I do wonder if the hesitation on including picks is to have the full allotment from 26-31 owned jic, someone asks out where you can technically have 5 picks (3 non-consecutive and 2 swaps).
But hell OKC, UTA, & BKN have way more picks to offer so it shouldn't be that.
We still have our picks in 26, 28, 30 even if they decide to move off of 29 and 31. It's not completely barren for a rebuild or should a disgruntled star become available.
There just doesn't seem to be any deals available to move off both 29 and 31 for sure. Maybe one.
11 titles would be the 5 in the 80s, 4 in the 00s, 2010, 2020.
Even if most of us in here are in our 30s that's still 5 chips dawg. Outside of the Spurs and Bulls of the 90s that's the most in that time frame.
And we've been contenders in every decade at different points since I've been alive...
You ain't in your 40s? 👀 My bad G
If history is any indicator, there's going to be a new champion next season with how the parity is and Boston isn't winning for another double digit year period.
I ain't tripping. It is what it is.
