Is this chart to be read as the teams add the top have had the most injured players or that the players they have had injured are the most impactful or what.
It's obvious that the teams at the top have been less fortunate with injuries but I'm just curious of how it's weighted or calculated or whatever
(I don't understand the LeBron war thing)
Niang averaging 16 PPG with the Hawks.

It is an excuse for the NBA to get another #1 pick to bolster the Heir Apparent so the Spurs are in immediate contention and they can start collecting the money from the future "next GOAT up". It was taking too long the regular way and the Spurs don't have the gravitas to warrant obvious ******** trades like the Lakers always seem to get.
All the anti Butler talk was hilarious. GSW got him and now they look like a contender. Memphis should have just gotten him and risked it
They’re winning the West.
GSW is obviously better, but I'd sell some of my stock for the price it seems to be going for right now. I don't like their depth overall—especially their bigs. I also question the quality of their point-of-attack defense. Their key players are all older, so durability could be an issue.
They're definitely gonna make the playoffs. I'd put good odds on them advancing past the first round. But beyond that, it gets pretty dicey, IMO.

Insane that they got a player that good for Wiggins+Anderson (both of whom could be considered negative contracts) and a mediocre protected first round pick. Even if it was a pure rental, that’s good value. Jimmy is still a top 20 player. They basically went from 0% chance at a title to ~5% which is a big swing.

It sounds like Embiid is completely cooked. That contract is a giant millstone. 4/240M after this year... I think its immovable. Are they able to move PG? Like the route to rebuild is almost moving Maxey... just a total **** show. Gonna be a long 4 years in Philly unless they get lucky on lotto night.
Sixers are so beyond ****ed. And they owe their pick top 4 protected the next two years (if they dont convey it), to OKC, so not even easy to tank and keep it.
