Hardwood Knocks tips off its division-by-division breakdown with the ever-awesome Adam Spinella (@Spinella14), the Assistant Men’s Basketball Coach at Washington & Jefferson college, in addition to a contributor for BBallBreakdown and NBA Math itself. Dan gave him the option of where to start, and Adam, being the hero that he is, selected the Southeast division. So, on this episode, we’re breaking down all things Atlanta Hawks, Charlotte Hornets, Miami Heat, Orlando Magic and Washington Wizards.
For the outline-obsessed, here’s how this will work from now until the end of time: We’ll go over 2017-18 vitals before diving into the following topics:
- Best offseason move
- Worst offseason move/Biggest offseason loss
- Player most likely to break out (rookies included)
- Player most likely to be traded
- Will each team have a better offense or defense?
- Playoffs or nah?
- What’s the ceiling for reach team, regardless of their postseason status? (i.e. record predictions)
Ready? Set? Leggo!
