Only two days into its new season, the NBA is already in mid-season form.
The Brooklyn Nets looked better than advertised in their opening night victory against the Golden State Warriors, it is clear that the Los Angeles Lakers and Clippers are going to continue to tempt basketball fans into thinking an eventual playoff showdown is forthcoming, and Jayson Tatum banked in a picturesque three to lead the Boston Celtics to victory in their home opener against the Milwaukee Bucks on a night where the late Tommy Heinsohn was honored.
There was no shortage of highlights.
