Lots of below average teams, which concerns me. I want good picks.

MCW is ROY. It's over. Oladipo is only other guy with a shot. After 3 games that is.

Sixers have a serious problem on their bench. I like this team so far and they look like they hit a home run on the HC but they need to start losing.

Look at these PER numbers where 15 is an average NBA player.

Spencer Hawes heading into the year had a 14.3 PER and after 3 games he is 4th in the NBA with a 29.97.

MCW is 8th at 29.15.

Evan Turner for his career was a below average 12.0 and so far is 20.54.

Thad Young's is above his career average, too.

Point being these guys are all playing over their abilities in this small 3 game stretch and these PER's will adjust closer to their norm in the coming weeks and the tank will be back in full force.

Oh, and Anthony Davis may singlehandedly screw the Sixers pick they are getting from New Orleans. He is 3rd in PER at 31.99 with 23.7 pts, 12.3 reb and 4blk. People that question some of these high draft picks during their rookie year seem to forget these are guys that are 19 years old and will take a few years to develop and catch up to the guys in the NBA.

Pretty much everybody else on the Bulls are doing their jobs right now but Rose is completely horrendous. Noah isn't 100% either but it's mostly Rose, Boozer is somehow playing amazing right now though so that's nice and will pay dividends if he can keep it up once Rose returns to form.

There was a time when I would have loved to have Rose on the Celtics. But he isn't even playing better than our 6th man.

Nice return for Westbrook.

Only 5-16 shooting but he got into the lane creating easy shots for his teammates and allowing easy 2nd chance points.

Westbrook:
21 points
11-14 FT
7 Ast
4 Reb
4 TO
1 Steal

Minnesota is looking like they could be a sneaky good team in the West.

They just finished off the Knicks in NY.

They've got a solid roster. Love, Rubio, Kevin Martin, Pekovic, JJ Barea, and Corey Brewer are they core players.

I don't think they'll make the WCF but I could see them landing the 5th seed and winning a 1st round series.

The Nets followed up their win over Miami with a 21 point loss to the Magic.

I'm not surprised.

And what the hell is wrong with Deron Williams? Through 3 games, he has scored 7, 8, and 9 points.
