Do you think every NBA team will win a Championship in your lifetime?

[Exp0sed]

Unfortunately, the Wolves will never win one.

Ant is the next D. Wade he just needs a couple more seasons and the Wolves moving on from Kat
a few good pieces around him and a few more years and he's gonna have a D. Wade type playoff run

u heard it here first!

bump me in 2028 plz

[Edrees]

It wont happen. If one of the teams that you don't think can win it all wins, its because they got a generational talent that's so good he's going to win 3 or 4 titles, and boom, that gets in the way of OTHER teams winning it all. LIke if the Wolves became a 5 year dynasty, suddenly the charlotte hornets will have a huge problem winning at all as well. the chance of all these franchies playing in a league full of parity and switching title wins is so extremely low.

Most likely one of the teams on that list can win because they will hit the jackpot in an all time great, but as I said that one team would dominate for awhile.

Golden Gophers won NCs in football, but way back in the '60s and prior. We weren't born yet. lol

Not in the 1960s.

1934, 1935 and 1936.

They won in '41 and '60 as well.

And 1940!

Oh My Nagurski! I've never been more proud to be wrong!

Man, I feel lucky to have rooted for Wisconsin teams after reading that Minnesota post.

Packers- x2 super bowls and lots of big games.
Bucks- One title with Giannis.
Brewers- I dont really care too much about them but they have been to two NLCS series.
Badger Basketball- Had some really good years, a few final fours and one championship game.
Badger Football- Lots of Rose Bowls and New Years Six games. Almost made the playoffs.

Denver Chicken Nugget fans may very well possibly get to see one soon.

[jkvonny]

Of the current 30 teams, the

Cavaliers
Magic
Suns
Jazz
Hornets
Nuggets
Clippers
Grizzlies
Timberwolves
Pelicans
Raptors

Have never won, and then if you don't count the St Louis Hawks, Rochester Royals, and the Sonics championships, the Hawks, Kings, and Thunder haven't won any either.

EDIT - Pacers and Nets both won ABA championships.

I think the Cavaliers will definitely win one before LeBron retires.

I doubt the Nuggets will ever win a Championship.

Time for another update!

[Statlanta]

With how lucky Milwaukee, Toronto, and Cleveland were and the East West talent disparity I doubt I see a title in cities like Indiana or Orlando or Charlotte

[jkvonny]

Add the Las Vegas Golden Knights as champs. Update the list! lol

[jkvonny]

Add my Texas Rangers to the list!! We finally win the World Series. lol

[Hoop Hunter]

The Nets and the Pacers have both won championships when they were in the ABA. That should count.

I think ABA was a legit league on par with the NBA, many fans don't. The first year of the NBA/ABA merger the all-star game was made up of more former ABA players than NBA. Pacers were the class of the ABA, the book Loose Balls called the Pacers the Celtics of the ABA.

ABA teams San Antonio and Denver have one NBA Chips. New Jersey two finals appearances, Pacers one.

Anyway, I don't think any of those teams will win a title in my lifetime, I'm fifty.

Thank you, kind sir!

I don’t believe that the Charlotte Hornets will win a title in my lifetime. Also, I don’t count a Rochester Royals title as a championship for the Sacramento Kings, or the Seattle Supersonics title as a title for the Oklahoma City Thunder. That’s like saying that America lost the 100 years war because we used to be a part of England.

[NZB2323]

To really analyze this people should not use current rosters really, if we are talking in our lifetimes for most of us that is another 40-50 years if not more so. In that time frame you could have the most garbage franchise rise up and become very good, due to random things that happen.

So I would focus more on which teams have had good rosters for a chunk of the past 30 years and just weren't able to get it done for whatever reason. Those would be the teams most likely to get their first championship in the next 40-50 years.

Tomorrow isn’t promised. None of us know if we have 40-50 days left, let alone years.
