This team is going to be really bad and it's bumming me out.

Davis is great!  Cousins is great!  But they're going into the season injured and that may be the end of them.

Pacers are probably bad.  Maybe they'll make the playoffs because the east is so bad, like if Myles Turner makes a jump.  But no.  They probably will suck a lot.

Is adding Chris Paul that big of a deal?  I don't think so.

Warriors will probably be good again.  Adding Nick Young helps.  Only mental stuff may derail them and that probably won't happen.

Detroit overhauled their team, but how useful was that overhaul?  Well it doesn't matter.  Their record depends on Drummond, their shooting, and their health.

Will the Mavericks finally embrace tanking?  Or will they go all out to try and get Dirk one last playoff appearance?  Is it even possible for them to do that in the crowded west?

I think the Cavs are going to be great this year, if they can keep the drama to a low.

Their fans say "stink lines personified."  Well, it's bad, but maybe not that bad.

Brookly Nets will be better than last year.  Maybe not by much, but they will be better.
