Many teams are currently in their window (Bucks, Celtics, Suns, Sixers, Nuggets, etc). Who are the teams that are still 2-3 years away, but will be championship juggernauts for years to come?

    That’s nice. Here’s a list of the best players on title teams over the last 30 years:

    Jokic, Curry, Giannis, LeBron, Kawhi, KD, Duncan, Dirk, Kobe, KG, DWade, Shaq, Billups, Jordan, Olajuwon

    Outside of the always outlier 04 Pistons(who may have had the greatest defense of all-time) and Chauncey Billups, every guy on this list is an MVP level player at their peak, top-25 all-time talent. You could easily argue ~8 or 9 of a top-15 all-time is in this group.

    Houston has nice pieces. I like what they’re building. History shows though that there is a hard ceiling on you if you don’t have the high end talent that historically wins you championships.
