So, I take it you haven't seen OKC without WB much then, have you? Reggie was supposed to help carry the load, but he's currently gimpy with TMAC back disease.

Well Heat are officially terrible this year. So should the Heat trade Lebron while they can still get something for him? Doubt anyone will take his shitty contract if they wait too long

Seriously WTF is with Philly. Williams-Carter tearing up the Lebron and Rose? Although I must say, as a UNLV fan, I find it hilarious Anthony Bennett still hasn't made a fg. 0-12 on the year

Still way too early in the season to make any real judgement calls, but I guess that doesn't stop people from doing it year after year.

I didn't expect Iguodala to have such a profound affect on the Warriors - both defensively and offensively. The chemistry between the starting five is uncanny.

The bench is kind of weak though. Harrison Barnes needs to get healthy.

I think the Warriors right now have about as good a mix of players as you could possibly have without having a bonafide superstar. Not really sure if that can get you all the way in today's league, and hey maybe Curry is on the cusp of being that guy, but they are gonna be a lot of fun to watch. About as much offense as you can possibly desire (the one lack still being a guy that can get to the rim consistently) and two starters in Iguodala and Bogut who are both all-defensive NBA types while being completely unselfish on the offensive end. They'll have a shot to make the conference finals / finals IF they can manage to stay healthy (the big if as always).

It's exciting how much Thompson seems to have grown over the summer, seems like a much more confident player. I don't think depth will be an issue once Barnes and Ezeli get back, and even before that I'm not too worried about it. Iguodala isn't going to hit 7 threes ever again lol, but the starting lineup is destroying teams right now with efficiency. Superb passing from the 3-5 positions + 2 of the best shooters on the planet = joy.

Pretty impressive start from Steph, but not like I expect him to continue to take 9 threes a game and drain half of them.

I think Steph is already good enough to be the #1 guy on a team with other good players. His contribution is right up there with Westbrook and Rose which puts him in that "great PGs that aren't CP3" category. Your guys biggest concern is probably Bogut's health.

I'd definitely put Rose in CP3's level, assuming he's the same player as before the injury

He's up there, but I'm taking CP3 every day of the week and twice on Sunday's.

On another note, Paul George is turning into an absolute super-star. Love his game.

Monta Ellis is playing well so far this season, and Dallas is murdering a terrible (TERRIBLE) Lakers team. Steve Nash... man, one of my all time favorites but he's painful to watch right now.

Still a phenomenal talent at his age, but it's pretty sad watching him hang around for a desperate attempt at a ring.

The Dirk/Monta two man game is pretty great so far. Monta has two games with 11-14 shooting, don't think he's ever been that efficient.

Not even close, watch the games - Mayo was only good while Dirk was out injured and he was the #1 option.
