This Year is Different
It isn't like the Dallas Mavericks winning the NBA title in June was a big secret, but until now no one within the NBA was talking about basketball and everyone outside the sport was only talking about the lack thereof.
But now it is back to business as usual and everyone is clamoring about the NBA. Talk of the upcoming season is as prominent as Christmas at Starbucks. The NBA chatter is focused on the upcoming season and whether the Mavericks have the legs to repeat as champions or if the Miami Heat will come back with more fire than ever to take back what they already knew was theirs in August of 2010.
