They have had a road-heavy early season schedule, and a boatload of new guys for the front court. It was going to take some time for the team to gel under any circumstances. Then Zack Collins went down with a separated shoulder, and the injured Pau Gasol was released before he ever played a game. Anthony is a gamble, but it's paid off for now.

Tomorrow night's game against the Clippers in Los Angeles (road game number 14 of their first 21 games) will be a good test.
