OKC-duh

Spurs-duh

Trail Blazers-Now just to be clear I think 3-9 will be like a 5 game gap or something stupid like that (it always happens with these west teams), but I think if Dame return at least 90% of what he was in Milwaukee (which I think he will), they would be extremely good.

Timberwolves-they have elite guard depth, which is great for them as they can rest Ant and LaMelo so they can get the best of them, and assuming they can get more relief in the Power Foward spot, I think they'll do well.

Suns-I love this Suns team and I think they are very underrated so yeah.

Rockets-I would have placed them higher if Ime Udoka wasn't the coach

Nuggets-Insanity: Doing the same thing all over again and expecting a different result (they can't rely on Jokić THAT much right?)

Lakers-Speaking of relying too much on a single player, without Luka they would be down with the Pelicans, they do have Luka but obviously he (and Reaves) has his injury woes but I have been proven wrong by JJ Reddick in the past.

Jazz-On paper they are great but you know they're young and this is their first year trying to compete since a long time ago it seems so they are gonna struggle a bit.

Warriors-They have Steph Curry (also Podz leap trust).

Mavericks- You can make the arguement that they have the best frontcourt in the league and the worst backcourt in the league. 11th.

Clippers- ASSUMING THE KAWHI TRADE FALLS THROUGH AND HIS CONTRACT GETS VOIDED. Sorry but this is as far as a Darius Garland lead team can get you.

Grizzlies-Very young team, going to be riddled with injuries as always, 13th.

Pelicans-Insanity 2: Doing the same thing all over again and expecting a different result

Kings-Today we're going to talk about the crossover and intersection between environmentalism, social justice, and education; in combination with raising awareness, leveraging your platform and influence, and investing in the sustainable future.
