Who will blow up in the West?

Lot of team go all in for the next 2 years. Dallas, Phoenix, LA, Minny.. GSW. LAC.... if things turn bad, we may see some team going for a complete rebuild.
For the jazz, it seems for me that we are same as last year. Not good enough to compete for a top seed, but too good for tanking. Won't be surprised if season do not start well, seeing DA trading some players and go full tank this year and mext year. I do hope it does not happen. I hope we perform well and we add 2 good players who will make us a contender.

Suns will win the West.

My prediction is that the Suns will be the regular season champs in the West but they wont make it to the finals. Their big 3 dont really complement each other like the best star duos/trios of the past, and their depth is non-existent.

Regardless of how the win/loss records go or are you assuming that those who would be susceptible wont be anywhere near bottom?

You said blow up, like sell everything off for the sake of being bad

As I said, blow it up before the 2024-25 season to tank for 2025 & 2026 drafts. Doesnt matter if they blow it up midseason or in the next offseason... but teams who might be susceptible to choosing that path if this season goes poorly for them.

Bulls and Raptors look like candidates to do that in the east. In the west there arent equally obvious choices.
