If something is not lacking the NBA is a engaging narrative. There is always something to catch the viewer’s attention, always something that hooks you. This start of the season was not going to be for less and after the first week of competition, the Sunday day left us a night of surprises and confirmations.
The undefeated
To begin with, so only four undefeated teams remain and they all play in the Eastern Conference. Far from being the Celtics, Bucks or Nets, as we would all expect, we talk about the Cleveland Cavaliers, Orlando Magic, Indiana Pacers y Atlanta Hawks, although these with a game less.
That’s right, three of the teams that missed the playoffs last season now lead the league and are yet to know defeat. Not only that, but Between all they average more than 12 points of difference over their rivals. Note that not everything is written!
They don’t know victory
On the other hand we have the teams that have not yet won a single match. This could be expected from Chicago (0-3) or Detroit (0-2) but it is surprising to see Denver, Toronto or Memphis with zero wins in his locker after a week of competition.
The case of Rockets (0-1) is special because the suspension of their opening match means that they have only played a single match so far. The classification is closed by Wizards that despite the role of Bradley Beal and the incorporation of Russell Westbrook, do not know the triumph.
Winning shots
And what would the best league in the world be without a winning shot? Yesterday we relived the emotion of a buzzer-beater in the NBA. This time it was hand in hand with Golden State Warriors They thus achieved their first victory with their victory against the Chicago Bulls.
Damion Lee was in charge of executing the Illinois men with his winning basket in the final moments. The San Francisco player scored a spectacular front triple to put the definitive 128-129 on the scoreboard.
In addition to the Warriors, several games were decided in the final moments. Sabonis acted as executor to Boston In Indiana’s victory, Ingram was decisive in the end to bring down the Spurs and the same happened in Charlotte with Hayward and the triumph of the Hornets.
Finally, as surprises are the order of the day in the league, we could not miss the mention of the Historic beating of Dallas against the Clippers by 51 points difference! It was not so bad, but the Knicks they also wanted their pinch of prominence last night so they decided to claim their first win of the year by sweeping to the Bucks by 20 points.
