Rebuilding is imminent! Taking stock of the NBA s five teams to rebuild during the offseason, the five-star grand formation will be forced to disintegrate

With the deepening of the NBA playoffs, only four teams are competing for the final championship in the playoffs. Other teams have long been eliminated and have prepared in advance the offseason reinforcement lineup plan or reconstruction plan to achieve their respective goals. According to the performance of each NBA team in the 2024-2025 season and the dynamics before the offseason, the following five powerful teams are likely to start the reconstruction plan during the offseason due to salary pressure, lineup adaptability, injury problems or performances that did not meet expectations. Let's take a look:

1. Phoenix Suns: The collapse of the Big Three ranks

Since the formation of the Super Big Three of Durant, Booker and Bill in 2023, it has not been able to break through the first round of the playoffs for two consecutive years, and this season has fallen out of the playoffs. The main reason is that the Big Three ranks cannot be effectively integrated, and there are contradictions. In this case, how can the team achieve a better record?

The current team's luxury tax pressure: the total salary of the Big Three is more than US$150 million. With other players, the total salary and luxury tax expenditure rank among the top in the league, but the record is seriously inconsistent with the investment. The team has begun a reconstruction plan. Judging from the current situation, Durant and Bill will leave the team, and Booker will leave the team if the chips are right.

2. Philadelphia 76ers: The "medical disaster" destroyed by injuries

In the 2024 offseason, Howe formed the three giants of Embiid, George and Maxi, but the three players only combined for 14 games, and finally got out early with the fifth-last record of the East. The main problem is that the three giants were injured one after another, and the time was long, which made the team not very competitive.

Salary structure imbalance: The total contract amount of the Big Three future contracts exceeds US$700 million, George's 210 million in four years and Embiid's super maximum salary will seriously limit the room for reinforcement. At present, the team's management tends to rebuild around Maxi and young players, and everyone else can leave the team.

3. Sacramento Kings: The failure of small market gambles

The team frequently formed "pseudo-three" through trades (such as Fox, DeRozan, Raven and Sabonis), but always hovered on the edge of the play-offs, and even fired the general manager this season, plus other issues in the team, the team may have to rebuild.

Future assets are scarce: In exchange for immediate combat power, the King has overdrawn the first round of picks before 2029, and the rebuilding chips are limited.

4. Boston Celtics: The sweet worries of the defending champion

Although the Celtics just won the 19th championship in the team history, the explosive salary and aging lineup forced the management to break up the core lineup, which is a bit of a pity.

Salary pressure: Tatum and Jaylen Brown will account for 66% of the salary cap next season. The team's total expenditure is expected to exceed $500 million. If you touch the second rich line, you will face severe punishment. This is something that the new boss is unwilling to accept, so the team needs to split the core lineup.

5. Bucks: Losing competitiveness

Since the team won the championship, a series of operations by the management have not only declined, but also caused the team to overdraw future chips and cannot effectively strengthen the lineup. At present, Antetokounmpo has the idea of ​​leaving the team, and it is reported that the Bucks have begun to try out the top eight picks in the 25th draft.

Reconstruction: The Bucks' window for winning the championship has been closed, whether Antetokounmpo stays or leaves the team. The best choice at present is to exchange Antetokounmpo for chips that are more beneficial to the team.

Everyone believes that in addition to the above five teams in the offseason, those teams have been rebuilt in the offseason. Welcome to discuss in the comment section!
