Opening Night is Wednesday October 27th against the Houston Rockets at home at the Roaracle.
It's the showdown we've been waiting for. Yao Ming vs. Jeremy Lin. Asia vs Asian America. 1st generation vs. 2nd generation. Old school vs new school. Okay, even I'll admit that's a (BIG) stretch, but I honestly can't wait till opening night.
