    Welcome back to The Atlantic Files, where we're diving headfirst into everything you need to know about the upcoming NBA season. This week, we're all about breaking down the Southwest and Pacific Divisions, giving our thoughts on Joel Embiid's rest strategy, and reacting to the most exciting and eyebrow-raising moments from the preseason. Buckle up as we get you ready for the start of the 2024-25 season with the hottest takes and insider insights! 2024-25 NBA Southwest Division Preview: Can the Mavs Bounce Back? We kick things off with a deep dive into the Southwest Division, where Luka Doncic and the Dallas Mavericks will try to shake off last season's NBA Finals struggles and make a statement. Can they get back to the promised land, or will it be another year of "what ifs"? We also break down the Grizzlies' hopes with everyone healthy again, the Pelicans' potential with a (hopefully) healthy Zion Williamson, the young Spurs' outlook with Victor Wembanyama in the fold, and the Rockets' young core improving. Pacific Division Breakdown: The Land of Big Names and High Expectations Moving on to the Pacific Division, where superstars and drama are always in abundance. Will the Golden State Warriors' "big two" keep defying Father Time, or will the Clippers finally stay healthy and make some noise? And let's not forget about the Lakers, who seem to have found the fountain of youth for LeBron James. We analyze all the teams, including the Suns' championship aspirations with their newly-formed super team and the Kings looking to build on last season's playoff run. Get ready for some bold predictions and potentially hot takes! Joel Embiid to Skip Back-to-Back Games: Smart Move? Joel Embiid recently announced his plan to sit out some back-to-back games this season, raising questions and a few eyebrows. Is it smart load management for a guy with a history of injuries, or does it set a tone that might frustrate fans? We discuss the impact this decision could have on the Sixers' regular-season success, as well as what it means for Embiid's MVP aspirations and the team's overall strategy. Plus, we touch on the broader implications for the NBA's ongoing load management debate. Preseason Reactions: Who's Impressing and Who's Concerning? The preseason may not count, but it sure does matter for evaluating the state of the league. We break down the biggest takeaways, from standout rookie performances to some early-season chemistry issues. Which teams are looking ready to hit the ground running, and which ones might still be finding their rhythm? Spoiler alert: Some big names have been underwhelming, while a few lesser-known players are turning heads. Players and Teams to Watch as the Regular Season Approaches With the regular season just around the corner, we highlight some of the players and teams you should keep an eye on. From dark horse MVP candidates to squads that could surprise—or disappoint—we've got you covered on who's primed to make waves. Whether it's a young star set to break out or a team quietly building momentum, find out who's worth your attention when the games start to count for real.
