 An interesting followup question: Who will finish close games?

Washington: That’s the Big Five, no doubt.

Atlanta: Who cares, they’re tanking.

Miami: Could see Olynyk coming in for Winslow, with Johnson moving to the "3." That would be a good lineup against the Cavs for instance.

Orlando: Lots of variables here. Jonathon Simmons will finish close games for them; I’m sure of that. If Payton doesn’t improve shooting, Mack might close for him sometimes. Vucevic maybe the best player on roster, but could see Biyombo in at the end for defense, or Speights to space the floor.

Charlotte: Maybe Williams in for MKG if they need shooting.

Very respectable projections. For Charlotte though Steve Clifford slready said Marvin Williams will be the starting PF for them and rightfully so.

Man, Atlanta’s gonna be rough. They might be the least watchable team this year, Chicago’s obviously up there but there’s some intrigue with Markkanen and Dunn at least. Schröder will be entertaining and Collins might have some moments but other than that it’ll be pretty less than spectacular. Although I do like Taurean Prince, but he seems like the kind of player that would shine on a good team, not a bottom 3 team

 It will be interesting to see what numbers Kemba Walker puts up this season after several good years, he made the jump to All Star last season and another good year should mean a return to the AS game especially with a lot of Eastern big guns having moved West. Also he could have the chance to be in line for a super max if he had a really good year, so the enticement to make the step up to a 25ppg guy is very high.

The Hawks I agree are in full rebuild but Schroeder will put up good stats although he will be a heavily marked man.

Nice projections. 

The only one that stands out a bit to me is Gortat. I think 8 and 7 is low for him considering he averaged a double-double last year. I don’t think a healthy Mahinmi takes away from his production too much. I think 9 ppg and 10.5 rpg is probably more likely.
