    Minny was a bugger for us last year but since they traded Towns I don't see that matchup being as hard this time. So who are our toughest matchups this year? Is the GSW curse finally broken? Are we going to give up 76 FTA to the Lakers? Can we deal with Embiid?

    If I recall correctly, the Rockets were a below average Road team last year.

    And below average against Eastern Conference teams for some reason......other than against Detroit and Washington DC.

    13-17 I believe.

    Boston still reigns supreme......in the 2nd Apron era.

    Good that they are not in the West. They give everyone problems.

    I would still say because the Front Court with Dillon is a step slow.

    • Motion Offenses
    • 3 Point Sniping Teams with guards and especially good stretching bigs
