    For better and for worse… people are noticing us.

    It looks like everyone really liked our moves this offseason and has high hopes for us, that’s cool.

    I think the 2 seed is truly attainable. We are on the rise. People say we over-achieved last year but there wasn’t a lot of wins that we “stole”. It felt like we actually let quite a lot of wins turn to losses as our young team struggled with turnovers and execution down the stretch of games. I expect that to be better.

    Is New York going to have 6 players have career best seasons again or will there be some regression back to the players they always have been? Hartenstein was super important to them, how do they handle his departure?

    Can Philly stay healthy? Embiid continues to get older and injuries accumulate. PG had his healthiest season in years. Can he replicate that?

    Bucks just don’t have a lot of good role players around their stars. Can Middleton stay healthy? Will Lillard bounce back? Does Lopez decline sharply?

    I think there are more questions on the teams penciled in “ahead of us”. I’m ready to watch Magic basketball again.

    We split the series with Minnesota, Milwaukee, swept the Nuggets and took 3 of 4 from the Knicks.

    2 seed is attainable but I think 2nd round is the goal that *needs* to happen

    Did I make it before “how, we didn’t get a point guard?”

    Love this read! The Ringer has been one of the few outside supporters of what Orlando had been building since we drafted Jalen and Franz. I remember The Ringer was very high on our draft that year (2021).
