With the NBA regular season winding down the playoff picture for both conferences are starting to shape up as the top teams are pulling away and the majority of teams are still fighting for the last couple playoff spots. Let’s go through my top three teams that nobody in the playoffs wants to face.
The Milwaukee Bucks are my first team as many believe the Bucks are the best overall team in the league as they have arguably the best player in Giannis Antetokounmpo and other great players like all star Jrue Holiday, Brook Lopez, Bobby Portis, Kris Middleton and others. With the Bucks having the best record in the league they are going to be a nightmare for any team in the league to play.
My second scariest team is the Los Angeles Lakers and this comes with a caveat, if the Lakers can stay healthy which is a big ask they can beat just about any team in the league as they are the only team with two top ten players in LeBron James and Anthony Davis, the Lakers are beefed up their roster at the trade deadline by making smart moves that fit around LeBron and AD, this team has arguably the highest ceiling as they can either be a one and done or a championship team in June.
Lastly I have the Phoenix Suns, the suns are like the Lakers as they have a very high ceiling but staying healthy is going to be a big ask as they have some injury prone players in Kevin Durant, Chris Paul, Devin Booker and Deandre Ayton. This suns team has a very high ceiling but with how the roster is constructed they don’t have a lot of perimeter defense and are very top heavy which relies more on their star players.
