I think the answer is yes.
Sure we would miss out on some legendary players, but at least this season would be worthwhile.
Imagine the playoffs without the Warriors and Cavaliers. Every other team would legitimately have a chance at winning at all. That's what basketball needs, some parity. That's why college basketball gets huge ratings during March, because everyone has a chance.
There's no drama when everyone knows who's going to win.
