26. Charlotte Bobcats – Larry Brown left (who blames him) and Gerald Wallace and/or Stephen Jackson are likely on their way out as well via trade. It’s hard to imagine that losing Tyson Chandler and Raymond Felton could hamper a team so badly, but as seen in the pair’s play with their new team’s, they were obviously difference makers.
27. Washington Wizards – Trading Gilbert Arenas officially gave John Wall the keys to the franchise, but until he returns from injury, the team’s future remains in the hands of Kirk Hinrich, Rashard Lewis, JaVale McGee and Andray Blatche – I’m not impressed.
28. Minnesota Timberwolves – LeBron is right, it would feel much better to see Kevin Love on a winning team, but until he hits free agency and says “peace out” to Minnesota, get used to nightly 20/20’s from Love, and a whole bunch of losses from the T-Wolves.
29. Cleveland Cavaliers – When Mo Williams and Anderson Varejao move from your team’s second and third best players to it’s first and second, it’s slightly easier to see why LeBron bolted for Miami. However, a top-three pick in the draft is a fair consolation prize, right?
30. Sacramento Kings – This team is talented no doubt, but until they can sort out the off-court problems of their top-two talents (Tyreke Evans and DeMarcus Cousins), bottom-dwellers is what the Kings will continue to be.
