You're not good enough to realistically challenge for a championship, but never have a shot at getting lottery talent from skating into the playoffs every year just to leave your fanbase disappointed. The Toronto Raptors in the East, and the LA Clippers in the West, are both arguably in this position. However, both franchises have accomplished more in the last few years than in their entire history. So the question is... is it time for each team to blow it up? Also, the NBA second round, despite their blowouts.still has some intriguing matchups. Who will win the battle of Texas?

John Wall has led the Wizards, the Greek Freak has led the Bucks, and we haven't even discussed the two-man MVP race going head to head out West in Russell Westbrook and James Harden. Who has been the most impressive thus far in the first round?

Of course, the news could have been much worse, so does this change the outcome of the Western Conference?

He is the first American basketball player to participate in four olympic games, and may shatter multiple USA records this time around. But, what does that mean for Melo's legacy?

Thankfully, the Summer League is in motion, and the 2016 Olympic Games will cushion the blow slightly. However, we are looking for a more permanent solution, and have tried to give the WNBA a look to see how it compares to the pro game, and ponder whether a "WNBA Select Team" could compete in the Summer League.

However, this season sees them struggling to even get into the race, let alone win it. What exactly has gone wrong in Chicago, and why are they hovering around .500? Will Derrick Rose ever be an all-star again? What do they miss more: Joakim Noah's defense or his ponytail?
