G'Day NBA fans, the first week of the NBA Preseason has kicked off nicely, with a number of teams finally getting that chance to put on show their new styles and rosters, and to practice their new systems. But on top of all of that, this week has seen the return of a number of premier NBA players, all of which beginning where they left off.
Names like Carmelo Anthony, Kevin Durant, Paul George, Chris Bosh, Kobe Bryant have all taken to the court in their preseason games after recovering from lengthy injuries, putting up some pretty All-Star-like stats and showing why they are in fact, some of the best players in the league. In addition players like Kevin Love and Kyrie Irving still due back soon.
Paul George has been an extremely great comeback story, after breaking - well snapping - his leg in the summer before last season, PG, donning his new number 13 in his most recent game ended with 32 points on a prolific 10/16 shooting. It is certainly good for the NBA and fans to have him back on court.
In addition to this Carmelo Anthony, Chris Bosh, and Kevin Durant all had strong performances for their respective teams and i'm sure their best is definitely still yet to come. Kobe struggled in his first performance in the limited minutes that he received, however his second game was much stronger, which shows positive signs.
Don't forget, this is only the preseason, so teams are still very rusty and they are just trying to figure out the kinks and new additions to their rosters. It is going to be one exciting season.
