Out of curiosity....what is this team's max potential.
More wins than last year, making the playoffs, 5-7 seeding, second round playoffs, ECFs.

Do you want to clarify 'max potential?' If we're talking crazy, pie in the sky potential, anything can happen. Knight could become an all start and KCP show flashes of being Reggie Miller. But do you mean a vaguely realistic best case scenario? Or a very possible(if not likely) outcome if things fall more or less into place?

I think we may have a credible shot at the number 6 slot in the playoffs. The first 5 positions appear to be on lock, but it's a long season and injuries happen so one of those locks could get "unlocked". Chicago and New York have been bit by the injury bug for the past few years. Brooklyn is scary, but old in some key places. Those variables make me feel like once you get in the playoffs anything can happen...within reason. Second round is probably the ceiling for us this year.

I live on the west coast and didn't get NBA league pass last season... so I only saw the Pistons play the Clippers and Lakers. And to be honest they looked awful. So I'm talking realistic improvements.
