Mainly talking about young guys here but you can throw in a vet too.

I loved watching Bruce brown with the pacers guy looks like a great fit next haliburton, his passing really helps there offense reach a new level of intensity and his shooting looks like its continuing to get better off the catch.

Also loved what I saw out of derrick lively too, high energy good defense, needs to work on his ft shooting but overall looks like he could be dallas's starting centre sooner rather then later, kidd really started to trust him down the stretch.

Still a few more season debuts to go, but Duren, Lively, Tillman impressed me amongst the big men a lot, imposed themselves on the game, hustled and ran the floor hard.

As for my Nets obviously Cam Thomas looked great as an individual scorer, but then that's something I have known since last season when he had 4 40 point games, just annoyed that my coach still refuses to start him or let him play on ball for majority of the time on court. Instead we keep running out Dinshittie who keeps bricking everything. Liked what I saw from Ben as a solid start 4/10/9/1 on just two turnovers isn't half bad, I don't care if he doesn't score, just keep rebounding, assisting and defending.

Loved Okogie and Nurkic on the Suns, Porzingis shocked me because I didn't expect that defensive impact (Dallas fans did him no justice, nor did Wizards fans). Underwhelmed by Ant and KAT season debuts, but OKC look ready for the leap, especially Shai.

KP had defensive stints with us were he was great, but the injuries kind of affected him being consistent on that end. He's a beast when healthy and doesn't have to battle rust.
