NBA: 5 Must Watch Games in the First Week of the season

The first week of the NBA season is like the Holiday season for a lot of NBA fans. Lots of reuniting with old friends and family — maybe seeing friends again in your section at your local NBA teams games, or maybe just reuniting with the guys you haven’t seen since spring like Blake Griffin, Dwyane Wade or Kahwi Leonard — but also it is a time of seeing new faces in new places. Who doesn’t want to watch LeBron’s first game as a Cavalier, Chandler Parsons’s first game as a Maverick or Andrew Wiggins’s first game in Minnesota?

The first week of the NBA season is coming up this week, and to get you ready, I picked five games that are must watch from the first week’s slate.

Let us know in the comments below what games you will be watching this week and who you think will win in each game! And happy return of the NBA season, everyone!

Note — I only looked at games from the first night of NBA action, Tuesday, October 28th, to Saturday, November 1st.
