They finished with the NBA&#8217;s best record and won the NBA Championship. It was the first of what fans hope is many for the core of Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>New York is trying to catch up with Boston and made a big move this offseason to do so. The front office acquired talented two-way forward Mikal Bridges, pairing him with fellow Villanova alumni Jalen Brunson.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then the Knicks went out and traded Julius Randle and other assets for Karl Anthony Towns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Boston is the rightful five-point favourite here but watch out for New York to take another leap this season after an eventful offseason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Minnesota Timberwolves vs. Los Angeles Lakers<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"cacheembed:97234\">Embed: #97234<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For better or for worse, the story headlining opening night for the Lakers will revolve around the James family as Bronny is rumoured to make his NBA debut earlier than most expected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>LeBron will be the oldest player in the NBA this season and he&#8217;s still among the elite. James led the USA Olympic Team to a gold medal this summer and was undoubtedly their best player.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Minnesota made headlines recently, too, with the aforementioned trade of Towns. Some argue the Wolves got better by completely turning the keys over the Anthony Edwards and adding better role players.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With all the question marks on both sides, this is surely to be exciting game to open the season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NBA opening night provides two exciting matchups.
