This year however likely will be a significant drop to 5th or lower in the east and no chance of contention on any level. Which is okay, as we got a championship out of this build, which is more than most NBA franchises will ever get. But barring a major trade for a star this build is clearly over and we get to look to the excitement of the next one.

Lots of people. A lot of basketball people in the US thought without Leonard the Raps would struggle to make the playoffs.
