The NBA's latest trend is that the boundaries between rebuilding and Win Now have become clear.
Teams that want to win attract all-star players. Strengthen the core even more. 'Big 2' is basic and makes even 'Big 3' and 'Big 4'. Add to this the right teamwork and outstanding role players.
Then the conditions of the winning team are completed. Only one team reaches its goal. There are many setbacks in this process. Players who are protesting against team policy, like Kyrie Irving and James Harden, want an open trade.
There is also bad news about injuries. These teams create situations in which neither the present nor the future is secured. On the other hand, some teams quickly grow their power and settle in the ranks of the favorites. It's an era of 'high risk, high return'.
On the other hand, it is a great opportunity for 'rebuilding team'. Gather rookie draft picks and promise the future. And when the team's power is in place, there is also a case of great success that secures both the present and the future.
A case in point is the Oklahoma City Thunder, who emerged as a strong player in the West last season with promising players bursting their potential.
ESPN selected the 'Top 5 Brightest Future Teams' in the United States.
The first place is the San Antonio Spurs.
San Antonio collected 12 first-round picks, trading all-star players including Kawhi Leonard, Derma DeRozan, Derek White and DeYonte Murray.
And it's Victor Wembanyama's second year this season. Wembanyama, who won the Rookie of the Year award last season, is expected to be more powerful. Chris Paul was recruited as his strong supporter.
Oklahoma City, which has established itself as one of the strongest teams in the West, still has a plethora of options. There are 13 first-round picks coming in and 10 first-round picks that can be traded.
Third place is the Brooklyn Nets. Brooklyn is an unlucky team. Kevin Durant, James Harden, Kyrie Irving, and others 'Big 3' were tied to challenge for president, but a disastrous failure.
In the end, he disbanded the big three and even traded to Miguel Bridges.
There are 15 first-round picks coming in. There are also 12 first-round picks that can be traded. Brooklyn's rebuilding starts this season.
