PRESENTATION LETTER
It is difficult to explain the first sensations I have had after so long without being able to enjoy players like Kevin Durant, Stephen Curry or Victor Oladipo. More KD who, despite being a year and a half without playing the court, is able to crush the hoop with the same serenity he was used to.
Although, perhaps, I have to leave the individualities for another day and focus the beginning of this letter of introduction to the intense, but very intense, staging of some Brookling Nets who knew how to bite in each of the defenses to the, more than solitary, mothership of Golden State Warriors.
I'm looking forward to it when I think I'll see Steve Nash's team's matchups against the Los Angeles two, which did have a more even game in the Clippers' win that saw Paul George's three-pointers come in, one after another, in the crucial minutes, putting the Lakers between Kawhi Leonard's sword and the hard wall of the Western Conference.
Looking the other way, I appreciate rudy Gobert's recent renewal with the Utah Jazz who celebrated that contract by crafting an exquisite game, and quite accomplished, to defeat the Portland Trail Blazers. The fight to enter the top of the Western rankings with players such as Donovan Mitchell, Croatian Bojan Bogdanovic, Mike Conley, Derrick Favors, Joe Ingles or, the already named French center will be an added attraction to the music brought from New Orleans in the 80's.
And speaking of Louisiana's past, it may not be so far-fetched to also see Zion Williamson and his Pelicans make the playoffs with the help of Brandon Ingram, Eric Bledsoe and a Lonzo Ball more engaged in the dynamics of the competition.
Now I travel to Pennsylvania with the mission of understanding how Russel Westbrook, despite changing the set again, continues to play triple-double without hiding against opponents like Ben Simmons or, the huge, Joel Embiid who took the lead of the 76ers to achieve the comeback against the Wizards in a last quarter worthy for the competition.
However, the maximum tension was felt in the decisive four thousandths that we could witness in the last breath of the unforgettable premiere that makes interesting the starting point in the eastern conference.
I can only hope that all the games will end in a similar way to the confrontation between Boston and Milwaukee although it means that I will not see the time to say goodbye to the altered pumping that made my heart flow in the victory, by the minimum, of the Celtics after the erroneous free throw of the Bucks before the eyes of the Garden.
