Still Love This Game?

Finally! The long-delayed NBA season tipped off last week. How it will end is anybody's guess. With Michael Jordan out of the picture and many of the other Chicago Bulls switching to other cities, every team now has a shot at the title.

Teams will play 50 games in 12 weeks. That means players won't have much time to rest between games.

If the Houston Rockets can keep up with the intense schedule, they just may be this year's Dream Team. Charles Barkley, Hakeem Olajuwon and former Bull Scottie Pippen have their eyes on the title.

Who do you think will come out on top?
