And we also have to remember that both players are prone to injury, cousins and AD has not played the entire season without an injury problem, and because of that it affects the chemistry of the team as their injury would not only make them out in days, but sometimes it take weeks or months before they can come back and play.

They have to as the new guys are leading them, but I'm pretty sure they can have a good chemistry and even without Durant, they will be in the playoffs.
I think the only think that has no movement on the entire roster is the Bucks, they will also be a threat in the coming season as they were coming from a very big loss against the Raptors, they were the favorites so they will not forget that, I'm sure Giannis were too much affected on that loss.

I am also curious on the effect of the Antetokounmpo brothers on Milwaukee bucks. I will still be rooting for this team since our MVP is here the "Greek Freak". I know Giannis Antetokounmpo will make his comeback to the finals again.

They are already solid team for me, a dream team, they don't have so much noise making on the drafts, what I only heard was the brother of Giannis Antetokounmpo which is Thanasis Antetokounmpo. For me, making their lineups solid will help them to get to the finals again and top seeder.

Speaking of this.
Want to ask about your opinion everybody..

Are there any benefits for those team who didn't really shuffle their line ups? Like, there are no changes in their line up from the previous season.
For what my point of view is, since they don't have new teammates, their play will still remain as is since they are the same line up for their previous games.
Opposite that is when a particular team has really shuffled their line ups, like trade here, trade there, their playstyle will likely make some different, right?

Of course the number one benefits is that they really know each other already so there is not a question of chemistry or blending, it just how they're going to raise the bar next season.

As opposed to teams who did a complete overall, they might go on the usual adjustment periods. Specially if the core team is gone already. Just like what happened to Cavs when he left Cavaliers twice.

I guess if the core member remains intact from the previous seasons and just adding up to bulk up the team specially getting role players for a 1 year contract and the team remains healthy throughout the gruelling 82 games, most likely they will have a better chances.

Team building up from previous seasons its different though, acquiring new players to work with a new play style and system takes time, in my opinion.

I'll look more closely on the team that has a decent change to be in the Finals, actually Bucks was a good team but they are fully hype when they beat the Celtics convincingly, I also lose as I bet on them against the Raptors and I think they it's hard for them to beat a good team with only Giannis carrying the team, why? because he is so predictable, same team, so possibly same result.

I think it is more than just notifying each other, I think it is about trading the guys people actually know in the team and like, you can't trade for a guy that everyone hates. Harden was the only one training with Westbrook on the all star break, they played at the same AAU when they were kids, and they played in the same team as non-stars of a team before as well (they were still 2-3 of that team but Durant was the star).

When they heard about the trade coach mike came to harden and wanted to talk about his vision of how they would both play and Harden said to him "I have known him for 20 years, I know how he plays" , they are literally super excited about playing with each other again, it is of course sad that OKC lost 2 MVP guys to Rockets but at least they are back together and will have a good shot at winning it all.

Best player in the world? Not for now but someday this guy would have that slot.He's still young and there's still lots of space to improve.

Other teams or opponents might able to see his weakness but doesnt mean that he would completely be isolated.There would always be an upgrade on anyones play.
