The Thunder's championship victory conceals underlying troubles, as two star players face max contract renewals and the countdown to the dissolution of the Big Three begins.

For the Thunder, winning the championship this year would be the perfect outcome. This season presents the best opportunity for them, as they may face the disbandment of the Big Three in the next two years. The reality is that the Thunder cannot accommodate three max salary players simultaneously.

Next season, both Holmgren and Jalen Williams are options for the team. After next season, both will become free agents, and the Thunder need to negotiate contract renewals with them in advance. However, the management is troubled by the decision of which player to renew, as they cannot afford to give max contracts to both. It’s important to note that after Alexander's contract ends, he will likely seek a super max deal. Having three max contracts on one team is something any franchise might struggle with, especially for a small-market team like the Thunder. Thus, there’s a high probability that the Big Three will disband in the next two years, with Jalen Williams being the most likely to leave the team.

Firstly, Jalen Williams has already demonstrated his leadership abilities. In Game 5 of the Finals, he scored 40 points, making him a key contributor to the team's victory. Therefore, it’s very likely that Jalen Williams will leave the Thunder to establish his own path. He could take on a leadership role in many other teams. Jalen Williams is also a player with strong ball-handling and offensive skills, and in a strict sense, his style is somewhat similar to Alexander's, as both thrive with the ball in their hands. Thus, Jalen Williams may not be content to remain the second option on the Thunder, and moving to another team could be more beneficial for his career development, offering him a chance to achieve more personal honors.

So, in the future, the Thunder will still be a strong team, but if Jalen Williams leaves, the impact could be significant, potentially leading to a substantial decline in their dominance. What do fans think about this?
