Durant breaks nose, but Wizards start perfect

It hasn't taken long for Washington to become the certified favourite for the Eastern Conference, starting the season a perfect 6-0 through the first few weeks, even with a broken nose to superstar Kevin Durant. With momentum on their side, could we see the Wizards hold their ground and remain a cut above the rest of the Conference?

Horror start for new-look Nuggets

In the 2017-18 season the Denver Nuggets new-look lineup is yet to reap a win, leaving a huge question mark around the trading of DeAndre Jordan for former #1 pick Andrew Wiggins. Can the Nuggets turn it around and return to the West's elite?

Curry stays in MVP form

It may only be a couple of weeks, but Stephen Curry remains in top form, leading the league in both points and steals, firming thoughts that this could be a back-to-back MVP season for the former champion.

Not surprising to see Durant making an immediate impact, broken nose and all. Westbrook going for that FU triple-double average!

Injury curse continues to haunt Rip City

With injuries derailing their last campaign, the Trail Blazers could be heading down an eerily disappointing path in a new division, losing Marc Gasol for 4-6 months with a dislocated patella. Can Portland manage to right the ship in his absence and stay in the upper echelon of the West?

Reigning East champs take back top position, Warriors & Jazz continue battle it out

Taking the crown from the Wizards, The Cavaliers are back on top of the East, hungry to defend their East crown behind LeBron James. Mirroring October's standings, the Warriors continue to sit one game above the wounded reigning champions, hoping to convert MVP Stephen Curry's spectacular play into a dominant season.

Rose the missing piece in Indy?

Boasting their best starting record at this point of the season in years, the Indiana Pacers are reaping the rewards of offseason acquisition and former All-Star Derrick Rose, as the struggling franchise sits only one game behind the second placed Wizards. Teaming with fellow veterans Chris Bosh and Wesley Matthews, there's hope once again that this momentum into some deadline moves could see Indy back in contention.

It could be the Cavs' year, though it'd be only appropriate if the Warriors finally get over the hump and end up standing in their way.

I've been noticing over 2K17-18 that injuries on watched games are much higher than in previous games, with severe ankle sprains being the main culprit (Griffin/Smith Jr.) - almost seems like a bug.

A not insignificant number of players who've been severely injured in my NBA 2K14 MyCAREER suffered their injuries in games against us. You do have to wonder if the odds are a little higher, especially in a mode like MyCAREER where you can't adjust any sliders.

Bull's horror season continues, losing streak stands at 16

The nightmare continues in the Windy City, currently in the middle of the franchises worst losing streak which currently stands at 16 straight losses. With their first round pick in the hands of the Lakers, the Bulls are in serious trouble and in no position to get out from under themselves this season.

Suns hold their own in Northwest

The phrase "A rising tide raises all ships" seems to be ringing true for the Suns, who sit comfortably in the playoff hunt for the first time since 2009 in their first season as part of the league's most ruthless division. Taking advantage of the plummeting Nuggets and average play of the Timberwolves, Phoenix have turned a deathwish into an opportunity behind star John Wall and a youthful supporting cast.

Cavaliers, Wizards appear a league of their own

With the Bucks trailing the second-placed Wizards by 6 games, it looks to be a two-team show at the top of the East standings. With last year's East champions and the Wizards steaming ahead of the rest of the Conference, will the gap remain when the two titans will do battle next in mid-February?
