Houston Rockets at Los Angeles Clippers
休斯敦火箭客场对阵洛杉矶快船
Jan. 15,10:30 p.m. ET(TNT)
美国东部时间1月15日晚10:30（TNT）
This game could also be counted as a "return" to keep an eye on, as new Rockets guard Chris Paul comes back to play in Los Angeles, where he played his last six seasons with the Clippers. And these teams also have a genuine rivalry, including when the Rockets bumped the Clippers out in the 2015 Western Conference semifinals. Either way, these Western Conference powers will battle for pecking order in the West.
火箭新控卫克里斯-保罗在为快船队效力了六年之后重返洛杉矶比赛，因此本场比赛可谓是一场值得关注的“回归”之战。两支球队过往恩怨不断，其中就包括2015年西部半决赛火箭队将快船队淘汰出局。无论如何，两支球队都会为了西部上游排名而努力奋斗。
Oklahoma City Thunder at Indiana Pacers
俄克拉荷马雷霆客场对阵印第安纳步行者
Dec. 13, 7 p.m. ET (ESPN)
美国东部时间12月13日晚7:00（ESPN）
Much like Jimmy Butler in Chicago, Paul George spent his first six seasons in Indiana, becoming one of the NBA's best two-way players and making four All-Star teams. With George one year away from being able to test free agency, the Pacers moved PG to OKC, where George will pair with Kia MVP winner Russell Westbrook to form one of the NBA's most high-powered duos. With this game, George makes his first return trip to Indiana since the trade.
同吉米-巴特勒一样，保罗-乔治在印第安纳度过了自己生涯的前六个赛季，期间成为了联盟里最杰出的攻守兼备的球员之一并四次入选全明星。由于保罗-乔治距离成为自由球员仅剩一年的时间，步行者将其交易至俄克拉荷马。在那里，他将与新科最有价值球员拉塞尔-维斯布鲁克成为队友，组成联盟里最令人闻风丧胆的双人组之一。本场比赛将会是保罗-乔治被交易后首次回到印第安纳面对老东家的比赛。
Minnesota Timberwolves at Chicago Bulls
明尼苏达森林狼客场对阵芝加哥公牛
Feb. 9, 8 p.m. ET (ESPN)
美国东部时间2月9日晚8:00（ESPN）
Jimmy Butler played for the Chicago Bulls for his first six seasons, becoming one of the NBA's best two-way players and making three All-Star teams. The rebuilding Bulls moved Butler to Minnesota, where he'll team with former Chicago coach Tom Thibodeau and former teammate Taj Gibson to try and lift a young Wolves roster into playoff contention.
吉米-巴勒特生涯前六个赛季均效力于芝加哥公牛队，在此期间，他成为了联盟里最杰出的攻守兼备的球员之一并三次入选全明星。重建中的公牛队将巴特勒交易至明尼苏达。在那里，他将与前芝加哥公牛队主教练汤姆-锡伯杜和前队友泰-吉布森重聚，并带领年轻的森林狼队争夺季后赛席位。
New Orleans Pelicans at Sacramento Kings
新奥尔良鹈鹕客场对阵萨克拉门托国王
Oct. 26, 10:30 p.m. ET (TNT)
美国东部时间10月26日晚10:30 （TNT）
The Sacramento Kings made a bold move literally during the 2017 All-Star Game in New Orleans, trading All-Star center DeMarcus Cousins to the Pelicans. While Cousins wasn't thrilled to leave Sacramento behind, he hasn't had the chance to play against the Kings since the trade was made. As he recently told ESPN's The Undefeated, Cousins clearly has this game circled on his calendar.
2017年新奥尔良全明星赛期间，萨克拉门托国王队作出了一个大胆的决定，将全明星中锋德马库斯-考辛斯交易至鹈鹕队。虽然考辛斯对离开萨克拉门托感到不快，但自交易完成以来，他还没有机会对阵自己的老东家国王队。近日，他向ESPN的The Undefeated坦言，已经在日历上圈注了这场比赛。
"I can't wait. Oh, my God. I can't wait. I'm praying it's the first game. I just got a lot to get off my chest. I can't wait" Hopefully having it as the fifth game will suffice.
“我已经迫不及待了，天哪，我真的迫不及待了。真希望这是新赛季的第一场比赛。我对本场比赛的期待真是一言难尽。我已经迫不及待了。就算是第五场比赛那也不错。”
Denver Nuggets at Atlanta Hawks
丹佛掘金客场对阵亚特兰大老鹰
Oct. 27, 7:30 p.m. ET (NBA League Pass)
美国东部时间10月27日晚7:30（NBA League Pass）
While Jimmy Butler and Paul George leaving the Eastern Conference to ply their trade out West have drawn plenty of attention, another two-way forward who belongs in that conversation is Paul Millsap, who left the rebuilding Hawks in free agency for a lucrative deal with the Nuggets.
随着吉米-巴特勒和保罗-乔治离开东部被交易至西部，西部已经吸引了大批人的目光。该对话中涉及的另一位攻守俱佳的球员便是保罗-米尔萨普。他作为一名自由球员离开了重建中的老鹰队，与掘金队签订了一纸报酬丰厚的合约。
While Millsap's return to The ATL might not be as contentious as that of some other NBA stars, Millsap was the best player on Atlanta's 60-win team just two seasons ago.
虽然保罗-米尔萨普重返亚特兰大一战也许不及其他球星那般轰动，但在两个赛季之前，米尔萨普是那支取得常规赛60胜的老鹰队阵中最杰出的球员。
Boston Celtics at Utah Jazz
波士顿凯尔特人客场对阵犹他爵士
March 28, 9:30 p.m. ET (ESPN)
美国东部时间3月28日晚9:30（ESPN）
While an influx of talent went from East to West, the Utah Jazz saw their first-time All-Star Gordon Hayward go the other way and head East to sign with Boston. This will be Hayward's first game back in Salt Lake City since his departure.
在大批球星纷纷离开东部涌向西部的同时，犹他爵士队却见证了球队当家球星戈登-海沃德（一次全明星）反其道而行之，加盟东部的凯尔特人。本场比赛将会是海沃德离开后首次回到盐湖城的比赛。
Brooklyn Nets at Los Angeles Lakers
布鲁克林篮网客场对阵洛杉矶湖人
Nov. 3, 10:30 p.m. ET (NBA League Pass)
美国东部时间11月3日晚10:30 （NBA League Pass）
It's not a cross-country rivalry so much as it is two teams that are, at least for now, linked. Over the offseason, the rebuilding Nets traded All-Star big man Brook Lopez back to the West Coast, where he'll help Lonzo Ball space the floor in the rebuilding Lakers' wide open attack.
两支球队（洛杉矶湖人队，布鲁克林篮网队）的对抗不能算是宿敌之战，因为直到现在，两队才有了些许联系。在休赛期期间，重建中的篮网队将全明星大个子布鲁克-洛佩兹交易至西海岸（洛杉矶湖人队）。在那里，他将在场上协助郎佐-鲍尔拉开空间进攻。
In return, the Lakers sent the Nets former No. 2 overall pick D'Angelo Russell, who gets a chance for career redemption running the Nets' uptempo offense.
与此同时，湖人队送出了前榜眼球员丹吉洛-拉塞尔。他将指挥篮网队的快速进攻，对其而言是一次职业生涯的补偿。
