On the Cavaliers doing to the Magic what the Knicks did to them last season, Milwaukee saving up their competitive juices, New York's rabid hustle cult, Minnesota vanquishing their playoff inexperience, a nerve-inducing game in OKC and more.
After a dull weekend of Game 1s, a doubleheader between Knicks/Sixers and then Nuggets/Lakers delivered an excess of drama. You never know when a basketball cult might be formed or broken.
Previewing Knicks/Sixers, Bucks/Pacers, Cavs/Magic, Celtics/Heat, Nuggets/Lakers, Wolves/Suns and Clippers/Mavericks.
The Celtics finished in the top spot in Net Rating for the second straight season, while the Thunder jumped up from 28th to 14th to second.
The season is over for Cade Cunningham, Devin Vassell, Vince Williams Jr., Deni Avdija, Alperen Sengun and Collin Sexton, but their play and promise for next season are very encouraging.
