Isn't Cam Payne a better version of Elf?

LaMelo and Uber in transition works.  Uber best with a fast pace.

Dimwillie -- just like in the Simpsons -- got it.

Bulls. 
Don't know if it will click, but they have an interesting team with depth:

LonZo Ball  - LaVine - DeRozan - Patrick Williams - Vucevic
Coby White - Caruso - Troy Brown - Markkanen -  pickup a vet min backup

I thought they were a random mess before.  Coby much better as a backup PG.  I'm not a LaVine fan, but DeMar could mentor him (steer him off taking bad shots).  And their defense will be suspect.  Plus they could have trouble working out the pecking order.  Will Ball be allowed to handle and orchestrate, or will Zach and DeMar demand to handle, and Ball stuck off-ball?

Still they upped their talent/competitive level significantly.
Could get off to a slow start as they try to figure things out.  But also could be in the playoff mix.

Bulls and Wiz did substantial revamps.  Will be interesting to watch.

Washington and Chicago have the firepower to compete with Charlotte and Boston for play-in spots. Lack of D makes that their ceiling. I hope they didn’t overspend to get there.

Impressive haul for Westbrook. 

They looked tough as hell in the playoffs, admittedly with Westbrook in the cut. 

All of the Marc Berman's of the world, with their dipshit theories about Beal's free agency. 

This is a deep team they've collected around him, and Wes Unseld Jr. is a defensive stalwart.  They are going to be a lot better.

Nuggets saw enough of Fredette. He’s already off the team.

Getting deeper.  We may very well cash in their 2022 #1 pick. 

Just inked Kelly Oubre. 

Looking at the third Ball Brother.  Just let Graham walk to the Pelicans. 

Plumlee-McDaniels-Jones-Carey

Hayward-Oubre-Bridges-Washington

Ball-Rozier-Bouknight

Could use some more beef and brawn at PF-C, but athletic roster.
