Take away the top player from every team...

[Lebronxrings]

I would say OKC, or any team with multiple stars. If you take Durant off the team, you still have Westbrook, they would still be competitive. I agree with Atlanta, maybe the Spurs....

the top player as in westbrook would be the one taken away. Without westbrook, okc isn't competitive (see 2013 playoffs).

To the question, probably GSW. That team is stacked.

Cavs, they'd still have 3 all stars. Although one of them is the ultimate choke artist it's not like they'd be relying on him to score in the clutch when you still got Love/Smith. They lose the clutchness and leadership of Kyrie but they'd have more all stars than any other team in the league even with him gone.

Probably Cleveland with their new acquisitions.

[AnaheimLakers24]

Cavs stacked.

Livingston | Barbosa
Thompson | Holiday
Barnes | Iggy
Green | Lee
Bogut

You're telling be that team wouldn't still be the favorites?

Stacked.

Which team is the favorite to win the championship?
Which teams are contenders?
Which teams does this impact the most? The least?

Knicks would go 0-82

[I<3NBA]

Atlanta/GSW are still contenders and favorites
Cavs are impacted the most
Knicks increase their wins

[aj1987]

Heat would drop big without whiteside

Just lost a game after Wade's injury.
