My top 8?
1 - Nuggets - tear it up in the regular season with young guys
2 - Suns - surprise a lot of people. Ayton averages 24-10 on lobs
3 - Lakers - favorites to win, but LeBron coasts 1/3 of the season
4 - Clippers - chemistry issues hamstring them but they're that talented
5- Warriors - return to the fray a little rusty
6 - Rockets - still squeak by even without chemistry. First round exit.
7 - Memphis - young guys emerge
8 - Mavs - barely make it. Luka explodes but doesn't have much talent with KP gone 1/3 of the season
xx - UTA, OKC, POR, SAS,
