Bucks likely the only one with a credible path. The other teams are heading into their dark ages
Heat I guess have a chance as well. Not seeing much for the other squads unless a gift falls into their laps

Bucks? Nah. Look for the one that still has its first round picks.

Only team I have a shred of faith in out of that list is Milwaukee, and it's not to win the championship.

I think all are pretty washed unless we see an unexpected move.
If those teams made an all star team of old guys they could be pretty good as long as they stay healthy.
Any team with a healthy Giannis has a shot but I think Dame is washed.

Giannis is the only player here that could potentially lead his team to a title next year, though the rest of that team is getting ancient and the shine from the 2021 finals is wearing off. I'd say none of the above but vote Bucks if I had to pick one

Didn't cost them during the championship run because the Hawks weren't a great conference finals opponent and they were able to win a couple of games without him but he's another guy who's had trouble staying healthy when it matters.
Seems like he doesn't know how to pace himself in the regular season. For a guy who's so dependent on physical domination, that's a bad idea.

I'm surprised you didn't include the Bulls! haha. DeMar turns 35 soon and Vucevic is a year younger.

Not LA. Not Bucks. Unless they're on HGH.
