The NBA has been full of some huge storylines so far this season.
Some have been very flattering to teams, others have not been.
There are some squads that have been surging all season long, while some have been floundering and falling apart.

For example, the Milwaukee Bucks have been doing incredibly well while the San Antonio Spurs have not been.
The Bucks are in the midst of a 14-game winning streak while the Spurs have lost 16 matches in a row.
Because of this, the Bucks are the second-best team in the East and just half-a-game behind the top-seeded Boston Celtics.
Meanwhile, the Spurs are the 14th team in the West and dangerously close to passing the Houston Rockets to be the worst team in their conference.
Few people thought that the Spurs would be good this season.
They had been on a downward trajectory for years now.
The final nail in their coffin was when they lost Dejounte Murray to the Atlanta Hawks during the summer.
That essentially gave up all their chances of being competitive in 2022-23.
It is true that they have a lot of great, young talent on the roster but that talent won’t be acquiring them many wins this season and it’ll be a few years before they are contenders again.
However, they may get the last laugh because their atrocious season gives them a decent shot at landing incoming rookie Victor Wembanyama in the upcoming NBA Draft.
So, perhaps all these losses will be worth it in the long run.
As for the Bucks, they are poised to possibly return to the NBA Finals this year.
It won’t be easy to accomplish but they are rising up and getting a ton of wins at the perfect time.
