He's not adding anything to his game, he's a one-dimensional offensive player and not good enough to elevate the Raptors to a contending team.


He's added to his game every offseason imo - to each their own

to me the Wizards aren't a lock for the 3 seed, their supporting cast is meh just like the Bucks. it'll come down to coaching and star power, we haven't seen Beal elevate his game to where he is expected to be. Otto Porter has shown improvement but i'm not convinced that its sustainable, honestly I think he is one of the most overpaid role players right now

Heat not in the top 12 sad list but what do you expect from ESPN. They follow hype trains more than basic fans

Heat couldn't even beat out the pathetic teams that had their stars with one foot out the door last season

Wizards were the 4 seed last year not 3.

There is a lot of intrigue to me about how the regular season will play out more so then the playoffs where we can pretty safely say what will happen. The top of the east is interesting to me because you have the cavs and celts who are clearly the top 2 but for the season I think they might stop a bit compared to the raptors and wizards just because of chemistry. It would not surprise me if the wizards or raptors were a 1 or 2 seed just because the others might take awhile to get going. Obviously neither team beats the cavs and probably not Boston come playoffs but both teams could rack up wins in the season



When I was writing that I wasn't sure about it, shoulda checked - my bad. Still think they'll be third this year. Not a chance that the Raptors or Wizards take a 1 or 2 seed.

bretty gud lad
I do agree Knicksmeme should be in the dogshit tier. I like Blazers more than the Nuggets and Jazz.



Yeah I think they're all kinda in the same range, I might have the Jazz too high.

Absolutely no way the Heat are a top 12 team rofl.

And these are my power rankings, not ESPN.

I'm not hating on DeRozan, I think hes underrated by many on this forum, but he's a specialist.
