Orlando looks like they’re headed for a retool.

Can never discount HerSports and what she has up her sleeve.

I also expect Brooklyn to be healthier this season and they’ll be a major pain to deal with too with the sim boosts they’re due.

no favorites 2010...you talking about some elite GM's there :D

I had to edit the post cuz I almost forgot Brooklyn too.

East is no joke. But I still got you at the top cuz the squad is ready right now, has star power, offense, defense, and size. Very balanced. That was your Achilles heel in the past and you’ve gotten over the hump.

Brooklyn is low key nice. Brunson will get an a obvious bump and embiid is embiid and butler still will be good.

He will get a bump from some of his role players as well I would expect

I say low-key because he doesn't participate much.

Next year's FA class is going to be so good. Some of those names especially what they currently are making. Going to have some big jump ups.
