Best Starting Lineups in the NBA

Dude, they are gonna have 4 near or max guys on their roster.

But, you might be right for one more year.

That payroll when the Simmons max contract kicks in says title or bust.

You can't pay Horford and Harris that much to lose in the Conference Finals.

All good points, but the one diff for them is I believe their top guys are all under control for at least 3-4 more years.

They are.

This isn't a point of contention.

I'm saying, you don't go deep into the luxury tax with 4 max players, for multiple Seasons, if championships aren't part of the equation.

No doubt about it.

I even think this year the expectations are higher. Not saying they have to win the title but IMO their season is a bit of a failure if they don't at least make the finals

It's the 6ers and Bucks chance to get to the Finals before Durant gets healthy.

I like the Celtics and Pacers too.

But, I have them a tier lower.
