After silently judging as I scrolled through posts riddled with hot takes from 5 years ago I thought...

What are your hottest takes about how the NBA will look 5 years from now? (Go wild with your guesses, nobody will be judging you......)

My hot takes are

  1. Josh Giddy will be in the MVP race
  2. The Booklyn Nets will have either made or won the finals due to Bridges and Ben Simmons showing out
  3. LeBron will continue to refuse to retire, while still putting up 18/4/4. And will blame it on wanting to play with his wife's uncles barbers daughters stepson 17 years from now.

  1. Steph, LeBron, and Kawhi won’t win any more rings on their current teams.

  2. Kyrie will have demanded to be traded at least 3 more times.

  3. Luka, Embiid, Tatum, Lamelo, Zion, Trae, Ja, and KAT will all be on different teams from now.

  4. At least one ringless team will win their first championship.

  5. At least 3 of the currently rebuilding teams (Rockets, Hornets, Pacers, Jazz, Magic, Pistons, Spurs, Blazers, Wizards) are going to fail miserably.

Gotta refute the Pacers as both a fan of the team and also the NBA in general. They're going to be a lot better than people credit them if healthy-ish. 'Rese is gonna make or break it, he's awesome. Turner clogging it all up and making volleyball spikes outta shots, Obi and Bruce, Buddy hangin' with buckets...it's gonna be fun to watch. I've got a side bet with a coworker that 45+ is a lock. Ambitious, but not crazy.

Kyrie will have demanded to be traded at least 3 more times

Additionally, Harden will have demanded to be traded at least 8 more times.
