We're several games into the regular season, and times are exciting in the NBA. Sure, it's early in the year and a lot can change, but there are a few trends that seem to have sparked the interest of many fans, wondering how things will play out through the course of the season.
There have been some great developing stories through the first few games of the season. Here's a quick glimpse as to what's going on if you haven't been keeping up.
The first thing that should be mentioned is the stellar play of the Phoenix Suns. Through its four games, this team is unbeaten, and a tough win at Miami showed that this team is for real.
They haven't made any significant roster additions, but Nash, Richardson, Stoudemire, Hill, Barbosa, and the rest of the team have plenty of talent to go around. Could the Suns be a better team without the big Diesel?
How about the Thunder down in Oklahoma City? Everyone knows that one day this team may eventually break out. After all, Kevin Durant is one of the best young talents in the league and he as a nice supporting cast.
They were one of the worst teams in the league last season, and they've really improved like it's nobody's business.
With wins over the Kings and the Pistons (this one was on the road), they got off to a 2-0 start. Nearly beating the Lakers after this was perhaps the team's best achievement.
Lastly, we should look at the weak start in Cleveland. I can't even remember how many games it took last season before the Cavs lost twice, but it happened in just two games in 09-10.
The team lost its first two games. Sure, many could say that the loss to the Celtics could happen on any given night. How about the loss to the Raptors though? This took many by surprise, as this was a game the team never would have lost last season. With each and every game mattering as far as home court advantage goes, Cleveland needs to fix itself in a hurry.
