The first game of the season takes place in the early afternoon, with the Celtics going to Detroit and taking on the Pistons. Boston will look to figure out how they can get Paul George and Mitchell Robinson involved in the new-look offense. The Pistons were able to take the top spot in the East last season, but really didn’t make any significant additions in the offseason. They added John Collins to replace Tobias Harris.

Philadelphia is one of the teams with the brightest outlooks in the NBA. They have revamped their team with major additions. They traded for Jaylen Brown, a former NBA Finals MVP. Then they signed LeBron James as a free agent. Their starting five might be the best in the entire NBA. The Knicks are coming off winning an NBA championship, but they didn’t really make an addition to the team; they lost Mitchell Robinson. They do have the main five starters still on the roster, though.

The Oklahoma City Thunder are coming into the game without making too many additions to their roster. They added Aday Mara, who could be a big piece for their defense. The bench is still deep and one of the best in basketball. The Spurs fell short in the NBA Championship last season. Victor Wembanyama is looking to establish himself as the best player in the league and get over that hump. Tobias Harris was added to the team, but he is out for this game. The team is deep enough that it shouldn’t matter.
