After silently judging as I scrolled through posts riddled with hot takes from 5 years ago I thought…

What are your hottest takes about how the NBA will look 5 years from now? (Go wild with your guesses, nobody will be judging you…)

My hot takes are

  1. Josh Giddy will be in the MVP race
  2. The Booklyn Nets will have either made or won the finals due to Bridges and Ben Simmons showing out
  3. LeBron will continue to refuse to retire, while still putting up 18/4/4. And will blame it on wanting to play with his wife’s uncles barbers daughters stepson 17 years from now.

      Yeah even 40 year old Durant will still probably be a decently efficient 20-something point per game scorer

      We don’t want him. If we sign anyone to let them coast to a ring, it’ll be Russ

          If any teams gm is as dumb as anyone in this sub, that fanbase should be concerned. But go off king, you seem very smart and likeable

            It was hyperbole for saying how on earth would you not want the most efficient shooter in the league? Sorry I forgot how dense Oklahoma is.

          Presti also isn’t as dumb as Kevin Durant, who left a WCF Game 7 team to join the Warriors and coast to 2 worthless rings

            In ~50 years, Durant will be remembered as a two-time champ and not as the guy who took the hardest road.

            Like, we won’t forget, but a couple generations later, that’ll just be a footnote.

            “Presti also isn’t as dumb as Kevin Durant”

            You talking about the guy who didnt want to pay Harden… and traded him for Kevin Martin lol

            You talking about the guy who drafted Cam Payne, Mitch Mcgray,Perry Jones.

            Yeah Presti gets credit now after he already burned down a future dynasty but hey hopefully he gets it right this time with more than 1 finals apperance and 4 WCF.
