    The raptors did benefit from the Warriors injuries but they had to go through hell just to get to the Finals. Philly with 4 all stars and the Bucks were better than any team in the East from 2011 to 2018. I mean... a rookie led Jason Tatum and Terry Rozier led Celtics were the best comp in 2018 and the Craptors with Lowry and Derozan were the best before that.
    you've been campaigning forever. I get it.

    Damn... remarkable feats.
    It's funny because kawhi is considered bad for losing in 2020 after goating in 2019, while lebron is good for being lottery in 2019 and then sharing the load in 2020

    The Lakers had better odds to win the title in 2019 than the Warriors did in 2015. And they couldn't even make the playoffs. Massive underachievement.

    The Laker's odds at a title quadrupled when AD came on board. Who would have thought? I see in the recent "Top 5 players" thread AD is on every list and so is Lebron. Yet... no other players on that list are on the same team. It's a joke lol.

    Ttrolls pretending Ingram was anything close to a positive player at any point in his career before 2020 when he learned how to shoot is low even for his standards.

    It’s been a rough time for OP ever since the NBA restart happened. Poor fella even managed to convince himself the Rockets were beating the Lakers. Whoops
