99.9% of off-season moves have now been finalized. There could be another trade or two before opening night that might change things, but I’m confident in posting how I see it playing out in the West.
Tier 1:
1) SAS
2) OKC
Tier 2:
3) MIN
4) HOU
5) DEN
6) LAL
Tier 3:
7) POR
8) UTAH
9) DAL
10) GSW
11) PHX
Tier 4:
12) LAC
13) MEM
14) NOP
15) SAC
3-11 all have question marks. Some more than others. That’s why I put it in tiers. After the top 2, it’ll be the Wild Wild West!
