Which 4 teams will define the '20s for the NBA?

The NBA has about as little parity as a league can have. You can almost completely tell the story of a decade using 4-5 teams.
For the 2010s
Warriors, Cavs, Spurs, Heat, (and there really isnt a 5th. You could argue Houston, or even OKC for the implications)
for the 2000s
Lakers, Spurs, Celtics, Pistons, (and then the 5th would be one of New Jersey or maybe Dallas/Phoenix)
So who are the 4-5 (I suppose if you think that there are clearly 7 or something you can list those) that will define the next decade.)
I say:
(First half of decade)
Clippers
Lakers
(Second half)
Mavericks
After that im not sure. Do the Bucks do anything of note? What if the Pelicans young pieces gel? Will the Heat/Celts getting beat in the finals 5 years in a row be enough to count without winning one? Is there some 15 year old thats going to dominate the latter part of the decade? (Find out next time, on DRAGON BALL Z!)
I guess id say Celtics. Young coach. Im sure they will retool and be relevant.

Lakers/clippers/Bucks
Maybe Mavs, Warriors, pelicans.
Hard to tell depending on how the aging stars return from injury/ young stars develop.

Lakers Clippers and Bucks for the first half assuming Giannis stays put. Who knows after that with how rosters change now. New Orleans and Memphis both look like they could be scary by that point but are in smaller markets, Dallas has Luka which will give them an edge in getting talent in free agency for a while. Philly and Boston could see their youngish guys take another leap in the East.
