I definitely think we’ll be a bottom 5 team this year and a strong chance of getting a top 3 or worse a top 5 pick. Especially (hopefully) if KP sits out the entire season. Teams will target Timmy, and you cannot expect a rookie to carry the weight nor a 2nd yr defensive specialist.
These were the bottom 10 teams last yr
10. Lakers- Will end up with a better record
9. Knicks
8. Nets- they’ll be a bottom team like us
7. Kings- they’ll be a bottom team as well
6. Bulls- should have a better record
5. Magic- should have a better record
4. Mavs- won’t be blatantly tanking
3. Hawks- bottom team like us
2. Grizzlies- won’t be blatantly tanking
1. Suns- should have a better record
You’re looking at knicks, nets, hawks and kings competing for that top 3 pick.
