I was thinking the same thing. The Grizz last season were 10-15 at their worst and still had to pull off the best record in the NBA post Jan. 1 to sneak into the playoffs. They are already 9 games below .500.

Can't spot teams that many games in this conference.

Especially considering that the bottom of the conference has gotten better. Kings, Pels, and Utah are all improved. Denver is still a nightmare to deal with on their home court. The Twolves are missing a bunch of guys right now, but can cause some issues when they are 100%.

The Lakers stink.

The Grizz were exactly who I was thinking of. That was a Herculean effort just to make the postseason, and honestly idk if OKC can pull it off at this point.

Yup, there are simply no gimmes to be had. Incidentally, I'm going to see SA play the Wolves in a couple of weeks. Hoping the T-Pups don't decide to be troublesome
