Biggest Questions
- Is there a logjam at the power forward and center positions? There seems to be a handful of guys at those positions that will be fighting for crucial playing time. How will this affect continuity and rotations?
- Can Damian Lillard win his first MVP award? After seeing what he was able to do in the bubble last season, it’s not out of the question to think he could have the best season of anyone in the NBA.
