Los Angeles Lakers
Kobe Bryant just celebrated birthday number 31 (on eight/23), although he is just "ripe for the selecting". His team finished the '08-09 season in otherworldly fashion.
The Lakers are recently off signing Ron Artest and extending the agreement of Lamar Odom. Andrew Bynum agreed to a rewarding $58 million deal during the 2008 year and, if he could remain healthy, may maybe emerge as a "regular" high impact force in the paint (both on offense and defense).
And if that weren't enough for Bryant, he has additionally got Pau Gasol and one of the top coaches in NBA history.
Orlando Magic
They're deep, especially at the center position. With the enhancements of Vince Carter in addition to Ryan Anderson (by means of the Courtney Lee/Rafer Alston/Tony Battie trade), the acquisition of (Jason) Williams (for point guard depth), Brandon Bass, and Matt Barnes, the contract extension of Marcin Gortat, and the presence of Dwight Howard, Rashard Lewis, Jameer Nelson, and Mickael Pietrus, the Magic are looking relatively more such as the loathsome villain they ended up as in the Eastern Conference Finals.
Though now, they're shooting for a title. Howard even forced himself and Nelson to sit through the Lakers' celebrations, in an attempt to prevent undergoing a similar kind of disappointment.
San Antonio Spurs
They chose up yet one more under-the-radar player in this season's draft, passed up by other organizations because of an injury he was hit with in high school.
I'm speaking, naturally, with respect to DeJuan Blair. You know, the guy that ninja flipped Hasheem Thabeet, this season's number 2 choice (in the draft), like he was a Raggedy Ann doll.
As a result, with the signings of Richard Jefferson and experienced players Antonio McDyess and Theo Ratliff, the Spurs are seeming even more fearsome on the wing, and less defenseless in the paint (when Duncan needs to be removed; whether for rest or to avert potential injury).
Call them old, call 'em uninteresting, even Eva Longoria-Parker is a fan of the black and silver. After all, can you chiefly go wrong with a team filled whole of battle-tested veterans?
