What teams need to do to make the playoffs

The 2019-20 NBA season is finally here, and there are a lot of teams with high hopes of making the playoffs

In the Western Conference the Los Angeles Lakers are the clear favorite to win the title. They have added All-Star forward Anthony Davis to pair with Lebron James and they have the talent and experience to be a force in the playoffs.

The Houston Rockets are also a team to watch in the West. They have added superstar point guard Russell Westbrook to team up with reigning MVP James Harden The Rockets also have a deep bench and will be a tough team to beat in the playoffs.

In the Eastern Conference it is wide open. The Milwaukee Bucks are the favorite, but they lost key reserve Malcolm Brogdon in Free agency The Philadelphia 76ers made some big changes in the offseason, adding Al Horford and Josh Richardson while losing Jimmy Butler The Boston Celtics are always a threat, and they added Kemba Walker to replace Kyrie Irving

The Indiana Pacers are a team on the rise in the East. They added Malcolm Brogdon to an already talented young core that includes Victor Oladipo Domantas Sabonis, and Myles Turner. The Pacers could be a sleeper team in the East and make a run at the conference title
