has taken place so far.
Derrick Rose and Kobe Bryant have had unsuccessful returns to the hardwood. Rose had season ending knee surgery and Kobe is out for 6 weeks after fracturing his knee. The Bulls and the Lakers will be hard press to make run for the title without them.
The Brooklyn Nets and the New York Knicks are the two disappointing teams early on. With the injury to Brook Lopez, the Nets will not challenge the Heat as expected. Mike Woodson will have a hard time keeping his job if things don't turn around. New York is not the sports city with the most patience.
The Indiana Pacers are the best team in the NBA. They play good defense and have a superstar in Paul George. The conference finals will feature the Pacers and the Heat.
Houston and Golden State will make a run as they start to gel moving toward the All Star break. I don't expect Phoenix to continue at their current pace. Jeff Hornacek is a better coach than I thought he would be.
