After winning the Finals this year, the nuggets are pretty much bringing back the same team without Bruce brown but other teams like the bucks, Celtics and suns have improved. Imo I think the next 2-3 championships will be won by either the Bucks or Celtics and I think the Nuggets will make the finals again this year but the only way they might win again in the future is to either make a trade for a 3rd star or get much better depth.
It’s still Jokic and just like Steph, I am not counting any team with Jokic out of contention.
While East has been a cold wae with Bucks and Celtics stacking up arsenal. West is going to be a bloodbath with Warriors, Lakers, Suns and Nuggets having a real shot. Grizzlies and Kings are hidden in there but I don’t know from a playoff standpoint how they will fare against the experienced teams.
