I don't know what the Lakers and Heat, two very veteran teams, will even look like seven(!) weeks from now.

On the plus side, I absolutely cannot wait to see what movies we make. Trades/extensions/etc are said to be allowed starting on the 16th, which is 2 days before the draft.

Definitely sucks for the Lakers and Heat. No argument there.

But, the vast majority of NBA players have had MORE off season than usual, all things considered. I'm sure many of them are itching to get started.
