1-3
・Washington
・Utah
・Toront
*Hard tank team. They will undoubtedly fall into the bottom 3.
4-6
・Chicago
・Portland
・Brooklyn
*A team that finds no meaning in winning. They are looking for a way to trade away mediocre veterans and hope to fall to the bottom.
7-8
・Charlotte
・Detroit
*A team that already has a superstar prospect. However, due to a lack of overall strength, they will remain around this level.
???
・Philadelphia
・New Orleans
*Devastated by injuries. Depending on how things unfold, they could switch to a hard tank.
Overall
・Considering injuries, the only truly weak team in the West is Utah. In the East, teams from 5th to 13th are beating each other up, and Chicago and Brooklyn might win more than expected.
