With Atkinson's system & their perimeter talent I think they'll score, and weirdly for this year I actually think the other guy they got in that Lakers deal could have the bigger impact on their record. The question is what do they do down low - do you run some hilariously small lineups with Booker essentially as the 5, or do you actually play Mozgov & try to fit him in the system or play at a slower pace? Or will they give a lot of minutes to Jarrett Allen & Aleksander Valenkov, who I know little about but very much doubt are ready.
