Nuggets’ elimination seals seven-year run of unprecedented NBA parity, but is it good for the league?

when Boston Celkus It has been eliminated by New York Nix On Friday, it became 2025 Sixth in a row in the American Professional League Where the defending hero failed to advance in the second round. The latest bullet in the current study, which is equal to the American Professional League, raised questions about how it happened and whether it was good for the league governed by more traditional institutions.

Now we have another bullet point: with Denver Nags‘7 game elimination on the hand Oklahoma City Thunder On Sunday, the American Professional League will officially crown seven different champions over the first time for the first time in the history of the league, which dates back to 1946.

This is different from the lack of successive heroes since Warriors In 2018, this means that no team has won a title in the past six years to win a second team since then. It includes that list Raptors (2019), Lakes (2020), Dollars (2021), Woriors (2022), Nags (2023) and CELTICS (2024).

There are countless reasons for this, each of which can feed a multi -layer conversation, but the bottom line is margins between everyone The American Professional League teamsCertainly, they are so small, so small that almost anything – competition, rest, training or injuries definitely – they can swing in a chain.

This is what is equivalence – there is no team that stands on its head and a shoulder above any other person, and a full pile of teams ready to challenge to get a title in the appropriate conditions. Being lucky enough for all these circumstances to break your way even once, given the depth of the competition that each team faces these days, he really asks a lot. Breaking your way, at least twice over the past seven years, has become impossible.

The new CBA, specifically the first and second salaries, will likely, just to enhance this trend. For most owners’ taste, it has become very punitive-from a financial view and lists-to maintain a long-term team.

Celkus is likely to disintegrate this summer even before Jason Tatum Achilles rupture. Nuggets lost to Oklahoma City partially because it lacks depth, because it is very expensive to sign multiple players of the quality of the seat when the beginners earn a lot of money. Superteams that can continue to roll the league is no longer a reality.

Is this a good thing? This is a matter of taste. I will say, personally, I enjoy not having to watch movies that already have a good idea of ​​the end. It sells suspense. Not everyone agrees on this, and yes, get a lot of monsters or two at the end of the video game that everyone tries to get out.

But I think this is better, for the same reason I think I am crazy Such a popular product. Anyone with a hat in the ring can win, whether you are talking about a game, chain or championship. In the end, whether you like it or not, we will continue to see this in the direction in the American Professional League.
