The NBA Can't Put Teams in Premier Opening Night Slots

If the NBA knew on August 12th that Damien Lillard was going to be a member of the Miami Heat by October 24th by opening night, I bet we probably would have had a heat nuggets rematch. But the NBA doesn't know because no one knows and we'll get to the game so shortly. Like I'm not convinced, you know, bucks or Celtics in there. Sure, those should be good games in against any of those teams. And like the Sixers, you want to see James Harden in a fat suit? Because James Harden is like a traitor. They otherwise are just largely running it back this year. It's just not that exciting anymore.
