This is the first season in a while where I don't feel a move is needed

...to finish top 4 in the West. Sure part of it is parity in the West, but for once this team is starting the season with an identity it spent all of last year building, Defend and Run. The players it added seem to fit that identity and the players it kept minus Rondo were a good playoff team.

Facts, ATL. I feel better about this team and than I did last years. It seems like these players will play well off each other and all fit into the system, unlike last season where it seemed like the Pels were still trying to run but had a ball dominant center that was slow and bad on defense. Basically the worst type of player you'd want on a team that is trying to run with AD.

AD is gonna make Dell look like a damn genius with the EP signing. Elfrid can get in the paint and toss up lobs in his damn sleep.

It really depends on Elfrid IMO, as far as this being a 6-8 seed or a 3-5 seed. I really loved the idea of Payton coming here and backing up Rondo for a year, learning how to win. Unfortunately we lost Rondo. I feel good about the Payton fit, though. He should be able to rejuvenate his career with the fast pace offense the Pels run.

We know what AD, Jrue and Niko will bring. They were great together. I am confident Randle will be good here, likely a better fit than Boogie, though obviously less talented. Moore is damn solid. This team should be good. Hopefully Hill can be OK, that would go a long way. I am curious to see if they will try to get Niko, AD, Randle all in at the same time. I really do think Niko could play some at the three, same with Randle, though he isn't a shooting threat.
