We have seen superteams that didn't succeed and disappointed their team management. There's certainly a big problem with these superteams nowadays.
That's why building from scratch is a good thing that some teams are doing like the Kings, Nuggets, Bucks although they've added some help through Lillard eventually.
I also agree that having no big man with the Suns is a big mistake.
I believe you are pertaining to the “super team” that composed of old star player that already near passed of their prime. Clippers, Lakers and Suns are the best example for this since they are just acquiring Star player that is just good during their prime but right now only playing on average.
The reason why building from scratch is always a good choice is because the team is being developed along with the individual skills. A tram that playing as one without stealing spotlight to each other can always beat a super team is that is just built recently while most of their star players is greedy with the ball.
It's true building from scratch is the best, we've seen this with Nuggets, Heat, Kings and Bucks. But getting with some help of an old veteran is a good strategy too but don't get it that much when they're like no one's going to listen to one another because they treat themselves as superstars.
Not totally building some scratch since they might really get a problem for long time since maybe they would get a lot of challenges especially for getting wins and fans might get mad on them.
Maybe its important to consider by teams is they should not get a lot of stars on team but rather they should focus to get good role players since this could be a game changer to them since those guys can work with them so well and can able to share some good baskets with their stars.
And I think the team would be more balance if there's one or two stars in the team compare if they acquire a lot of stars since pride would overcome their system and that can ruin their chemistry.
Yes, not getting a lot of stars.
A few of them will be fine for each team since they're costly. And moving on the upcoming game of Lakers and Nuggets, Ham said that there won't be any changes with his first five.
