Another part to consider.
There might be 20-30 players that will look completely different from their pre-bubble play, just because they had some real time off to work on their bodies and games without the playing stress, the travel stress, the recovery and mental stress. Might be some that got lazy or simply old, too. It´s been nine months for some players. That´s the longest off-season they had since highschool/college.
The same is obviously true for all the college kids, but they have to figure out the NBA with no summer-league or pre-season. Though they probably have the advantage of the condensed schedule and covid cases giving them default minutes.
