Early Season NBA Form

What are people's thoughts on the first couple of weeks of the NBA. The Celtics are off to their best start since No. 33 was in the line up. I know everyone thought thye would be contenders in the East but they certainly have flown out of the blocks.

The Rockets look the goods early too.

How about Chicago? 1-5
and Golden State? 0-5

How long will Sonics fans have to wait to see some rewards. Durant seems to be going OK but at 0-6 will they need another top 3 pick to be contenders in a few years?

Kobe and the Lakers - are they destined to finish 7-8 again and lose in the first round?

How about Bogut - there hasn't been much talk of him this year his numbers seem OK but is he getting better and can he be a future All Star?

I know its early but its still good to speculate.

Bogut got owned by Yao (stats wise) last game.
What about Denver, could be a dark horse?

Denver SHOULD be a dark horse but I'm yet to be convinced that their talented roster can translate to on court success.

Between Port Adelaide, The Redbacks, The 36ers, and now the Bulls, I don't think I want to follow sport anymore....

Garnett unstoppable at the moment for the Celtics!

Yes, but think back to 2004 (Port), 96 (Redbacks), 86, 97-98, 02 (Sixers) and 91-93 and 96-98 (Bulls) and re-assess your decision. The other option is to follow the 07 election campaign.

Denver wont be a dark horse, they will be cannon fodder for the real contenders in the West. When your best two players barely play any defense you are going to struggle in the playoffs.

There are a number of quality PGs coming through in the next draft, if the Sonics can pick up one of those, they should be looking good in a few seasons.

The Bulls seem quite unsettled by the constant Kobe rumours.
