Few notes from the article:
• Everyone "is still mad" at the T-pups, with one executive commenting on the Jrue trade in comparison while forgetting that Rudy was a 3x DPOY, 3x AS, 3x All-NBA, and 6 Def. All-NBA.
• Spurs, Jazz, and Rockets are the only teams in the West not really expected to compete. Some execs suspect Houston may surprise this year though.
• Everyone likes Kyrie's talent, no one likes that he's a Fruit Loop.
• Durant could "accelerate" things if he agitated Brooklyn enough, but Phoenix matching Ayton hurt them significantly in landing KD.
