Feelings about the regular season

[NBASupes]

How did you feel about the regular season this year?

 

I felt there was only one elite team this year, Utah Jazz. 

Potentially three when the Lakers was healthy and the Nuggets with Murray 

Hawks with Nate massively moved up to my top 5 

When the season ended, this was my top 10 teams in the NBA 

1. Jazz- elite

2t. Lakers - nearly elite if healthy

2t. Nets - nearly elite if healthy

4t.Sixers - great

4t. Hawks - great

6. Bucks - nearly great, very good, without Donte, just very good.

7. Suns - very good

8. Clippers - very good

9. Mavs - very good

10. Knicks - nearly very good, good

After that, just good to bad teams left. I never thought Miami had enough this year and Oladipo injury was an axe to the back. 

Shock was Atlanta which had top 5 talent but bottom 5 coaching which improved that and distinctly improved but I don't credit 100% to Nate as the style fit, I could not predict but I knew Nate would get us in the playoffs. I didn't realize he would get us playing to our potential so soon even if I knew it was possible. 

Boston drop from very good to above average was a shock as well.

I had the Clippers winning it all to begin the season. I thought the Hawks would make it to round 2 and win a game or two from Philly.  We’ve exceeded my expectations and I had some high hopes to start for this Hawks team. 
 

I’m loving the ride. If it does end up being the Hawks and Clippers in the finals, I will have to sport my 93 Clippers Nique jersey and confuse folks. 

If this happens though I’m going to a game at State Farm and at Staples. 
 

I’ll be like a groupie following the Hawks around.
