It's just more fraud from a guy that manufactured his resume by forming super-teams in a conference that 1-star teams were winning.

They always ignore this lol
We point out the weak competition they faced in the road to the finals, and then the sweeps, 5 game losses and the biggest blow out losses literally in NBA history - once they get there.
