There is a lot of interest about the 2012-2013 NBA season with all of the free agent moves that happened in the off-season. Teams aquired up some key players from the pool of athletes left unsigned after last year's season and made multiple team trades to acquire others. Mentioning all of the signings will be virtually impossible, so touching on the top 4 will be the goal for now.
Steve Nash - Nash has played for the Suns for the past 8 years of his 16 year career. He is regarded as one of the elite point guards in the league today and possibly one of the best to ever play the game in his position. In each of the last 8 seasons he is averaged over 10 assists per game and scored 15 points per game too. He was left unsigned at the end of the 2011-2012 season and was picked up by the Los Angeles Lakers to play along side of Superstar SG, Kobe B ryant.
Dwight Howard - The second biggest acquisition of the off-season also made by the LA Lakers in Dwight Howard. Howard has never had less then a 10 rebound per game average in any of his 8 seasons since he has been in the league. Leaving the only team he has ever played for, the Orlando Magic, in a trade for Andrew Bynum and some key draft picks, Howard hopes the Lakers will be a " dream team " like the Heat have had in recent years. Howard, Nash, and Bryant will be in pursuit of a ring next year with the power they are going to display .
Jason Terry - To the surprise of quite a few, SG Jason Terry wasn't resigned by Dallas and was snatched up by the Celtics this year. Terry had been with the Mavericks for 8 years and appeared to play well with Dirk and the crew . He signed a 3 year deal with the Celtics on July 17th and will be in Boston this season.
Ray Allen - As if the Heat needed more of a star-studded lineup, Ray Allen was signed by Miami in the off-season. The Celtics chose to let him go and pick up before-mentioned SG, Jason Terry, from the Maverick's unsigned list. The added experience of Allen will most lcertainly be the front man the Heat have been searching for to go along with the big three, Wade, James, and Bosh.
All of these off-season acquisitions will make a huge impact on the upcoming season. The Lakers have put together the team that Kobe wanted in order for him to battle the Miami Heat and make a run at the championship once again. Seeing these players in new uniforms will be quite different, but may be what the league needed to be more fascinating then ever.
