Cooperman NBA 2013-14 Preview

(The NBA's logo)

  The NBA season tips off tonight. 30 teams begin the march for glory and only one team can win it all next June. But which team did the NBA Commissioner's office choose to win this year? Here's my picks.

1. Miami Heat - Sure, everyone loves a winner and they have a bunch of famous guys. The Heat will sell tickets and they will sell shirts. Also, Miami is a fun city to visit. David Stern would be a fool to overlook the Miami Heat when he decides this year's NBA Championship.

2. Los Angeles Clippers - Watch out for the red-shirted stepchild of the NBA. In Blake Griffin, the Clippers also have a guy whose name I know. I even know what he looks like. With the Lakers supposedly being sucky now, the boys back in the New York 5th Avenue office simply must consider this major market team when selecting the big winner.

3. Chicago Bulls - Speaking of major markets, the United States Census Bureau estimates Chicago's metro population at 9.8 million. That's a lot of people who could be watching car and beer commercials this June. You better believe that Stern and his cronies mull over the dollars and the Bulls before they determine the 2014 NBA Champs.

4. San Antonio Spurs - I don't know anything about basketball but the San Antonio Spurs come in at #3 on the current ESPN NBA Rankings. Must be for some reason and Spot #4 seems like a safe slot to hedge.

5. New Orleans Pelicans - Okay, I admit this one's wishful thinking. Maybe the NBA suits up on the 19th floor won't award New Orleans the NBA Championship this season but I like that they changed their name to Pelicans. Many people think pelicans are meek, little waterbirds. Not true. They're monsters.

Personalized M&M's

Here's a tip for you. They won't allow the word "poopoo" for personalized M&M's but they do allow the word "oodood".

My 2013 NFL Draft Breakdown

Barkevious Mingo, LB (Cleveland Browns)

I didn't pay much attention. I mistakenly thought Redskins' 6th round pick, Bacarri Rambo, had the coolest name in the 2013 NFL Draft, held two months ago at Radio City Music Hall in New York. Wrong. I just learned about LSU's Barkevious Mingo, picked 6th overall by the Cleveland Browns. He wins. Say his name out loud. It's metrical, it's lyrical, and it sounds real, real mean. I like Barkevious Mingo. Coolest name in the 2013 NFL Draft.

Flag Day

Flag of Iqaluit

Today is Flag Day. I think my favorite flag is the Iqaluit flag. Iqaluit is the capital of Canada's newest territory, Nunavut. The Iqaluit flag has 3 whales, what looks to be a glacier, and even the name Iqaluit on it. Nunavut's official coat of arms includes a narwhal but today is Flag Day.
