Sometimes, you’ve got to take a step forward. Other times, it’s best to step back. NBA teams are routinely faced with that decision.
They need to identify where they are in relation to the rest of the league and make moves in either direction.
The Oklahoma City Thunder may be ready to move forward. This team has been surprisingly competitive in 2022-23. If they make the right additions this summer, they could be contenders next season.
By contrast, it’s hard to know where the Brooklyn Nets will wind up this summer.
This team could be competitive for the remainder of this season, but it’s not guaranteed, either.
If they’re not, could they send Mikal Bridges to the Thunder?
