A fortnight of NBA games have gone by and we’ve come to a startling conclusion: the inevitable is not inevitable. We are at the polar opposite of ‘here we go again!’ and this funky period underlines that we do indeed know nothing. Despite that ghastly notion we’ve rolled out ever since Golden State became the human version of the Harlem Globetrotters and one Michael Jordan reiterated in preseason with his ‘two great teams, 28 garbage ones’ comment, we actually have a competitive start. Prior to the season, we’d not yet elected Orlando the team to be reckoned with - steady, Magic fans - and there were a couple of unripe banana boat rosters in Oklahoma and Houston attempting to close the gap. A Greek Point Everything has invented a new position in Milwaukee and shut down the state of Wisconsin, too. But hang on a minute. The Warriors have lost three games already, including one against Memphis and Detroit. It took them until December 1 to lose as many last season. The Cavaliers have dropped five of their first eight contests and are on a four-game losing streak, which includes three teams who didn’t make the playoffs last season. LeBron James just hosted his now annual spook party and teammate Kevin Love and his wife dressed as the retired wrestlers Sting and Hulk Hogan. It looked fancy, but the league has flipped its script and the weaker teams have been laying a smackdown on the Cavaliers.
