Kobe Bryant in a shortened season
Los Angeles Lakers future hall of famer Kobe Bryant has inspired the world of NBA with his incredible abilities, tremendous basketball skill and unique game-play for fifteen years and he still continues to do so is an awe-inspiring
fashion.
Although Bryant’s agility and strength, which he once had coming into the professional league, has started to diminish due to aging body and knee injuries. However, Kobe will be extremely lethal and dangerous in the next season
as he doesn’t have to carry the tiredness of a complete 82-game season.
Kobe Bryant is regarded as one of the most dangerous players in the league and when Los Angeles Lakers superstar will be playing a shortened season, his game-play will become even formidable which will make him almost impossible
to stop.

as the two-time defending champions and the defeat snatched the hopes of clinching a three-peat for the second time.

Future of Chicago Bulls
There is no doubt that Chicago Bulls 23-year-old point guard Derrick Rose has proven very early in his career that he will go down as one of the greatest players in NBA. However, Rose’s contribution in the next season for the Bulls
is one of the most important thing which is keeping the basketball viewers especially Bulls fans is a state of amusement as they believe Derrick is the player who can re-live the legacy of Bulls.
Since the Michael Jordan Championship era, even clinching a play-off berth had become rather a difficult task for the team. However, with the epic emergence of Rose in the last season, Chicago Bulls became the top team of the league
as they finished with the best overall record in the regular season.
The experience was the only thing that came short for the Bulls in the Eastern Conference finals against Miami Heat where Chicago’s tremendous play-off run ended. Now, when Derrick Rose has gained a significant experience with
the defeat and the team is determined to help Rose is every way possible, the future of Chicago Bulls looks very bright.
LeBron James
Last but not the least, seeing Miami Heat’s superstar LeBron James in any season always has its own excitement. However the James appearance in the 2011-2012 season has some special significance.
There is no second opinion that James is the best active player is NBA at the moment. And at the same time he is most hatred player as well. In the beginning of the 2010-2011 season when LeBron shifted his talent to the South Beach
in pursuit of an NBA title, his former city Cleveland Cavaliers triggered a hatred campaign against the two-time MVP James which still continues. That is why many people never wanted him to win and was very happy when Miami came up two victories short from
winning it all.
The dramatic defeat in the last season will only make LeBron James stronger and more aggressive towards achieving his ultimate goal. This is why one of the most exciting and interesting aspect of the next season is to see James
play.
