NBA Preseason Tips Tomorrow: Heat-Raptors Open Canada Games Slate

-


League-wide — the dress rehearsals tip tomorrow, and Canada gets the opening tip.

NBA preseason opens Saturday, Oct. 3, with the Miami Heat at the Toronto Raptors in Quebec City as part of NBA Canada Games — tip listed at 7 p.m. ET on NBA.com. Exhibitions run through mid-October before Opening Night later in the month. For the DFW desk, that clock also means Dusty May’s Mavericks are deep into camp combinations ahead of the China Games vs Houston on Oct. 9 in Macao.

Camps across the league are still sorting rotations, minutes, and new pieces. Tomorrow’s Quebec tip is the first real public dress rehearsal on the national board.

I think they bring out buried feelings of joy and happiness in people that don’t often get to see the light of day anymore. Folks are happier, kids are giddier, and teens are pressing their folks for gifts, even on Mother’s and Father’s Day. But my favorite holiday of them all is Halloween. And it has absolutely nothing to do with costumes and or candy but rather the date on the calendar it represents. October 31st signifies the start of the basketball regular season! Either your team has one game under it's belt, or is preparing for game one or is glorifying a local television broadcast with fun Halloween graphics heading into and out of commercials. The 2013-2014 NBA season kicks off two days in advance of trick-or-treating with national broadcasts coming on October 29th put October in the rearview and gear up for the season ahead.

Lamar Odom: Flesh and Blood

by Matt Silverston Say what you want about Lamar Odom, and go ahead and criticize his lifestyle and the choices he's made, but I will never hesitate to stand up for those human beings who suffer from addiction and mental illness. Given that Odom's story as well as his whereabouts are uncertain and up-in-the-air at this time, the biggest issue at stake here is so much more than money, a reality TV drama, or a basketball hoop. His future livelihood as a healthy, spirited human being is under attack and in immediate jeopardy.
