I’d have to go with the Magic being 11-5 and on a 6 game win streak.
Watched the Celtics game and they played great individual and team defense while taking high IQ shots. Which is a rarity now because usually teams with young rosters keep chucking it with no disregard with what is happening on the court (Grizzlies). This Magic squad is very well coached.
Legit if they can get a couple of 3 and D players, or resurrect prime Klay Thompson, this team can be extremely scary.
The Rockets. I had no idea how much effect Udoka would have, and he has them being one of the best defenses in the league. Huge surprise for me.
The Magic being good is not a surprise for me. I wouldn’t have picked them to have a record THIS good this early, but I had them as a playoff team before the season started.
