DALLAS MAVERICKS Last season: 39-43, fell in Play-In, traded Luka Dončić for some reason? Offseason: earned the No. 1 pick, for some reason? Everything's legal now. C: Dereck Lively – yeah,
Howdy! In a few years, when the Warriors fall, this might be the collection of the five worst owners in professional sports. PREVIOUSLY: ATLANTIC, SOUTHEAST. LOS ANGELES LAKERS Last season: 50-32, somehow traded for Luka Dončić, lost in opening round to Minnesota even though head coach J.J. Redick played
Hey. Welcome to the week. Let's talk about the worst NBA division. Perpetually, bad. Please subscribe, better NBA teams in follow-up emails. Or, maybe you're from Florida. In that case, we thank your beautiful state for the band Saigon Kick. ORLANDO MAGIC Last season: 41-41, lost

It was a choice, not boring readers throughout summer with my gee-where's-this-goin' thoughts on restricted free agent Josh Giddey. The Bulls long ago made a public choice with Giddey's future, identifying Alex Caruso's prime as its equal. There was nothing new to pass
