Zach Lowe: 骑士队聘请Kenny Atkinson为新任主教练是休赛期首要任务，这将对球队未来，特别是Darius Garland的未来产生深远影响。球队接下来需要解决Donovan Mitchell的续约问题，以及如何平衡现有四核阵容（Garland, Mitchell, Mobley, Allen）的长期发展。尽管阵容存在一些问题（例如两个控卫都需要控球权，两个内线球员投篮能力不足），但目前还不是拆散这套阵容的时候。Rich Paul对Garland的表态暗示了交易的可能性，但骑士队目前没有拆散他的计划，他们认为现在还不是时候。 Jonathan Givony: Atkinson是一位优秀的教练，他拥有丰富的篮球知识和高水平的篮球思维，并且擅长球员培养。骑士队拥有很多天赋，如果他们能保持现有阵容并通过选秀补充阵容，他们将成为一支强大的球队。骑士队阵容昂贵，这可能会导致他们不得不交易一些球员来维持财务平衡。 Jonathan Givony: Atkinson是一位优秀的教练，他拥有丰富的篮球知识和高水平的篮球思维。骑士队拥有很多天赋，如果他们能保持现有阵容并通过选秀补充阵容，他们将成为一支强大的球队。 Zach Lowe: 尽管骑士队的阵容存在一些问题（例如两个控卫都需要控球，两个内线球员投篮能力不足），但现在还不是拆散这些球员的时候。球队需要探索新的战术安排，例如让内线球员尝试更多三分球，以充分发挥现有球员的潜力。
