NBA Preview: Best Games of the Season Until Christmas

During the offseason, we had moves no one saw coming and obvious moves. LeBron James and Chris Bosh joining Dwyane Wade and the Heat, Amare Stoudimire going to New York and Carlos Boozer heading to Chicago.

And throughout the year, we will see plenty of these teams against good teams. Throughout the year, we will see the Lakers, Heat, Thunder, Magic, Bulls, Celtics, Knicks, Mavericks, Spurs and other teams on national TV.

Here are the games to look out for before this upcoming Christmas in the NBA.

Opening Night: Heat @ Celtics TNT, Suns @ Trail Blazers, Rockets @ Lakers TNT

Three great games highlight opening night on Tuesday. The Heat make their anticipated debut against the Eastern Conference champion Celtics. The Suns make their post-Amare debut against the high expectations of the Trail Blazers. And Yao Ming makes his return against the two time NBA champion Lakers. It should be a great opening night for the NBA.
