LeBron James will live in New York but will play in Philadelphia. The new star of the Philadelphia 76ers, who will debut his 24th NBA season on Tuesday, will make a daily journey equivalent to going from Barcelona to Lleida. The forward will cover the distance by helicopter to avoid the dreaded traffic jams on the East Coast of the United States. The eccentricity has generated a flood of comments from fans. Some see it as practical, but the majority criticize the ecological footprint that he will generate every day he has to go to practice. Others remember the unfortunate Kobe Bryant, who died in a plane crash.

The NBA got underway last night with a two-game series. The Oklahoma City Thunder are the favorites to retain their championship, which is also aspired to by the Houston Rockets, Los Angeles Lakers, and New York Knicks, among others. The Brooklyn Nets, led by Badalona native Jordi Fernández, are the youngest team in the competition, and are in the midst of a rebuilding process.
