The NBA season is around the corner, and to preview the upcoming year, our group of experts has been asked to think of one question for every team.<\/p>\n

Here it is for the Central division!<\/p>\n

Chicago Bulls:<\/strong> Who will they be?<\/h2>\n

While this seems like a perpetual question of the past few seasons, it feels particularly relevant ahead of 2024-25. Gone is the excellence of Alex Caruso and DeMar DeRozan, who both served pivotal roles in the Chicago Bulls\u2019 consecutive Play-In berths (and 2021-22 playoff appearance). Entering are recent top-10 picks Matas Buzelis and Josh Giddey, the former of whom is the Bulls\u2019 first lottery selection since 2020.<\/p>\n

Coby White, still only 24 years old, should see another uptick in offensive responsibilities following his 2023-24 breakout and DeRozan\u2019s departure. Ayo Dosunmu, also 24 years old, showcased some nifty second-side creation while shooting 40 percent from deep last season and being a feisty point-of-attack pest. Dalen Terry has struggled through two years, but is just 22 and clearly has some intrigue as a spunky wing.<\/p>\n

There are a lot of youthful options on this Bulls squad — one that shouldn\u2019t be very competitive. Although, the state of the Eastern Conference may open the door for another Play-In appearance, which is good for Chicago\u2019s decision-makers and bad for its long-term outlook.<\/p>\n

Yet amid all this youth remain veterans Zach LaVine and Nikola Vucevic. Lonzo Ball is set to rejoin the lineup as well after a 2.5-year injury hiatus (and looked good in his preseason debut!<\/a>). How does Chicago balance all this? Management and ownership are resolutely determined to keep churning out 35ish wins rather than ever embracing a full-on rebuild.<\/p>\n

How do those priorities potentially impact Buzelis, Giddey and others? Will a suitor emerge for LaVine finally? Is there a chance they move off of the puzzling contract they handed Vucevic last year? A yes to either of the final two inquiries would be a substantial boon for the franchise.<\/p>\n

The Bulls have to pick a direction here, and it\u2019s plausible the win-loss record finally forces their hand in a manner previous years did not. They need to give their young guys the optimal runway to illuminate the beginnings of a hierarchy. Another infusion of talent with a high-end lottery pick in 2025 wouldn\u2019t hurt either. Two years of floating through space has led to an opportunity for some conviction. It\u2019s time to capitalize. I\u2019m dubious they will, but they should.\u00a0–Jackson Frank<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Cleveland Cavaliers: <\/strong>Will this be the final run for the Cavs’ Core Four?<\/h2>\n

The Cavs are entering year three of their experiment with Darius Garland, Donovan Mitchell, Jarrett Allen, and Evan Mobley. Injuries have derailed their time together — especially last season when a broken jaw limited Garland and a knee injury forced Mobley to miss time. Even in the postseason, the Cavs missed Allen for eight games.<\/p>\n

Still, when they\u2019ve all played, they\u2019ve been pretty hard to beat. They were seventh in defensive rating last season and the best defense the year prior. The real question has been the offense, where some of the redundancy of the core rears its head. Can Mobley and Allen coexist when Mobley hasn\u2019t progressed as a shooter? Can Garland and Mitchell properly split ball-handling duties?<\/p>\n

Enter Kenny Atkinson.<\/p>\n

Cleveland’s new head coach has a history of making the most of his rosters offensively and has been labeled an offensive genius for the way he utilizes his big men in unique ways to create space. It\u2019s just what the doctor ordered.<\/p>\n

That said, it adds more pressure for Cleveland to look better offensively this season after falling to 16th last year. And if that doesn\u2019t happen, then it raises further questions about the viability of this core. The potential is there. They were eighth offensively in Mitchell\u2019s first season with the group.<\/p>\n

We could chalk up last season’s dip in offensive efficiency to injuries (and a bad year for Garland), and the Cavs’ best basketball is ahead of them. But if they don\u2019t display that this season, especially with their new offensive wiz of a coach, then perhaps changes are around the corner for this group.\u00a0–Es Baraheni<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Detroit Pistons:<\/strong> How much will they learn about their key core pieces?<\/h2>\n

At the very least, Detroit\u2019s season shouldn\u2019t be worse than last year\u2019s disaster. With an upgraded roster and improved coaching, the Pistons should eclipse 14 wins. Additions of veterans like Tobias Harris, Malik Beasley and (a full season of) Simone Fontecchio will elevate the floor. But Detroit still may not contend for the Play-In Tournament, even in a weaker Eastern Conference.<\/p>\n

For this season to be considered a success, the Pistons must learn as much as possible about their young core around Cade Cunningham. Can Jaden Ivey improve his process to cement himself as the second guard of the future? Will Jalen Duren bounce back on the defensive end after a shaky sophomore season? Can Ausar Thompson and Ron Holland coexist on the floor, given their three-point shooting limitations?<\/p>\n

There\u2019s a world where Detroit wins enough games to push for the Play-In. Cunningham\u2019s development into a true All-Star, progression from other young pieces and strong play from Harris, Fontecchio and Isaiah Stewart could get them there. Regardless of the eventual win total, the Pistons must feel confident about which young players will be key core pieces and which might be expendable in trades or free agency one day.\u00a0–Ben Pfeifer<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Indiana Pacers:<\/strong> What version of Tyrese Haliburton will we see?<\/h2>\n

On Jan. 8, the Indiana Pacers pulled out a gutsy 133-131 win over the Boston Celtics. But the win came at a cost — it derailed Tyrese Haliburton\u2019s monster offensive season.<\/p>\n

In that game, Haliburton injured his hamstring, and after that, he was never the same. Look at the difference in his scoring, playmaking, efficiency, and overall offensive impact on the team before and after that day.<\/p>\n

119.6<\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n

When Haliburton is firing on all cylinders, the Pacers have a claim as being the best offense in the sport. Couple that with a defense that improved as the season went along (26th in defensive rating before the All-Star Break; 18th afterward), and you have a team with the statistical profile to make a deep playoff run. But if Haliburton can\u2019t get healthy, regression seems likely for the Pacers.<\/p>\n

On the surface, the answer to this question appears simple. Haliburton has had a whole offseason to rest. Of course, he\u2019ll be healthy in 2024-25. Unfortunately, if it were that straightforward, we wouldn\u2019t be discussing this storyline in this article.<\/p>\n

Haliburton is putting together quite the medical list. Along with his ailing hamstring, Haliburton dealt with back spasms throughout the entire postseason. During the Olympics, Team USA didn’t announce that the star guard was dealing with a minor leg injury, according to ESPN’s Brian Windhorst<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Is this just a string of bad luck? Or was it a harbinger of things to come? The Pacers\u2019 season (and long-term future) will be determined by whether Haliburton can get healthy and return to his pre-injury ways.\u00a0–Mat Issa<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Milwaukee Bucks:<\/strong> What version of Damian Lillard shows up?<\/h2>\n

When the Milwaukee Bucks traded for Damian Lillard in September 2023, the belief was they were pairing Giannis Antetokounmpo with an absolute flamethrower of a shooter who also boogied his way downhill at rarified levels. For the first time in Antetokounmpo\u2019s career, he would, perhaps, be flanked by a legitimate offensive engine worthy of snagging on-ball possessions from him and ease the Greek Freak\u2019s burden.<\/p>\n

Despite seeing his 2022-23 campaign cut short by injury, Lillard appeared excellent both on film and in the box score. Averaging 32 points on 65 percent true shooting, he earned All-NBA Third Team honors, was a dynamite shooter and exploded to the rim with regularity. He was superb. That\u2019s who the Bucks anticipated would be joining them.<\/p>\n

Instead, Lillard looked like a 33-year-old star guard who\u2019d been beset by injuries in recent seasons and was now experiencing their coalescing toll. He lacked the burst and vigor associated with his foremost campaigns and struggled immensely on defense. Inside and outside the arc, he scored less effectively than his peak years. He drove less often and effectively. Regardless of Antetokounmpo\u2019s playoff health and its impact on the Bucks’ early exit, Lillard was not the player they needed to reach their lofty aspirations.<\/p>\n

Since then, Lillard has spoken about how his 2023 offseason — given the uncertainty around the ripple effect of his trade request — limited some training habits, which hindered his 2023-24 performance. He\u2019s reportedly enjoyed a normal, eye-opening offseason this time around. Whether there\u2019s credence to all that is unknown, really. But the Bucks will certainly hope it\u2019s valid.<\/p>\n

Not only do they require an elevated level of play from the man brought in to be Antetokounmpo\u2019s co-star, Lillard\u2019s perceived premier athleticism embeds another necessary wrinkle. Even with some good free agent additions, this is an old and slow roster around Antetokounmpo. Last year, Lillard exacerbated that. In his prime, he would not.<\/p>\n

If 2023-24 was truly a health-related blip rather than the beginning of a swift decline, he can offer both athletic verve and a lethal offensive game to complement Milwaukee\u2019s franchise bedrock. It is the most crucial factor in establishing what this team is capable of in 2024-25. Lillard was still good during his inaugural season with the Bucks. He\u2019ll have to be much better to help guide them where they intend to go. –Jackson Frank<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
