The latest rumblings from around the Atlantic Division on Sunday evening:
- Tom Moore of PhillyBurbs.com doesn't think Evan Turner would merit an extension along the lines of Jrue Holiday's new four-year, $41MM deal if the decision were due today, but if Turner keeps up his improved play all season, his price tag next summer could be higher than Holiday's.
- Jared Zwerling of ESPNNewYork.com writes that Carmelo Anthony is earning early MVP consideration.
- Howard Beck of the New York Times writes that Deron Williams is still getting in rhythm leading the new-look Nets.
