1) Love the Warriors new uni's, their backcourt and David Lee. If Biedrins gets back to 2008 form, they might snatch the 8th playoff spot.
2) Gooden is gonna be in Skiles doghouse soon if he doesn't play some D!
3) Bogut is looking good already.
4) Is anyone alive in Houston's frontcourt other than Scola?
5) Knicks have improved vastly over the dark days of the Thomas era - but they are still a very limited team. Stoudemire is good, but doesn't defend the paint and Chandler is coming along, but thats about it. Felton is no Steve Nash. Not even sure he's Goran Dragic.
6) The Clippers have a bull in Griffin, but he needs to learn to preserve the china. The biggest problem with them right now is that their guards think they are the best players on the team. Sorry guys, but get the ball to Kaman and Griffin, learn to make open jump shots and defend!
7) If Big Baby Davis lost enough weight to get off the ground, he could be the second coming of Charles Barkeley. The guy has great skills and mobility for such a big man, he is a CLUTCH shooter and an awesome positional defender.

Steph Curry has proven that ankle breaking cross-over is a real life.

Scola has been huge so far, playing like an allstar, 27ppg & 14Rpg. 20 & 10 on the season might not be out of the question.
Hornets starting 3-0 and their great D is a surprise, knocked off 3 playoff teams including the Spurs in San Antonio.
