There are plenty of good games to choose from. Jabari Parker and Andrew Wiggins will make their debuts. The Washington Wizards will be in Miami to take on the Heat in what could be a very nice budding rivalry. Plus, the Oklahoma City Thunder will be taking on the Portland Trail Blazers in the first regular season game without Kevin Durant.

However, it is the New York Knicks and Chicago Bulls who get the nod here. Star point guard Derrick Rose will be making his return to the court. The Bulls also added Pau Gasol, Nikola Mirotic and Doug McDermott in the offseason, leading many to believe they are a legitimate contender. The Knicks will be without Tyson Chandler but they have  made a serious upgrade at point guard in Jose Calderon. Under president Phil Jackson and head coach Derek Fisher, they will be running the triangle offense and it will be interesting to see how Anthony and his teammates adjust to the new system.
