I think the Pacers are only going to get better and the Bulls could be back...but yeah the Heat are annoyingly good.
Thats assuming their entire team made of glass doesnt break again. I have the pistons passing up the cavs mainly because i expect them to be healthier.
Yeah, I am not factoring in injuries until they happen. We will see how things play out. I think Tristan Thompson is going to be one of the most improved players in the league if he really somehow figured out how to shoot free throws. He switched over to shooting them right handed during the off-season and has been hitting over 70% of them where he was at like 40-50% last year. I think that is totally going to help his game.
What would they do move Jennings to SG?
He could be part of the trade. The celtics have no leverage with Rondo cause of his contract. The celtics have 2 options trade rondo to a fringe playoff team (like detroit) and get as much as you can . Or hold onto him and pray for a decent sign and trade deal. None of the bad teams will be looking to trade cause we are heading into the best draft since 2003.
Yeah I don't see that happening. I agree Detroit might be a fringe playoff team...but I can't imagine they would trade picks and their PG that they just signed and have been playing half the year with to plug in Rondo to the equation. If you aren't a legit contender it makes no sense to get rid of draft picks since the draft is stacked anyways.
I could absolutely see them doing it if rondo agreed to a contract. Some team will probably do the same thing for lamarcus aldridge.
