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?

    Doesn’t work like that. Only so much salary to go around. Wolves traded all those picks but unless the new owners are willing to shell out a ton in luxury tax they’ll have to go. The new CBA prevents what you’re saying.

    OKC can do the same thing but let’s not pretend whoever they get with those picks and their current core can stay together. Chet and SGA will demand super maxes

      It restricts things like signing mle for teams who are over the luxury tax, but it doesn’t restrict drafting, which is where the thunders picks come in. Teams over the tax can also make trades as long as they take less salary in then what they send out. So the thunders could still do a sign and trade for example.
