Time for a new one for the new season. Spooky, are you looking forward to the game?

I guess the mighty Miami won't be going 82-0 after all

Why, whats happened ?





**Edit, just seen they got beat last night, I thought one of the stars had got injured or something with your comment. We will still win the Championship though, and with the Dolphins winning the NFL this year, it will be the year of MIAMI !!**

Too much hype and too much expectation on the heat. Add to the mix how pumped up teams like the lakers and celtics will feel about basically been ignored as potential champions by some sections of the media and I'm pretty confident that Lebron will still be waiting for his first ring this time next year.



As for the dolphins, I'd just settle for ensuring the jets don't win it all. I was hopeful about the phins chances at the start of the season, but losing our first 3 home games, 2 against division rivals has put those feelings to bed.

I am yes, but I'm kind of torn about it because I'm missing the World Series opener and Lincecum is pitching.



No expectations from this season. We'll lose plenty more than we win. But I am curious to see who, if anyone, steps up. On the plus side, it wont be difficult to get cheap tickets to Raps games this season.

Just managed to watch the bulls @ thunder from the other night.



A great game that was played at exceptional pace considering it was the season opener. I'm not too discouraged that the bulls started with a loss, the thunder are a great team especialy at home and Rose again showed that he could be ready to take his performances to the next level.



Really looking forward to the magic @ heat tonight.

Well for the first time, I'm going to make an effort to follow the NBA this year. Go Clippers!

Be half decent this year with Blake Griffin.

Are the games shown in the UK anywhere? ESPN i'm guessing........

Correct, but only 2 games a week. The Wednesday and Friday night ESPN games. Bulls@Celtics tonight.

Do you think that'll increase later on?

It didn't last season. They also have play off coverage, but I am pretty certain that that was also only 2 games a week until the finals where every game was covered.



If you get the full ESPN coverage on Sky then you will also get ESPN America that shows sports daily with brief highlights of each nights games as well as NBA Tonight about 3 times a week.



ESPN America will also have wall to wall coverage of college hoops all the way until March Madness and the championship game.



If you like US sports in general, then ESPN is a bargain at a tenner a month.
