Six lineups we are the most excited to see in 2018-19

After all the upheaval and player movement from the NBA off-season, the dust has finally cleared and rosters have taken shape. Even Rodney Hood got signed, presumably so Cavs team executives could sneak in a vacation before training camp begins.

And while there were some dramatic upheavals of power with LeBron James moving to Los Angeles and the Kawhi Leonard/DeMar Derozan trade, the mystery of who wins the NBA title isn’t overly compelling this year. Not to mention that the Over/Under win totals from Vegas are out, which are usually eerily accurate and serve as a spoiler to the entire season. But here at Fastbreak Breakfast we don’t watch for “Who Will Win the Championship?” We watch for the stories from starting block to finish line. And one of the more entertaining parts of each season starting afresh is getting to see some brand new lineups.

So which of the new 5-man units will be the most dominant? Which will be the most combustible? Which young players are going to mesh the best with their teammates? Which ones have the highest capacity for Shaqtin’ a Fool?

To help pick the most compelling new lineups of the 2018-19 season, comedian Sean Keane (@seankeane) joins the latest episode of Fastbreak Breakfast. Keane is a writer for Yardbarker and a host of the Roundball Rock podcast. So whether you prefer sheer watchability or schadenfreude, one of these new lineups should have you covered.

Fastbreak Breakfast episodes are also available for download on iTunes and Soundcloud.
