Fridge all-star so the team can keep its cool during crunch time.

I think you'd need a clearly All-NBA caliber guy (think Lillard) to feel pretty good about your playoff chances, that team doesn't have any gaping holes, but it doesn't really have any strong points either.

Playoff favorite as in a favorite to make the playoffs OR a favorite to win the playoffs? No PG can make that team a playoffs favorite to win it but outside of Curry or maybe Lillard, that team wouldn’t go anywhere.

for making the playoffs, an average to above starter, for being a title threat, Curry or bust, unless you count Harden as a PG
