Message: [QUOTE="jncuse, post: 3647064, member: 1969"] The slow progression stuff happens less because of some large FA moves or trades being the trigger. But teams that develop organically and take a massive leap are still fairly rare. There have been a few teams that took large leaps with stars... the 2019 Bucks and the the Warriors you mentioned. But those were both triggered by coaching changes -- and Dallas' growth this year has to be largely organic since they kept the same roster and coach. Also both teams stalled at the mid 40 win range (42-44, 47-51) before making a big leap. Milwaukee for example when Giannis established him as a star in 2017 won 42 games... the next year they stagnated and only won 44 games. The leap came with a new coach like the Warriors. [/QUOTE]
