

Now, the main two are The Lakers and The Heat, but will Oklahoma come out as as an underdog? Most polls suggest that Miami will win, but each team is stacked. It will be a very close call indeed, but whoever wins between the three it will be bitter sweet. All the main players of each of the three teams played together in the London Olympics, they all won the gold metal together and shared that happiness and now they are playing against each other. All in all this is the best the NBA has been in a while, with Kobe leading his team a 34 years old (his birthday was august 23rd) and Durant, Westbrook and Harden who are all 23, and 24 they are one of the best generations of basketball we will see. So I hope you take all that I have said in this article and when you watch the NBA you will know what’s going on, but first we have college football to get through!
