Hot Clicks: Adriana Lima; NBA preview; Halloween sports costumes
Tip-Off
The 2009-10 NBA season begins tonight with a four-game slate. Luckily, readers and bloggers have e-mailed me some links that preview the season, because I don't think I would've known otherwise. This may shock you, but right now, the Knicks aren't exactly getting much any buzz in New York. Anyway, Fansided.com uses our favorite Halloween candies to preview the upcoming season. Sportscape offers 60 suggestions for your fantasy basketball team name. And Bleacher Report has the 10 NBA WAGs to watch, which gives us a reason to check in with Adriana Lima.
