The 2017-18 NBA season starts tonight with what should be quite interesting.
First, Kyrie Irving and the Boston Celtics face Irving's former team, the Cleveland Cavaliers, in an 8pm ET showdown in Cleveland.
Irving was traded to Boston by Cleveland for the injured Isaiah Thomas this past offseason.
The second game of the night starts at 10:30pm ET, with James Harden and the Houston Rockets traveling to the Bay Area for a showdown vs. the reigning NBA Champion Golden State Warriors, where Golden State will begin their quest to repeat at NBA Finals Champions, and win their third final in the past four seasons.
Wednesday night sees an 11-game slate with the Brooklyn Nets opening their season in a 7pm ET start at the Indiana Pacers.
Thursday night has a 3-game slate in store, headlined by Carmelo Anthony and the Oklahoma City Thunder facing Melo's former team, the New York Knicks, in an 8pm ET start. Melo was traded to the Thunder by the Knicks during the NBA Preseason after several years as a Knick.
