Now that NBA 07-08 season is basically over...
Needless to say, this season will probably go down in history as one of the best... but could it be the cake of talking about the greatest the NBA has to offer?
22 game winning streak by the Rockets that came out of nowhere.
Re-emergence of the Lakers and Celtics out of no man's land last year. They're the heads of their respective conferences.
Revitalization of the Hornets and CP3 surpassing both Nash and Kidd as the best PG in the league.

A Western conference where 48 wins won't get you a playoff position, and 10 teams have more than 40 wins.
An Eastern conference where having more loss than wins somehow gets u a playoff position :O
A relatively strong draft class, including the likes of Durant, Horford, and Mike Conley.
Multiple block-buster trades that shatters the long-standing label of "NBA = No Balls Association." A totally unthinkable and unexpected Shaq trade that was highly criticized but turned out for the better. Kidd finally traded away from the Nets but results in an unexpected 11 game losing streak against the West's best. Pau Gasol for Kwame Brown and others. Mike Bibby to the Hawks, Big Ben and Wally World to Cleveland.
One of the better dunk contests of modern all-star game history, including superman Dwight Howard, and the non-dunk.
3 potential MVP candidates at this point in the season with one of the most competitive races for the award in history (CP3, Kobe, KG).
Numerous record tying or setting moments like Utah's home court winning streak.
