Are the giant teams good? Whether it will succeed or not depends on who will form the team, and whether the giants will be patient, and whether they will make adjustments and concessions. It's also certain that after the giant teams are successfully formed, it will be difficult to achieve success in the first year. We can look at the Bucks, they are Lillard + Antetokounmpo + Middleton giants. Injuries aside, even if Brother Alphabet is not injured, it will be difficult to succeed this year. Lillard can score 31.3 points in the playoffs, Middleton can score 24.7 points, and Antetokounmpo is also the main player who averages 30+ points per game in the regular season. However, they didn't pinch it together, which required someone to give in, and build a new squad system and a different style of play.
The same goes for the Clippers, and so do they. Harden + George + Leonard giants, who are championship favorites at the beginning of the season, have a higher call in the middle of the season. Harden averaged 21.2 points and 8 assists per game in the playoffs, while George slipped to 19.5 points and 4.8 assists, and Leonard played two games with 12 points and 8 rebounds. Harden may be able to play 2-3 games, but not for the entire series, after all, fitness and age do not allow. On George's side, he's also pretty bad. It's confusing. In general, it is quite difficult for the giant teams to succeed right now. Not everybody is James, and not everybody is Love and Bosh who are willing to be the third core of the game and the blue-collar players.
It is worth mentioning that there is one more multi-giant team that has failed this year, and that is the Suns. The Suns are a Big Three lineup of Beal + Booker + Durant, with Durant still averaging 26.8 points per game on 55.2% shooting in the playoffs, and Booker scoring 27.5 points on 49.2% shooting. However, such a giant team has not won a single game in the playoffs. We also have to admire the decisiveness of the Suns, who quickly let Vogel go. After this was confirmed, there was only one day before they confirmed another strong reinforcement, that is, Budenholzer became the new coach of the team, and he confirmed his arrival. It only took one day to complete this work, and it can only be said that the owner of the Suns really likes basketball, and here I have to congratulate the Suns Big Three.
There are several reasons why Bu Shuai is a strong reinforcement. First, it can reduce the consumption of the main force. In this case, Brother Alphabet is the best example. During his tenure with the Bucks, he averaged a maximum of 33 minutes per game, and even only 30.4 minutes in 19 years. However, this did not delay Brother Alphabet from winning the MVP and maintaining an average of nearly 30 points per game. On the other hand, this season, Brother Alphabet has worked for 35.2 minutes, which has also laid a hidden danger for injuries. Second, we need to build a good enough system. As far as this matter is concerned, Bu Shuai also has a record as proof during the Hawks and Bucks periods, which is not much to say. Overall, the selection of the coach will at least guarantee the regular season and the pinching of the big three together.
After Bu Shuai came, is the alliance going to the end? In this case, not necessarily. First, the Suns lack a championship phase, and the Big Three block the space for reinforcement, especially since Beal's big contract is too big. Second, there are too many young teams in the West. You can look at the Timberwolves, and the rising Thunder, they both have very reasonable lineups. Especially on the Timberwolves' side, in the next 2-3 years, they will definitely be the biggest contenders for the championship. All in all, the Suns have changed tracks, and they're about to start figuring it out again.
