The biggest threats to leapfrog Dallas, imo, are Denver, New Orleans and the Clippers.
They valued him over Ayton, because Simmons said (and Rusilo agreed): "I'd rather have Brunson at $25 million than Ayton on a MAX."
I honestly can't believe there are people here who think Brunson got overpaid. When you look at the declining contract and think about how much the cap is going to go up...it's going to be a bargain, imo.
How could you leave out the champs and Memphis? That's 5 teams who can leap frog them. If no further moves are forthcoming, they'll be hard pressed to finish 4th again barring any major injuries to said teams. This should be a very interesting season in both conferences.
