四支[NBA分区决赛球队](https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/48419498/nba-playoffs-2026-play-finals-schedule-scores-news-highlights-bracket-dates)，四条不同的道路。联盟的竞争格局比以往任何时候都更加均衡，而这正是刻意设计的结果。总裁亚当·肖华 (Adam Silver)一直希望建立一个更像NFL那样的竞争格局——拥有更多实力均衡的争冠球队，而减少那些在暮春时节长期垄断的王朝球队。

目标：六月不属于任何人。

一个月前，波士顿凯尔特人走到这一步似乎还是顺理成章的事；而一年前，人们也认为印第安纳步行者拥有广阔的前景。对于尼古拉·约基奇 (Nikola Jokic)和丹佛掘金来说，情况同样如此，但自2023年夺冠以来，他们就再也没能重返NBA版的“最终四强”。

有些球队屡屡叩响胜利之门，却始终未能实现突破，比如明尼苏达森林狼。另一些球队则似乎已临门一脚，比如底特律活塞，他们希望通过保持阵容的延续性，并辅以一些投机性的人员运作来完成建队。

因此，尽管俄克拉荷马雷霆对阵圣安东尼奥马刺、纽约尼克斯对阵克利夫兰骑士的对决吸引了整个NBA的目光（尼克斯有机会在周一的第四战中淘汰骑士，[美东时间晚上8点在ESPN直播](https://www.espn.com/nba/game/_/gameId/401873344/knicks-cavaliers)），但其余26支球队已经在暗中发力了。

2026年的雷霆、马刺、尼克斯和骑士提供了丰富的建队经验。那么，哪些球队最应该借鉴他们的蓝图呢？

## 俄克拉荷马雷霆

**启示：保持冷静，不要恐慌**

对其他球队的管理层来说，想要复制萨姆·普雷斯蒂 (Sam Presti)的精妙算盘是极其困难的。毕竟，雷霆的崛起建立在洛杉矶快船的孤注一掷之上——在广受讨论的2019年保罗·乔治 (Paul George)交易中，俄克拉荷马城得到了未来的两届MVP得主谢伊·吉尔杰斯-亚历山大 (Shai Gilgeous-Alexander)，以及最终选中杰伦·威廉姆斯 (Jalen Williams)的选秀权。普雷斯蒂的天才之处在于，他敏锐地洞察到了当时NBA市场的需求，并选择反其道而行之——在金州勇士王朝统治期间，他选择战略性后撤。与此同时，其他球队则在排着队等待属于自己的辉煌时刻，从而在全联盟范围内引发了强行打开夺冠窗口的焦虑感。不仅是快船成就了如今的雷霆，休斯顿火箭当年也用克里斯·保罗 (Chris Paul)和一大堆选秀权，交易走了雷霆的队魂拉塞尔·威斯布鲁克 (Russell Westbrook)。

2024年，当并列西部第一的雷霆在季后赛第二轮爆冷出局时，普雷斯蒂依然保持着冷静。他随后的重大运作看起来更像是针对阵容边缘的微调，比如用乔什·吉迪 (Josh Giddey)换来亚历克斯·卡鲁索 (Alex Caruso)，以及用一份短期、占用薪资空间且符合雷霆财务规划的合同签下自由球员中锋以赛亚·哈尔滕施泰因 (Isaiah Hartenstein)。普雷斯蒂或许能永远享受快船交易带来的红利，但能在兼顾当下紧迫性的同时不完全牺牲未来，这种平衡术几乎是无法复制的。

\*\*最应该借鉴的球队：\*\*波士顿。凯尔特人依然拥有围绕杰森·塔图姆 (Jayson Tatum)和杰伦·布朗 (Jaylen Brown)建队的资本，但今年季后赛的首轮崩盘，重新引发了那个熟悉的话题——是否应该拆散这对明星锋线双人组。或许波士顿应该效仿雷霆最近的几次引援。就像雷霆一样，凯尔特人之前也是在找到了朱·霍勒迪 (Jrue Holiday)、克里斯塔普斯·波尔津吉斯 (Kristaps Porzingis)和阿尔·霍福德 (Al Horford)这组完美的经验丰富的老将拼图后才夺冠的。然而，由于波士顿去年夏天的缩减开支举措，这三人都已离队。

## 圣安东尼奥马刺

**启示：位置？什么位置？**

马刺总经理布赖恩·莱特 (Brian Wright)一直在悄无声息地打造一支功能多样、打法相似甚至可能存在重叠的球员阵容，但在某些方面，他似乎抛弃了传统思维。

在拥有克里斯·保罗加盟，更重要的是已经选下了斯蒂芬·卡斯尔 (Stephon Castle)的同一年，又通过交易得到达龙·福克斯 (De’Aaron Fox)，这让人感觉位置过于重叠。尤其是当时人们还不确定福克斯对赢球的贡献有多大，而且他还面临着续约。三名球员，三条不同的时间线。

而最关键的球员维克托·文班亚马 (Victor Wembanyama)需要一个坚实的基础。随后，马刺收集了一群防守可无限换防、技术全面的球员，他们既有成长空间，又不会互相冲突。作为一名手握大合同的年轻老将，福克斯的表现堪称出色。马刺甚至在输球的过程中也在坚持建队，他们先是培养了凯尔登·约翰逊 (Keldon Johnson)和德文·瓦塞尔 (Devin Vassell)，随后又用双向合同签下了朱利安·尚帕尼 (Julian Champagnie)。不知不觉中，迪伦·哈珀 (Dylan Harper)和卡斯尔也加入其中，这些球员不仅能自主冲击篮筐、防守自己的位置，最重要的是，他们能将球源源不断地输送给篮下的文班亚马。

马刺在建队时，似乎就预料到雷霆终将成为他们的拦路虎。没错，抽中状元签选中文班亚马确实是运气使然，但正是马刺管理层在此之后的后续运作，才让他们如今距离总决赛仅差两场胜利。

\*\*最应该借鉴的球队：\*\*休斯顿。正如马刺交易来福克斯一样，火箭对凯文·杜兰特 (Kevin Durant)这样高薪球星的投资也是一场豪赌。但火箭已经具备了在NBA取得成功所需的要素，他们只是需要给阿门·汤普森 (Amen Thompson)、贾巴里·史密斯二世 (Jabari Smith Jr.)、里德·谢泼德 (Reed Sheppard)以及阿尔佩伦·申京 (Alperen Sengun)时间去成长和磨砺。随着弗雷德·范弗利特 (Fred VanVleet)从膝伤中归来提供更多的老将领导力，再加上一年的经验积累，这才是这支队伍目前所需要的，而不是在首轮爆冷出局后就进行伤筋动骨的剧烈调整。

## 纽约尼克斯

**启示：抵制诱惑**

一方面，尼克斯放弃了大量的选秀权资产来交易得到米卡尔·布里奇斯 (Mikal Bridges)，他最终可能会成为拼齐这块“六月版图”的最后一块碎片。但要说这第一步，还得追溯到2022年犹他爵士和达拉斯独行侠在季后赛首轮激战正酣的时候。

众所周知，多诺万·米切尔 (Donovan Mitchell)在那个夏天渴望加盟纽约。与此同时，由于达拉斯管理层搞砸了续约谈判，独行侠后卫杰伦·布伦森 (Jalen Brunson)成为了自由球员。尼克斯没有选择进行轰动性的交易，而是直接签下了布伦森，而不是用选秀权去交易米切尔。

确立以布伦森为核心，意味着要送走需要球权的RJ·巴雷特 (RJ Barrett)和伊曼纽尔·奎克利 (Immanuel Quickley)，从而换来不占球权的3D锋线OG·阿奴诺比 (OG Anunoby)。随后，纽约用一个首轮签和替补锋线卡姆·雷迪什 (Cam Reddish)交易换来了乔什·哈特 (Josh Hart)。最大的冒险是用前最佳阵容前锋朱利叶斯·兰德尔 (Julius Randle)交易卡尔-安东尼·唐斯 (Karl-Anthony Towns)，但经过两个赛季的检验，这位大个子已被证明与尼克斯的首发阵容完美契合。

在大手笔引进唐斯后不到一年，尼克斯和密尔沃基雄鹿曾进入过一段秘密且排他的谈判期，试图探讨交易扬尼斯·阿德托昆博 (Giannis Antetokounmpo)的可能性。虽然交易最终未能成行，但尼克斯的审慎被证明是正确的决定。通过这种传统的一步一个脚印、逐个引进球员的建队方式，尼克斯现在距离他们自1999年以来的首次总决赛之旅仅一步之遥。

\*\*最应该借鉴的球队：\*\*底特律。凯德·坎宁安 (Cade Cunningham)已经证明了自己货真价实的实力。活塞的重建进度已经超前，但他们的每一次运作都应该像尼克斯围绕布伦森建队那样，以坎宁安的长期发展为核心。底特律现在只需要在已有的防守和运动能力基础上，补充更多的投射能力。

## 克利夫兰骑士

**启示：先做大动作，再考虑兼容性**

骑士并不甘心在后勒布朗·詹姆斯 (LeBron James)时代的第二个阶段漫无目的地徘徊。因此，在2021年用探花签选中埃文·莫布里 (Evan Mobley)的一年后，当全明星后卫米切尔请求离开爵士时，克利夫兰毫不犹豫地抓住了机会，将其交易至麾下。

四年后，克利夫兰又通过交易得到了另一位需要球权的得分型后卫——36岁的詹姆斯·哈登 (James Harden)，当时他因未能获得续约而与快船关系恶化。没人能确定米切尔与球队的合作能维持多久，或许今年夏天这一关系将面临考验，但毫无疑问，在球队自2018年以来首次杀入分区决赛的征程中，这一运作是成功的。

尽管阵容存在明显缺陷，但科比·奥尔特曼 (Koby Altman)一直在对阵容进行微调，并没有仅仅因为夺冠看起来像海市蜃楼就轻言重建。如果没有哈登，他们不可能走得这么远。以他的年龄，防守端的局限性确实影响了球队的上限，但他最终提升了球队的下限。

\*\*最应该借鉴的球队：\*\*明尼苏达。森林狼似乎总是在寻找下一个能制造轰动效应的引援。今年春天，他们已经与阿德托昆博争夺战以及贾·莫兰特 (Ja Morant)联系在了一起。和克利夫兰一样，明尼苏达不会是自由球员的首选目的地，但这并不意味着森林狼总裁蒂姆·康奈利 (Tim Connelly)害怕做出大动作。这支球队应该比任何人都更渴望为安东尼·爱德华兹 (Anthony Edwards)寻找一位强力的二号球星。

> 
> Four [NBA conference finalists](https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/48419498/nba-playoffs-2026-play-finals-schedule-scores-news-highlights-bracket-dates), four paths. The league has more parity than ever, and it’s by design. Commissioner Adam Silver has wanted a more NFL-like model of contenders and fewer of the dynastic mainstay franchises that plant their flags in late spring.
> 
> The goal: June belongs to no one.
> 
> It seemed like a foregone conclusion a month ago that the Boston Celtics would be here or that a year ago the Indiana Pacers would have a long runway. It certainly looked that way for Nikola Jokic and the Denver Nuggets, but they haven’t been back to the NBA’s version of the Final Four since their 2023 title run.
> 
> Some teams have repeatedly knocked on the door but have yet to break through, including the Minnesota Timberwolves. Others seem at the doorstep, such as the Detroit Pistons, hoping to build through continuity and perhaps some opportunistic personnel moves.
> 
> So, while the Oklahoma City Thunder-San Antonio Spurs and New York Knicks-Cleveland Cavaliers matchups have the NBA’s full attention (the Knicks can close out the Cavs in Monday’s Game 4, [8 p.m. ET on ESPN](https://www.espn.com/nba/game/_/gameId/401873344/knicks-cavaliers)), the other 26 franchises are quietly at work.
> 
> There are plenty of roster-building lessons from the 2026 Thunder, Spurs, Knicks and Cavs. But which franchises would benefit most by taking a page from their blueprints?
> 
> **Jump to a team:**  
> [Thunder](#okc) | [Spurs](#sas)  
> [Knicks](#nyk) | [Cavaliers](#cle)
> 
> ## Oklahoma City Thunder
> 
> **Lesson: Don’t panic**
> 
> It will be incredibly difficult for another front office to emulate Sam Presti’s calculus, considering the Thunder were built by desperation from the LA Clippers, with the oft-discussed 2019 Paul George trade netting Oklahoma City a future two-time MVP in Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and the draft pick that would land Jalen Williams. The genius of Presti was recognizing what the NBA market called for at the moment and going counter, taking a step back in the wake of the Golden State Warriors’ dynastic run. Meanwhile, other teams were lining up for their moment in the sun, creating leaguewide desperation to pry open a championship window. It wasn’t just the Clippers who fueled this current version of the Thunder. The Houston Rockets acquired Oklahoma City franchise icon Russell Westbrook in exchange for Chris Paul and a bevy of draft picks.
> 
> And when the Thunder were upset in the second round in 2024 after tying for the best record in the Western Conference, Presti kept a cool head. His biggest moves felt like transactions on the margins, such as trading Josh Giddey for Alex Caruso and signing free agent center Isaiah Hartenstein to a short, cap-consuming deal that aligns with Oklahoma City’s books. Presti will eat from the trough of the Clippers forever, but being able to balance the urgency of the present while not fully sacrificing the future is almost impossible to replicate.
> 
> **One team that should emulate:** Boston. The Celtics still have Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown to build around, but their first-round collapse this postseason reopened familiar conversations about whether the star wing duo should be broken up. Perhaps Boston should instead emulate a few of the Thunder’s most recent additions. Like Oklahoma City, the Celtics won a championship after finding the right mix of veterans in Jrue Holiday, Kristaps Porzingis and Al Horford. All three left last summer as part of Boston’s cost-cutting moves.
> 
> _Other teams that should be watching closely: Milwaukee, Memphis, Clippers, Indiana, Chicago, Utah, Golden State._

> 
> ## San Antonio Spurs
> 
> **Lesson: Positions? What positions?**
> 
> Spurs general manager Brian Wright has been quietly building a versatile group of players who operate similarly and perhaps have some overlap, but he seemed to eschew conventional thinking in some ways.
> 
> Trading for De’Aaron Fox in the same year as having Chris Paul step in and, more importantly, after having drafted Stephon Castle, felt like too much of one thing, especially when people weren’t sure how much Fox contributed to winning and with him being up for a contract extension. Three players, three timelines.
> 
> And the most critical player, Victor Wembanyama, needed a foundation. What ensued was the Spurs gathering a bunch of switchable, versatile players who still had room to grow without stepping over each other. And Fox has been great as a younger vet on a big-money contract. The Spurs were building even while losing, allowing Keldon Johnson and Devin Vassell to develop before getting Julian Champagnie on a two-way deal. Before you knew it, here comes Dylan Harper and Castle, players who can get to the basket on their own, defend their positions and, most importantly, funnel the rock to Wembanyama near the rim.
> 
> The Spurs seemed to build this team knowing Oklahoma City would eventually be the obstacle. Yes, lottery luck hit with Wembanyama, but it’s what the Spurs’ front office did after that that has them two wins from the NBA Finals.
> 
> **One team that should emulate:** Houston. As with Fox in San Antonio, Houston’s investment in an expensive star such as Kevin Durant was a gamble. But the Rockets have the makings for what succeeds in the NBA; they just need time and seasoning from Amen Thompson, Jabari Smith Jr., Reed Sheppard and perhaps Alperen Sengun. More veteran leadership in the return of Fred VanVleet from a knee injury and another year of experience is what this group needs, rather than a seismic upheaval in the wake of a first-round upset.
> 
> _Other teams that should be watching closely: Washington, Sacramento, Atlanta, Portland, Phoenix, Brooklyn_
> 
> * * *
> 
> ## New York Knicks
> 
> **Lesson: Resist temptation**
> 
> On one hand, the Knicks gave up a treasure trove of draft picks to acquire Mikal Bridges, who could turn out to be the final player in piecing together this June puzzle. But for the first one, go back to 2022, when the Utah Jazz and the Dallas Mavericks were battling in the first round.
> 
> Donovan Mitchell, as everyone knew, was angling for New York that summer. Meanwhile, Dallas guard Jalen Brunson was up for free agency after the front office bungled extension talks. Instead of the splashy move, the Knicks chose to sign Brunson outright instead of trading draft picks for Mitchell.
> 
> Leaning into Brunson as the centerpiece meant trading ball-dominant RJ Barrett and Immanuel Quickley for lower-maintenance 3-and-D wing OG Anunoby. New York then acquired Josh Hart for a first-round pick and reserve wing Cam Reddish. The biggest risk came when trading former All-NBA forward Julius Randle for Karl-Anthony Towns, but through two seasons, the big man has proved to be a perfect fit with the Knicks’ starting group.
> 
> Less than a year after making that major splash to land Towns, the Knicks and the Milwaukee Bucks entered into a quiet but exclusive negotiating period to see if a deal could be had for Giannis Antetokounmpo. Nothing materialized, but the Knicks’ prudence proved to be the right move. And through old-fashioned, player-by-player team-building, the Knicks are on the brink of their first Finals appearance since 1999.
> 
> **One team that should emulate:** Detroit. Cade Cunningham has shown he is the goods. The Pistons are ahead of schedule in their development, but every move should be made with Cunningham’s long-term development in mind, similar to New York and Brunson. Detroit just needs more shooting to go with the defense and athleticism it already has.
> 
> _Other teams that should be watching closely: Lakers, Philadelphia, Toronto, Dallas_
> 
> * * *
> 
> ## Cleveland Cavaliers
> 
> **Lesson: Take the big swing; worry about fit later**
> 
> The Cavaliers were not content in meandering through the second post-LeBron James era. So, one year after drafting Evan Mobley with the third pick in 2021, Cleveland jumped at the opportunity to acquire Donovan Mitchell after the All-Star guard requested a trade out of Utah.
> 
> Four years later, Cleveland traded for another ball-dominant scoring guard in 36-year-old James Harden, whose relationship with the Clippers had soured around a lack of an extension. No one was sure the relationship with Mitchell would last this long, and perhaps that stands to be tested this summer, but no doubt it has been successful during the franchise’s run to its first conference finals since 2018.
> 
> Koby Altman keeps tweaking the roster, even with its obvious flaws, but hasn’t veered toward a rebuild just because a title seems like a mirage. They would not have made it this far without Harden. His defensive limitations at his age affects their ceiling, but he ultimately raised their floor.
> 
> **One team that should emulate:** Minnesota. The Timberwolves seem as if they are always searching for the next splash. Already this spring, they’ve been mentioned in the Antetokounmpo sweepstakes and with Ja Morant. Like Cleveland, Minnesota won’t be a free agent destination, but it doesn’t mean Wolves president Tim Connelly is afraid to take big swings. This franchise should be as desperate as any to find a No. 2 star next to Anthony Edwards.
