NBA tier list according to The Athletic – Thoughts?

Pretty generous tbh. I would put us in the playoff tier, which is still impressive as I would have been happy for us to be in the play-in or better tier before this season started.
Thunder a little high tbh
We ain’t better than the sixers
We aren’t better than healthy pelicans
Magic are equal to us
I’d say swap thunder and suns with pelicans and sixers
Timberwolves in contenders sure is something
Fair. I think the big thing for us is matchups. If the playoff bracket stacks well for us we can make a deeper run than people think but if we get denver or minny in round 2 it’s gonna be GGs
I like how there is no currently openly tanking team. It just goes from “maybe oughta be tanking” to “what in the world is going on here.”
They have us up too high. We are on the brink of contending forms championship, only dudea on our team that have been in a playoff series are Lu and Shai over three years ago
We really are on the brink we just need a true pf and to move giddey to running the bench unit
So clearly this is a reasonable realm to call ourselves contenders. The Athletic actually writes good stuff and whether we feel it or not, this is a fair ranking so far.
We’re 2nd in the super competitive West right now and we’re a bucket from being 1st. That would be inflating our actual ranking, but 4th-5th in the league is a pretty fair assessment.
Thunder high
When is the Thunder going to stop rebuilding, they been rebuilding for 6 years /s
