    The issue I see with teams like the blazers is that they have enough talent to be vaguely competitive and get hopes up but never enough to actually be a threat. Unless they fully commit to a rebuild they’ll likely be perennial contenders for the play-in.

    I feel like the pistons and rockets have been tanking… they seem to have young cores but idk what they’re development prospects are like.

      The classic. Too bad to win a championship, but too talented to tank for the draft. Hopefully their young talent proves more lethal than expected and can push them to be more competitive. Post-dame will certainly be interesting if he is even going to be gone for next season.
