Assume the AD situation would be the same, and let's say Rondo was out for contact tracing like Dennis. I'm personally torn; in the end, though, I think the "offseason" really did result in a true upgrade, and I think last year's team would have even more losses.

I think it would be a bit worse. I don’t think it has set in for a lot of fans how weird this season is.

Without the #2 and #3 scorer of the team, it will be worse.

Without AD probably not.

The team this season won a decent number of games they shouldn't have won... Not saying it was pure luck, but it makes the record better than it should be.

No. Rondo/Bradley have missed a ton of games. Green is the same.

Jav/Dwight would be nice but Trezz has played well. AD, well, same AD would be injured.

AD would still be injured and he’s the other piece besides LeBron that makes this thing go from both last year and this year. Record would be relatively the same.

No way last year’s roster could sustain.

They would be on par with fellow WC finalist Nuggets record wise. Schroder and Harrell have won them a couple of games each with their scoring.

You know Gasol isn't the only thing we changed right?
