Lets talk basketball - Nba is back

Hello everyone.
Nba is back . New season started around 20 days ago. Teams played 11-12 games already. I will try to go over some teams in the west and in the east.
There were some interesting trades and teams that are trying to figure it out.
Couple of interesting new formed teams and some of teams that were just almost same as last year.
Do you follow basketball and Nba and what do you have favorite team?

We can start with West.

Denver Nuggets ( 9 - 2 )
At the moment two top teams are Denver (9 - 2) and Dallas (9 - 3)
Denver is last year champion and their squad is good. With Jokic , Murray and rest of team that is together long time they are very good team with all parts in the place . Jokic is averaging 30 points 13.9 rebounds and 8.4 assits.
One of MVP runners.

Dallas Mavericks ( 9 - 3 )
Second team in the west atm. With Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving . Offensive side of Dallas is very good. With Doncic and Irving this team is can score at will. Doncic averages 30.7 points, 7.8 rebounds and 8.1 assists. Also MVP candidate so far.

Phoenix Suns ( 5 - 6 )
The team that is interesting to me. First reason is fellow Bosnian Jusuf Nurkic. This year he was traded to Suns from Portland which is in rebuilding mode. Suns now have big three. Kevin Durant, Devin Booker and Bradley Beal are three superstars that will carry this team. They can score easily. And not all three of them have to score in order to win. So far due to injuries it was mostly Kevin Durant playing and Beal and Booker were injured and did no play together. Last game Booker is back and they won against Minnesota and ended their 7 games win streak. Grayson Allen and Eric Gordon are new additions to the team as well. They will be good second unit. They played well so far. Jusuf Nurkic will have a bit different role since most shots will be taken by big three. He is willing passer and assist numbers are showing that.
Interesting team to follow. If they work this out they can are championship level team.

Los Angeles Lakers ( 6 - 6 )
Los Angeles Lakers with Lebron James are team to watch as well. With Antony Davis and Lebron they can play with anyone. Dangelo Russel is there as well. Austin Reaves is playing well. They will need maybe some more parts to this team so there can be some trades during trade period.

Golden State Warriors ( 6 - 6 )
Team with Steph Curry can not be taken lightly. They are getting older as team but they are long time together. They are ( 6 - 6 ) this season.

LA Clippers ( 3 - 7 )
Harden is newes addition to Kawai and Paul George. So far they did not played well with Harden but time will tell. Westbrook is also new addition this season. Many good names and now lets see how it plays out.

Sacramento Kings (6 - 4)
They have good team as well. Sabonis and Fox are playing really well. Fox averages 30 points per game and Sabonis 19.1 points 12.8 rebounds and 7.3 assits.

Oklahoma City Thunder (7 - 4)
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander with 29.3 points is number one option for Thunder. Chet Holmgren is rookie who plays good so far and everyone is watching how he will adapt to Nba. So far so good. They are 5th in the West atm with7 wins and 4 loss.

Houston Rockets ( 6 - 3 )
I dont know much about Rockets. So far they are good and are on 4th place in west. Alperen Sengun plays good at center. Fred VanVleet, Dilon Brook and Jalen Green are reason why they are at 4th place in standings.

Minnesota Timberwolves (8 - 3)
They were on 7 games winning streak before Suns won last game against them. Karl Antony Towns and Anthony Edwards who plays top notch basketball this season are reason for their success this year. They are at 3rd place in standings. Rudy Gober and Mike Conly are important parts of this team.

San Antonio Spurs ( 3 - 8 )
Have to mention San Antonio. With their first pick this year they drafted Victor Wembanyama. Big potential and we will see how he develops as player in Nba.

New Orleans Pelicans ( 5 - 6 )
They have good names such as Zion, Ingram, McCollum. All three of them average more than 20 points per game. There is nice basketball in New Orleans.

Memphis Grizzlies ( 2 - 9 ), Portland Trail Blazers ( 3 -8 ) and Utah Jazz ( 4 - 7 )
are rest teams in the west.

East in next post
