3 NBA teams that should already be worried
The Big Lead flags three NBA clubs that should already be on edge after a 0‑3 start to the 2026‑27 season. The defending champion New York Knicks, who lost to an undermanned Orlando Magic, are the first title‑holders to stumble 0‑3 since the 2011‑12 Mavericks, with key players Karl‑Anthony Towns, Josh Hart and Miles McBride still awaiting contract extensions. The Golden State Warriors sit winless amid an aging roster, a blown 12‑point lead to Memphis and Kristaps Porziņģis sidelined by POTS, though Stephen Curry secured a two‑year extension. Finally, the Miami Heat, despite landing Giannis Antetokounmpo, have yet to notch a win, conceding 115+ points in each loss while trying to mesh Giannis with Bam Adebayo under Erik Spoelstra. These early struggles suggest a potentially rough campaign for all three teams.
