Wouldn't feel super confident about Team 2, just not a great fit/collection of talent. However Team 1 surely would. Team 3 probably would be among the worst defensive teams in the league but could be top 2-3 offensively. Still feels more like a play in team to me.

Only team 1 makes it, the others could make play-in. Overall the depth is impressive
