Online betting fans were treated to plenty of excitement during the 2009 NBA season. For once the predictable league provided betting online fans with some intrigue and top notch competition in the post season. But with all the off season trading and free agent signing going on NBA online sports betting seems like it will be even better in the 2010 internet betting season.
Online internet aficionados have seen all kinds of power shifts taking place in the world’s top basketball league and it will be very interesting to see how this all plays out in terms of division, conference and finals competition. So far the player movement, in the eyes of most betting online pundits has resulted in a stockpiling of talent in the East. Last year online betting fans saw the Magic wiped out by the Western Conference champ LA Lakers in the finals and no doubt the Eastern teams are loading up in order to give the champs a run for their money in the upcoming season.
Orlando, which has defeated handily in the online wagering finale, will look significantly different in the 2010 betting on the internet season. Gone is team leader Hedo Turkoglu. Replacing him in the line is all-star Vince Carter. Carter brings them scoring, but will not provide the leadership or all around game that made Hedo so valuable to this online wagering contender.
The big news so far in the online betting world was Shaq’s arrival in Cleveland. No guarantees that he’ll bring a NBA title to the Cavs, but the team has nothing to lose and gains a good pick and roll defender. Toronto has also made a splash in the NBA world of wagering online by signing Turkoglu who will pair with all-star Chris Bosch. With this move the team automatically elevated itself into the list of Eastern internet betting contenders.
The former NBA online betting champ Boston Celtics who were crippled by injuries last season, have also made a big upgrade. The team recently signed forward Rasheed Wallace, who’s past his prime but could be the missing piece needed for this team to add another internet betting title.
The most exciting part of all this wheeling and dealing is the fact the summer is still young and there could be plenty of more interesting moves before the online wagering season with the NBA begins.
