My most hopeless teams moving forward....just after quick thought
1) Nets- They have picks, but two plus years after moving on from KD and Kyrie, they don't have one player I feel confident will be a core player when they are good again. I have no idea why that GM still has a job.
2) Suns- Really depressing seeing some fans talk themselves into the Suns. They have a really good player, but even that is negated with that huge extension he signed. The Suns can't really rebuild and just feel like they are just going to try to patch a hole that can't be patched. The high end is to make the play in and hope for an upset. Really bleak.
3) Toronto- Just a lot of solid players on top tier contracts. Most of these players are not desirable due to their contract. They just seem stuck in no mans land.
4) Kings- Kings just gonna Kings.
5) Pelicans- Some really talented players. I just team full of individuals looking for theirs and not a team. Plus, there is some bad juju with that team.
I have Washington and Charlotte both out of this list. Both will be bad, but I am starting to see a vision.
BTW, the Mavs would have been just outside this list (maybe even on it) if they did not win the lottery. It is amazing how that changed the franchise's future. Time will tell if they can become a contender again.
