The NBA is optimistic about who will win the championship this year.

This summer, the Spurs recruited soldiers everywhere, and not only got the All-Star small forward richard jefferson, but also got the former Pistons defense expert antonio mcdyess. The strength has been improved unprecedentedly. For next season, Spurs coach Popovich said that everything is a failure except the championship. The spurs always seem to turn decay into magic. They traded three veterans who had passed the peak of their career for Richard Jefferson, a young forward with excellent athletic ability. At the same time, they also found power forward antonio mcdyess. Although he is one year older, McDyess is still very efficient on the court. He is a model gentleman both on and off the court.

Although there was no first draft in this year's draft, they selected some great players in the second round. Specifically, that person is DeJuan Blair of the University of Pittsburgh-the best rebounder and insider beast in college basketball. Blair will definitely be a legacy in this year's draft if he can keep his knees healthy all the time. On the whole, the Spurs have greatly improved the team's strength and become the favourites to win the championship again.

Popovich talked about the Spurs' new season in an interview with NBA official website reporter. Popovich is ambitious. "If we don't win the championship, then I will be fired!" Popovich said. Obviously Popovich has a point. The former Trident has become the Big Five, and I'm afraid few players in the league have this lineup. Last season, the Spurs suffered from injuries and Duncan was getting old. He urgently needs a qualified replacement. Now Jefferson can reduce Ginobili's scoring burden, and McDyess can reduce Duncan's defensive pressure.

Of course, Popovich also said that keeping healthy is the first condition to win. "We can't find a better lineup than this. For us, health is the first priority, so that Duncan and Manu can stay healthy. " Spurs coach gregg popovich said.
