For those who love basketball, NBA is a dream league that all great basketball players are being gathered. Thankfully, on October 17th, the new season finally started with various events and interesting schedules. Before we enjoy watching those plays, there are also many issues and things to consider about them such as if the Golden State Warriors be able to get the trophy, and if who will be the next champion of the East.

Most importantly, many people wonder if the Golden State Warriors can achieve three-peat. Even though they had to release Zaza Pachulia and Javale McGee because of the salary cap which restricts the total money of each club to pay for their players, they got DeMarcus Cousins, and he will get 5.3 million dollars a year. This issue was totally shocking for basketball fans since Golden State Warriors can now constitute their starting line up with 5 All-Star members, and 5.3 million dollars are too less for players like Cousins. Many people argue that Cousins wanted to move to the Golden State Warriors in order to win the trophy. After all, for the club, it is likely for them to win the following season as they succeeded to reinforce their center position.

On top of that, many people also wonder who will be the next champion of the Eastern Conference. Since the 'King', Lebron James, moved to another team, Los Angelos, it seems like the previous champion, the Cleveland Cavaliers, would fail to be the champion in the following season. Instead, the Boston Celtics and the Philadelphia 76ers are rising as candidates for the Eastern Champion. With the recovery of Kyrie Irving and Gordon Hayward, Boston Celtics successfully supplemented their line up, becoming the victory-predicting team. The Philadelphia 76ers created a harmony between young and old players. Among this situation, many fans are expecting an interesting season in the Eastern Conference.

As more and more people are enjoying basketball these days, the NBA league is getting more attention than any other period. I hope that I can see the match soon.
