20. Denver Nuggets
What has been most surprising for the Denver Nuggets to start the season has been their inconsistent offense. At the moment, they currently have a bottom 10 offense in the league and that’s something that simply will not fly if this team has any hopes of coming out of the Western Conference this season.
Perhaps the return of Jamal Murray is the antidote to the team’s current problems.
19. Atlanta Hawks
Trae Young recently said that the regular season is simply boring. For a team as talented and as young as the Atlanta Hawks are, that’s something that they’re going to have to figure out if they’re going to be a serious contender in the Eastern Conference. The regular season can be as boring as watching a snail cross the road, but that doesn’t mean that they can simply sleepwalk through it and expect to be a true contender in the East.
