2. The beginning
The NBA offseason consisted of a lot of super teams forming together.
Also a lot of superstars heading out west to dethrone or try to keep the Champs
from winning another title.
Meanwhile in the east teams are rebuilding and trying to get to the playoffs.
Jimmy Butler, Paul George, Carmelo Anthony and others went out west to
challenge the champs.
