As the season goes on, wear and tear take place on the bodies and that’s what we’re starting to see in the rookie class. Injuries along with resting in the active NBA schedule are becoming a common trend for this rookie class.
The road trip started off rough for the Miami Heat, who lost the first three games on the trip. After beating the Utah Jazz on Saturday, the Heat finished off the road trip with a win against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Led by Tyler Herro, the Heat picked up their scoring in the second half and were able to close the deal. With the victory, Miami moves to 9-5 for the season.
This game could’ve ended just like the past two games in Los Angeles. But, in the end, the Miami Heat were able to seal the deal.
The Ben Simmons era in Philadelphia is headed towards a messy end. The two sides have been far apart in building back their relationship since the Philadelphia 76ers got eliminated in the 2021 playoffs.
Far more surprises and stat lines than predicted. The bulk of the season is starting to begin and some teams are establishing themselves as playoff favorites while others are looking towards the lottery.
In recent days, the Boston Celtics have been linked to becoming the new recipient in the Ben Simmons drama. Brad Stevens and Daryl Morey have had conversations that would send disgruntled forward Simmons to the Celtics for a large haul.
Despite having control for long stretches, and many opportunities in overtime, the Heat couldn’t put the Los Angeles Lakers away. With huge production from their reserves, the Lakers were able to escape with a win. The loss puts Miami at 7-4 for the season.
This was not the start that the Atlanta Hawks had in mind coming off an appearance in the Eastern Conference Finals last season. Atlanta is off to a 4-7 start and has looked like a below-average team through the early part of this season.
At the beginning of the year, there was talk about how this rookie draft class could be one of the best, even drawing comparisons to the 2003 draft class. Through three weeks, they have lived up to expectations.
Historically, the Miami Heat never play well in Denver. Is it because of the altitude? Who knows.
The Boston Celtics are slumping to start the season. After a rehaul of the team’s roster under new Basketball of Operations leader Brad Stevens, the team is still looking like last year’s team.
After a week or so of NBA action, the season has shown us some surprises to start out. It is still too early in the season to make some definitive statements about teams, but the contenders and pretenders should start sorting themselves out.
