NBA Blog Previews: Southwest Division Recap

Here are the final NBA previews.  I am very excited for the season to begin, and especially interested in seeing how my Miami Heat fare this year.  But let’s talk Northwest Division for a minute.  It seems like every year the San Antonio Spurs are in contention.  I don’t think this year will be any different.  All the main pieces are back, but I am focused on how Tiago Splitter adds to the team.  I have been following him for a while; I think he has big upside.
