| Â # | Â Tony | Â Mark | Â Comments | |
| Â 1 |  |  | Â Tony: Wow. Never thought I'd lead off with NY. Â Mark: LeBron put on one for the ages vs. Houston | |
| Â 2 |  | | Â Tony: Huh. Maybe age won't ever catch up to them. Â Mark: Duncan may never slow down. | |
| Â 3 | | | Â Tony: Ray Allen a perfect fit in South Beach. Â Mark: Still the NBA's only undefeated. | |
| Â 4 |  | | Â Tony: Kevin Martin replacing Harden admirably. Mark: Ibaka has an offensive game. Look out. | |
| Â 5 |  | | Â Tony: Griffin's numbers have generally declined each year. Â Mark: Still the best team in Los Angeles. | |
| Â 6 |  |  | Â Tony: They'll be fine. Stop freaking out. Â Mark: No Mayo hasn't hurt Memphis' sandwich. | |
| Â 7 |  |  | Â Tony: D-Will looks rejuvenated. Could be in MVP talks. Â Mark:Â 4-game win streak had Denver rolling before Phoenix loss. | |
| Â 8 |  | | Â Tony: Rondo has taken his game to another level. Â Mark: D'Antoni will do wonders for a team with great individual defenders. | |
| Â 9 | | | Â Tony: Very solid team. Z-Bo is back with a vengeance. Â Mark: 2-game road win streak has them back on track. | |
| Â 10 |  |  | Â Tony: Coming off a week with two tough losses. Â Mark: Jennings continues to roll in contract year. | |
| Â 11 |  | | Â Tony: Holiday is on fire, but Bynum news a big blow. Â Mark: If Hinrich's out, defense suffers big time. | |
| Â 12 | | | Â Tony: They just need a bit more time to gel. Â Mark: Brook Lopez benefitting early. | |
| Â 13 | |  | Â Tony: Jennings/Ellis learning how to co-exist? Â Mark: They're winning, and Love return on the horizon. | |
| Â 14 |  | | Â Tony: And suddenly, Bulls may be favorites in Central again. Â Mark: Bynum news (out until January) is huge. | |
| Â 15 |  |  | Â Tony: Teague improved, but needs to jump to another level. Â Mark: Injuries really piling up in the front court. | |
| Â 16 | |  | Â Tony: Mayo on fire, but can he be a No. 2 option when Dirk returns? Â Mark: Always good to win a triple-overtime game. | |
| Â 17 |  | | Â Tony: Bogut's health could damper playoff aspirations. Â Mark: Horford healthy and looking great. | |
| Â 18 | | | Â Tony: Injuries are decimating a decent team. Â Mark: Granger to miss 3 months. Paging Paul George. | |
| Â 19 | |  | Â Tony: At least Mo Williams is looking good. Â Mark: Huge win over the Nuggets on Monday. | |
| Â 20 |  |  | Â Tony: Who said Omer couldn't play offense? Â Mark: Anthony Davis didn't miss a step post-concussion. | |
| Â 21 | | | Â Tony: Gortat is a monster, but he and Dragic need help. Â Mark: Maybe Asik is worth $25 million. | |
| Â 22 |  | | Â Tony: Seriously, no depth. Injury to starter would derail this team. Â Mark: Tough schedule last week, but they've lost 4 straight. | |
| Â 23 | | | Â Tony: Surprisingly hot start, but won't last. Â Mark: Klay Thompson's shooting needs to improve, and it will. | |
| Â 24 |  | | Â Tony: My boy Kemba is turning into a star. Â Mark: Kemba Walker early favorite for most improved player. | |
| Â 25 |  |  | Â Tony: Kyrie has gone to next level, but not much of a supporting cast. Â Mark: Lowry could be out another week. | |
| Â 26 | |  | Â Tony: Lowry injury allows them to showcase Calderon for trades. Â Mark: 2-0 start may have been a mirage. | |
| Â 27 | | | Â Tony: And...there it is. This is more like what I expected. Â Mark: Waiters is starting to really get it going. | |
| Â 28 |  | | Â Tony: Cousins is a child. But a very talented child. Â Mark: See: last week. Cousins hasn't grown up. | |
| Â 29 |  | | Â Tony: Hasn't Seraphin earned more minutes? Â Mark: Bradley Beal looking like the right pick. | |
| Â 30 |  | | Â Tony: Laughable start to the season. Ouch. Â Mark: How have they not won with Greg Monroe? |
