Winners (IMO)

1. HOU
2. DEN
3. ATL
4. NYK
5. DAL
6. SAS

Who were the biggest losers in your eyes?

1. IND
2. TOR
3. NOP
4. PHX
5. DET
6. LAL

Detroit and Lakers are the biggest losers for sure.

How's next year draft? We're drafting at #5 again.

POR gained 1 billion fans and dropped Simons and Ayton.

That is a great offseason.

Houston
San Antonio
Orlando
Atlanta
Denver
New York
Dallas

Are the main ones that come to mind for winners.

It's hard to say losers this early. But I will say that the Lakers and Pelicans are looking bad so far this offseason.

A long way to go. It has been two days.

Dallas is the biggest winner simply by virtue of getting Flagg. Then Denver and Houston.

Losers are less clear.

I love the Yang Hansen pick. I had never heard of him but after watching his highlight reel, I'm surprised he didn't go higher. To get a big man with that kind of potential with the 16th pick is awesome.

A lot more could happen but the Bulls look like losers right now

They barely made the play in
they resigned Tre Jones which is a very good move, likely to resign Josh Giddey
traded Lonzo Ball for Isaac Okoro which doesn't do that much

drafted two young bigs

Even if everybody starts the year healthy That short list isn't getting them back to barely in the play in again.

I think Sengun went at about that pick. Hopefully Mmm Bop will be on Senguns level.

DEN got a lot better very quick. Best improvement of anyone imo. DAL got Flagg but also signed Russ so hmm..

HOU improved more than DEN, didn’t they?

How are the Lakers losers? They're finna be getting Ayton..... on Portland's dime

Indiana easily the biggest losers. Sorry to their fans. Can't believe they're not just gonna ride out the 1 year storm and run in back in 26. They were 1 game short of a championship FFS

Even cheap ass Jerry Reinsdorf paid the tax the year after Rose got hurt, and we were never 1 game shy of a championship even with healthy Rose

Winners
Houston
Orlando

Losers
Everyone else

They both have had great off-seasons.

I'm still curious which teams that have won free agency have won a title. Not very many examples outside of a few outliers but even those were teams that were already great (i.e. Warriors).

I Ayton does go to LAL.

You will learn.

Houston’s best player is 37 years old lmao.

Getting Jokic depth>>>

HOU got much needed scoring and depth.

DEN got a couple bench guys.

Cam Johnson isn’t a bench guy and Denver has a better starting 5.

Also, there’s a quote feature.
