I don't know if Denver can repeat but one of these teams will have to reload the roster
They will have to as Gordon, Murray, Brown and KCP are due next contracts here in the next couple of years. They’ll run it back largely next season with the same core, but after decisions will have to be made.

What sucks for a lot of these teams is that their core isn’t locked up long term before the new CBA kicks in.

It’s gonna be very difficult for the Nuggets to keep Brown since they can’t get his bird rights till next summer. He’d have to take another 1+1 deal at only a 20% raise this year, then opt out again next year to get his big deal from Denver. From what he’s shown this postseason, he’s gonna get approached with a big deal this season from multiple teams. Gonna be hard to pass up - he’s already gonna be 27 entering next year, he wants to get on that first big contract then be able to sign another one in his age 31 season.

Unless the Nuggets collapse and lose the Finals, I think he’s gone.
