As we continue our NBA preview series, we take a look at 10 players that will disappoint in 2014-15

The 2014-15 NBA season is on the horizon. Expectations are high, optimism is at a premium and there every team is undefeated at this point. Though, none of that will last long.

It’s the nature of the NBA, unfortunately.

Nevertheless, there are a myriad of previews taking a look at why this team will flourish, or why that team won’t. Why Kobe Bryant will return to form, and why Derrick Rose’s return to Chicago’s lineup will be the difference in their aspirations this seasons.

Building off that premise, I compiled a list of players who will disappoint this season — based on those such expectations and optimism.

It’s not a list of players that will necessarily have horrible seasons, just a few players who won’t have the years that many believe they will.
