Every year we hear of young teams on the rise that will break through to the playoffs or newly formed super teams that go from pre-tenders to championship favourites, but what about the other end of the spectrum? Which teams do y’all think will have disappointing seasons or crash out of the playoffs all together and why you do think they will?

    Hmmm. Okay here’s my hot take:

    Mobley’s development stalls, his offense is disrespected by most matchups. Continues to be uninspiring as a passer. It becomes obvious he will be best served as a 5, but the Cavs continue to play JA throughout the season. Mitchell and garland play good in the RS. Their whole defense and offense are not robust but again they fool everyone until the playoffs come around and get humiliated again.

    So a slow burn crash

      I appreciate the spice level of this take. I don’t agree with it, but we’ll see how the season plays out.

      honestly if they end up facing the Knicks again come playoffs, this has a very real chance of happening again. The way the Knicks are built, it’s almost a perfect kryptonite to the Cavs.

      Though if it’s any other team, I think Cavs could surprise
