[Discussion Thread] Undefeated Preseason? Potential Lineups? Season predictions?

Miller was always a trade candidate IMO based on us overpaying him. I can see E’twaun, but I seriously doubt JJ would get shipped, at least not this year since one of the benefits of having him is veteran leadership to help with the development of our young guys. It’s also hard to judge JJ by 3 preseason games when we haven’t ran any plays for him. I feel like his play will kick up once the regular season starts up.

I’m trying to remain unbiased, but I do believe we have a shot at the playoffs. I just don’t think a top 4 seed is attainable with how talented the West is. The one thing I keep telling my buddies is that Griff said we’d be buyers at the deadline if we were in contention for a playoff spot. That could change everything. But for now, I’d say 7 or 8 seed is more realistic.
