Wemby is back with the full complement, plus two bigs in the draft.

Even after losing Mitchell Robinson, they will still be difficult to beat.

Jaylen Brown is gone, and the team will be better.

It’s hard to say how good the Pistons really are. They will play hard, and Cade Cunningham will be good, but they don’t have enough offense to compete for a championship.

Joker. Thats it.

I love the new look Heat. Giannis Antetokounmpo will dominate, but their guard play may hold them back.

Quietly, the Lakers have a chance to be a top-four team in the Western Conference.

Not the best mix of talent to win a championship, but a lot of name guys.

Eh.

Do we have to watch this movie again?

The Raptors were a shocker last season. Let’s see where they go from here.

Can Melo get them over the hump?

Based on preseason expectations, the Suns have actually been impressive.

The Hawks are improving. Kuminga is happy. Again, why couldn’t Kerr find him minutes?

Let’s see if Draymond can earn his Hall of Fame status this year with injuries to the team’s other great players.

Paulo and the boys have to figure it out. This was supposed to be a monster year for him and the Magic.

The Hornets are looking better and better. Kon and Brandon are a tough wing combo.

Jason Kidd’s newest iteration of Frankenstein is playing well. The rest of the team sucks.

A really good start helped this team tremendously.

I saw the vision. Not sure what’s going on in D.C. currently.

Lots of talent but no real identity.

The window may have closed on this team, but with their point guard back, the group should be better.

If basketball purgatory were a place.
