Oh, you thought it was all sunshine and rainbows over here, huh? Absolutely not. We’re realists on this blog, and I don’t expect anyone reading to be anything different. Just like every team has some redeeming qualities, they all have their faults. Let’s talk about them.
– Atlanta Hawks: Outside of Trae Young, it seems pretty difficult to get anything on offense. If the ball isn’t in his hands, it’s almost as if you don’t score.
– Boston Celtics: This is the worst the team has played since KG and Paul Pierce were traded away to Brooklyn. The difference? We have two All-Stars.
– Brooklyn Nets: Ya’ll can’t play any defense. Looks like the Harlem Globetrotters out there.
– Charlotte Hornets: You all are fun to watch, but you’re putting your hopes in a rookie who’s averaging a billion turnovers a game.
– Chicago Bulls: I don’t think that superstars want to play in Chicago. The last few years, the front office has proven that they can’t handle stars.
– Cleveland Cavaliers: If LeBron isn’t there, there isn’t a chance that Cleveland does anything of significance in the next few years.
– Dallas Mavericks: Luka is amazing, sure. Your second fiddle? Can’t stay on the court long enough to be effective.
– Denver Nuggets: You have a MVP candidate on your team, but can’t seem to string together wins when you need them.
– Detroit Pistons: I mean, just look at your record.
– Golden State Warriors: Without Klay Thompson, there isn’t any real chance of doing anything in the playoffs.
– Houston Rockets: You probably won’t have an identity for a while. Unless you strike gold in the draft.
– Indiana Pacers: You have an All-Star, and a Defensive Player of the Year candidate, and yet you aren’t over .500.
– Los Angeles Clippers: Paul George does look good, but can he do the same thing in the playoffs? Or is there just going to be a repeat of last year?
– Los Angeles Lakers: LeBron backpacking seems rough. Without AD, this team isn’t as good as we all thought they could be.
– Memphis Grizzlies: Jaren Jackson Jr. can’t stay healthy to help Ja Morant.
– Miami Heat: At times this season, it really does seem like the Finals run last year was a fluke.
– Milwaukee Bucks: A two time MVP and you can’t even make it to the Finals.
– Minnesota Timberwolves: KAT and D’Lo could very well look to be traded. If you don’t have them, you don’t have much.
– New Orleans Pelicans: Too young to do anything serious in the playoffs.
– New York Knicks: Sooner or later the Knicks luck will run out.
– Oklahoma City Thunder: You probably won’t be title contenders for another 5 years.
– Orlando Magic: Despite having Disney World, no one has any desire to play for you.
– Philadelphia 76ers: Even with Joel Embiid playing at a MVP level, the fit with him and Ben Simmons is still weird.
– Phoenix Suns: CP3 and D. Book are great, but what about the rest of the team?
– Portland Trailblazers: Your team can’t stay healthy enough to be a threat in the playoffs.
– San Antonio Spurs: Times are really dark without Kawhi or Tim Duncan.
– Toronto Raptors: People have figured out Siakam, and it’s really easy to game plan for.
– Utah Jazz: Rudy Gobert isn’t good enough to be the second best player on a championship team.
– Washington Wizards: $85 million in just three players and only a 13-19 record to show for it.
