Milwaukee Bucks
With Andre Drummond and Anthony Davis, the Bucks have a promising front-court that could take them into the playoffs next season.
Not only were the Milwaukee Bucks able to get rid of Brandon Jennings and Monta Ellis, but they got rid of their entire roster aside from Mike Dunleavy and promising prospect John Henson.
What the Bucks have done proves they're not afraid to make bold moves in an effort to construct a dynasty.
Can Deron Williams come to Milwaukee and help Anthony Davis and Andre Drummond win the franchise's second championship?
Phoenix Suns
The Phoenix Suns have made amazing strides by acquiring Josh Smith, Jimmer Fredette, Ramon Sessions, and Tobias Harris.
With only $30,192,700 being shared across Butler, Fredette, Sessions, Hawes, Vesley, Gee, Outlaw, Moultire, Harris, Shengalia, and Miller, the Phoenix Suns already have depth.
What more could they add? As of now, the shooting-guard position, center position, and power-forward position, all need addressing in free-agency.
Can they resign Josh Smith and pair him with O.J. Mayo?
Sacramento Kings
The Sacramento Kings had a fairly well-balanced front and back court coming into the season.
Now, the Kings have formed the best back-court tandem in Damian Lillard and Russell Westbrook.
However, they have a gaping hole at both forward and the center positions. With a mere $25,431,056 being used in cap space, the Sacramento Kings are players for some big names in free-agency.
One question remains: Will they keep signing guards?
Can they sign Al Jefferson to add much needed post presence?
The Bad
San Antonio Spurs
The big three of Tim Duncan, Tony Parker, and Manu Ginobili, are no more. Instead, the Spurs have assembled a plethora of talent that fails to synergize.
This wouldn't be terrible had the San Antonio Spurs retained their draft picks and tried to re-build through the draft, but the Spurs have traded away all their picks and continue to shop their remaining ones. Does JR Wiles have plans to restore the Spurs to greatness?
Those plans will have to wait another 3 seasons. The San Antonio Spurs are over the cap until the 2014-2015 off-season.
Orlando Magic
It looked like the Orlando Magic were off to the right start, acquiring Paul George.
That all changed when the Orlando Magic traded away Paul George for Xavier Henry and the #7 pick.
Certainly a questionable move that raises some eyebrows from everyone in the league.
The Magic are also over the cap until the 2014-2015 off-season.
Can they add some talent and build around Michael-Kidd Gilchrist?
