Which up and coming team is most likely to win a championship in the next few years?

Unless the Heat and Sixers win it this year they’re not going to win it w/ their current cores. Aging superstars…

Curry was pretty old in 2022, older than Embiid by a fair amount.

Conley? His leadership and calming influence has been invaluable since coming over.

Conley is solid.

Until I see KAT and Gobert work in the playoffs, I will stick to my beliefs.

Don't want to be a jerk. Why is there no choice for "NONE" or

The old joke choice of Potato Salad.

Those teams don't have the management to put a "TEAM" together to overtake the big guns.

OP also didn't say how far in the future. I don't have a long future in front of me, therefore I may be a bit shortsighted.

With all due respect a year ago Denver was on this list. Are they known for their “management”?

I said upthread I should have included none of the above as a choice. Call it in the next 5 years.

And the potato salad thing is very played out.

I prefer macaroni salad anyway

So you're saying its possible for Embiid to win a title at 31 or 32?

Cane with a ridiculous take as usual

Nah, Canes take was 100% corr...

Damn, couldn't keep a straight face.

 

[elguapo]

Self explanatory. Anyone I forgot? Dallas I feel has already made deep playoff runs so I excluded them from this poll

where the hell are the pistons on this list?

I’m shook just reading “Embiid” and “title” in the same sentence

The correct answer is Lakers. Nothing says up-and-coming like a team led by a 39 year old.

That said, I agree about the comment about having the correct guys making the decisions. Building a roster of young talent and draft capital is one thing, making the right moves to turn those excesses (like OKC, Houston) into championship rosters is another thing entirely. Until we see it, OKC is the most likely but I'm not sure that we see that either.
