Preseason Recap (will it matter?)

Well, here it is, The NBA preseason is finally over. As NBA fans, we were always told that the preseason didn't mean anything. Its really hard to tell if the preseason really matters, because there are so many teams that do bad in the preseason. Then, some of those same teams that did bad in the preseason end up having a great record by the time playoffs roll around. By the end of the 2013-2014 preseason, the San Antonio Spurs had one of the worst records. The playoffs came around and The Spurs became the 2013-2014 NBA champions. Most people would argue that in the preseason the starters aren't used as much. If that's the case, then the Spurs in theory should have had one of the best preseason records as well. Everybody in the league knows that the Spurs have one of the best benches in the league. This year, The defending champions only won one game in the preseason. Also, many of the playoff teams from last year had a losing record in this years preseason. In my opinion, the preseason means something; but it doesn't mean much. I believe the preseason is just a stage to get players warmed up for the regular season. I could be wrong. The only thing us as fans can do is sit back and watch.

Until next time, See ya!
