Quote: Taking yet another step toward their first official NBA season, Oklahoma City has found a name for their basketball team. The new team will be named the Oklahoma City Thunder.
Thunder? Better than the Thundercats which was previously rumored.

Quote: Kobe Bryant & Co. plus Bynum in the first two months of the 2007-08 season equaled the top team in the Western Conference. Kobe & Co. plus Pau Gasol in the second half of the season equaled the Western Conference championship. Therefore, Kobe & Co. plus Gasol and Bynum should equal NBA champs, right?
ESPN's J.A. Adande analyzes the Lakers' upcoming season with a healthy Bynum added to the Bryant-Gasol powerhouse.

We'll finally get to see last season's #1 pick Greg Oden this year, now that his knee has recovered. The Blazers should have a really decent team.
Quoted: Oden’s return should push the Trail Blazers into playoff contention for the first time since 2003, and perhaps into title contention in the near future. Coming out of Ohio State, Oden was viewed as a once-in-a-generation center, a skilled, powerful big man who could dominate the paint for the next decade.

Quoted: In the ORANGE COUNTY REGISTER, Marcia C. Smith reports "History lends the Lakers, who are down 3-2 in the best-of-7 NBA Finals, the word never. Only eight teams in NBA history have rallied from a 3-1 deficit to win a seven-game playoff series, but no team has ever done it to win an NBA championship.

Lakes sweep the first round.
Quoted: After consecutive seasons of frustrating playoff exits against Phoenix, along with a non-playoff hiccup in 2004-05, the Lakers advanced beyond the first round for the first time since 2004. They hadn't swept a playoff series since beating New Jersey in the 2002 NBA Finals.
