1.Clippers 2.Bucks ( i know hungry when I see it. they are hungry) 3.Lakers ( The are big inside. If you can't shoot, you're in trouble) 4. Philly. ( Solid squad, good depth, defense, etc. But Imbid can't play every night) 5. Houston/Portland ( Both teams look the same as last year, and the year before that, put up a lot of points, but no defense to close the show).
Raptors: Still got some top players, Siakam is a beast, could get back to the Eastern Conference Finals. But losing Kawhi will be too much to overcome.
Pacers: Solid team, could make some noise.
Boston: a lot of great individual scoring pieces, but that's it. Miami: Could be a huge sleeper, but too young, and not enough superstars. But got some serious defense inside and out, and tons of athletic players
Utah/ Denver: Mirror image of each other
Golden State: Playing for next year.
Young, fun teams to watch, but no chance in hell: Pelicans, Bulls, Knicks, Suns, Griz, Hornets
Players I'm loving right now: Kelly Oubre, Jr./ Brandon Ingram. Both are turning into beasts on both sides of the ball.
