The summer of 2016 has been one of the craziest off-seasons in recent memory, but how has it really changed the landscape of the league?

There have been a few power players that moved to different teams. Kevin Durant is now a Golden State Warrior. Dwyane Wade is now a Chicago Bull. Dwight Howard is now an Atlanta Hawk. Al Horford is now a Boston Celtic. Tomfey Mozgov is now a Laker.

If you're thinking to yourself that the last mention isn’t a power move, you’ve got me on that one.

The rise in salary cap this summer allowed some of these moves to happen, while players not as talented benefitted by signing immense history-making contracts as well.

Once the smoke cleared and the new NBA schedule was released, oddsmakers could not wait to get to work.

While some argue that a team like the Warriors aren’t really fair to the spirit of competition, we’ve seen from NBA teams all the way up to Olympic competition that pairing guys together doesn’t translate into domination by default.

The league's competitive balance might have taken a small step forward overall, but that may be where it ends, at least for now.

According to Topbet, and it's basketball futures, the Warriors are not only favorites to win the Western Conference, followed closely by the San Antonio Spurs, but also the heavy favorites to win the NBA Championship in the 2016-2017 season.

The addition of former MVP in Durant shows that the Warriors are serious about winning, after losing a heartbreaking Game 7 against the Cavs in the 2016 NBA Finals, and this move takes them from being just favorites to heavy favorites.

Vegas tells us that putting your money on the Warriors is a safe bet, because they are the favorites. The odds margin is large enough to account for injuries, strength of schedule, as well as possible mishappenings that might take place during the season (looking at you Draymond Green).

The biggest obstacle in the West will likely be the San Antonio Spurs, but they have a revamped roster with younger players and will be adjusting to life after Tim Duncan.

The Cleveland Cavaliers still pose the biggest threat to the Warriors' big four, and they are the champions until someone dethrones them.
