Uljiri has turned rudy gay into vasquez/salmons/Hayes

They'll probably decline salmons to free up more cap space(or flip him+Amir) and if uljiri can get rid of gay he can ditch fields as well.

That gives them 20+ Mil in cap space plus an already solid young core(Lowry/Derozan/Valucias/Ross)

Hinkie for PHI is very much an advanced numbers geek which is the trend these days

He'll have two lottery picks+30 mil in cap+MCW/Turner/Young

Not bad for your first year.

ORL has Oladipo/Harris/Vucevic/Harkless on cheap deals and will have trade assets in Nelson/Afflalo+Cap space

New bucks GM got rid of Jennings for a cheaper option in Knight(who has improved) and a nice young frontcourt of Henson/Sanders(when healthy)

Also some good pieces in giannis/illyasova/Mayo(The later two will probably be moved when they get wiggins/parker)

They're all in much better shape than 1-2 years ago


This passage contains a lot of 'ifs,' and ambitious prognostications for average, or unproven, players.

Nature of the beast really

But at the very least they're all in position to become solid young teams and the east will be much better for it.

Fair enough. I do like what Toronto is doing. I like their nucleus. I think that Phi/Mil/Orl are all a long, long ways away from being competitive. Just my opinion.
