Rockets' long-overdue Kevin Durant decision stands in the way of a championship (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Houston Rockets have spent the last couple of years fighting their way back to relevancy. With the help of Kevin Durant, a legit living legend, Houston has found the playoffs again. Now, the problem might be that Durant is the one in the way of the Rockets pushing toward the Finals. For anyone who has been a long-time fan of the Rockets, it's hard not to have mixed feelings about the last six years. From 2013 to 2020, Houston appeared in eight consecutive playoffs, making it as far as the co
The Raptors' biggest Kawhi Leonard question won't be answered for months (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Well, Kawhi Leonard is officially back in the 6ix, and Toronto Raptors fans are understandably excited. As good as this team actually could be, many people are still concerned about what's going on at the five. The answer might already be under their noses in a rotation of their existing options at center. It feels like a lifetime ago, but the Raptors won their first and only NBA Championship in 2019 with Leonard at the helm. He left after that season, heading out for a run with the LA Clippers
One huge flaw is standing between Victor Wembanyama and greatness (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The San Antonio Spurs' 2025-2026 season didn't quite go the way they wanted, largely thanks to the Knicks. Victor Wembanyama in particular seemed upset about it. Unless he can stop tripping over his own ego, 2026-2027 isn't going to look much better for the prospective face of the league. Up until the 2026 NBA Finals, Wemby was arguably the most popular star in the NBA. His fantastic height combined with his impressive range of basketball skills propelled him to elite status rather quickly. On t
Toppling the Spurs is the hurdle the Thunder must clear to win a championship (opens the original)
Read excerpt
After getting knocked out of the Western Conference Finals last season by the San Antonio Spurs, you can bet the Oklahoma City Thunder are looking to get one back. While beating the Spurs has to be a priority, that doesn't mean the Thunder are ready to chase the title again in 2027. The 2024-2025 season was huge for OKC. They finished with 68 wins and 14 losses, the best record in the West as well as the best record in the entire league. Considering how well they were playing, it wasn't a big su
Are the 76ers the next champions or the next failed superteam? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
NBA fans have seen this before. A franchise puts together a roster of living legends and bona fide superstars, only to watch the team fall flat on its face. But on rare occasions, superteams actually work out, and the Philadelphia 76ers might just be one of those exceptions. Philly has had an incredibly busy offseason. They went into the summer with a front line already anchored by Joel Embiid, Tyrese Maxey, and rookie standout V.J. Edgecombe. It was more than enough to get them to the playoffs,
