Northwest Division NBA Tickets

Born from the ashes of the old Midwest Division and merged with pieces of the Pacific Division, the Northwest Division officially opened for business in 2005. Uniting the West Coast and the Heartland, the Northwest Division brings together the Denver Nuggets, Utah Jazz, Portland Trailblazers, Minnesota Timberwolves, and the newly minted Oklahoma City team (formally the Seattle Supersonics). All with storied legacies themselves, the Northwest Division teams will have a new page of NBA history to write with a fresh division.

If the first four years of its existence are any indication, the Northwest Division will be one of parity and variety. The Northwest Division Title has been won by three separate teams in four years. The defensive power of the Utah Jazz gave them two-straight Northwest Title wins. Even though the Utah Jazz are the division champs, the Denver Nuggets and Portland Trailblazers are nipping at their heels.

A wide variety of styles is also present in the Northwest Division and will make for many interesting match ups. With two scoring forces in Carmelo Anthony and Allen Iverson the Denver Nuggets run a wide-open offense. In contrast the Utah Jazz rely on tough defense and ball control. Already on the rise, the Portland Trailblazers will get an enormous boost from the arrival of Greg Oden from the injured list. Young players in Kevin Love and Kevin Durant will be asked to carry the Minnesota Timberwolves and Oklahoma City team respectively.

With a great mix of youth and experience, the Northwest Division has the ability to breed a new generation of champions. With many All-Stars already in place and future All-Stars ready to emerge, the development of the Northwest Division will be an important step for basketball. Fast paced and full of evenly matched teams, the Northwest Division has a bright future ahead of it. Order your Northwest Division NBA tickets from OnlineTickets.com today!
