Nick Sciria (Nylon Calculus, BBALL BREAKDOWN) joined the podcast to break down the Northwest division:

*How well to the Timberwolves pieces fit together? How much will spacing be an issue?

*Can Paul Millsap shore up Denver's defense? How will "He who shall not be named" fair this season?

*Can Nurkic continue his stellar play in Portland? How damaging was their off-season?

*Will OKC capitalize on their influx of talent and shooting? Or will Westbrook-ball continue to reign supreme?

*How far will the Jazz fall sans-Gordon Hayward? Can Rubio keep the offense out of the bottom 3rd of the league?
