I don't think that is the case. Just GS is in a league of its own which makes the rest of the teams seem underwhelming.
It isn't necessarily that the 3-5 teams are that good for teams in that range, it's that 3-9 are all really good teams where if 1 of the teams in that range has a bad injury or a disappointing stretch, they could miss the playoffs. So the margin for error is very slim.
Even the Suns, Mavs, Grizz should be better than last year.
