The Jazz literally have NO weaknesses on their roster. No holes. No blindspots. It's just the Clippers have Kawhi Leonard and that's the only team that can and probably beat the Jazz in the playoffs.

Pistons:
Rose
Snell
Doumbouya
Griffin
Drummond

You're wrong. Lakers don't have enough defense

yah i am not that impressed with rondo/green/cousins as their supporting cast in the starting lineup.

LeBron and Davis is prob. the 2nd best combo in the entire sport for the upcoming year anyway, but i think other teams have deeper starting 5's.

If the reports of lebron as pg are true the starting lineup will look like the following.

Pg-bron
Sg-green
Sf-kuz
Pf- davis
C- Cousins

Amazing offensive group but poor defense

 

[bksballer89]

Philly starting lineup is almost perfect and especially if Simmons come back with a jump shot

i think that would be a huge mistake starting LeBron at point guard. That just puts too much on him from the very start having to bring the ball up.

LeBron usually does that a lot- but you gotta have a guy that can do that and take that responsibility off his plate if you ask me.

I cant ever remember LeBron in his entire career just starting at point guard besides maybe VERY VERY early on with the Cavs.

its really good but its a little big. Can Harris play SF?

 

[Gman]

Philly. Love the defensive potential of that group... it's staggering.

But if Enes Kanter plays far better than he has ever played in his entire life, watch out for the Celtics.

Lol. Simmons will never have a jumper. Plus, no one can bank on Embiid's health / excuses. They'll never make it past the 2nd round.

Lakers:
PG: James
SG: Green
SF: Kuzma
PF: Davis
C: Cousins

 

[WiggyRuss]

Pistons:
Rose
Snell
Doumbouya
Griffin
Drummond

well...you have Snell.....so that is a big positive...lol

but...

what you got on THIS?

PG: Garland
SG: Sexton
SF: Osman
PF: Love
C: Thompson

ooooooooooohhhhh yah

 

[WiggyRuss]

not an accident the Warriors were left off

 

[Shanemansj13]

They will be fine, AD and Green are some of the best defenders in the NBA and Lebron is still a very good defender, especially in the playoffs.

 

[Gman]

Lakers:
PG: James
SG: Green
SF: Kuzma
PF: Davis
C: Cousins

Cousins would have to be a different player than he has shown recently... guy is a target on defense, too.

 

[Shanemansj13]

Gotta shoot more than one 3 in a season first lol

 

[Shanemansj13]

Cousins would have to be a different player than he has shown recently... guy is a target on defense, too.

McGee could even start MAYBE. Cousins will definitely play more minutes but possibly come off the bench.
