Howard and Rondo are liable to breakdown as the season goes on, and AD has racked up plenty more than his fair share of missed time due to injury. Its only a quarter through the season and as we witnessed in the 2019 NBA Finals, being healthy at the right moment can win you a title.
They can manage without Howard or Rondo. It would definitely be a loss if either got hurt but they should stay healthier just because they are only playing about 20 minutes a game each. They are absolutely contenders but they aren't as good as their record in my opinion. They have won a lot of close games again lesser teams. Pelicans, Grizzlies, Thunder x2, Bulls, Kings.
