Summary of lessons learned in Nuggets-Lakers series

.
Role players perform better within great chemistry, while history shows that great chemistry and subsequent winning can inflate the status of secondary producers and defenders like Aaron Gordon, Pippen or Draymond - these guys were lucky to land alongside generational offensive talents that produced tremendous brand of ball and chemistry, which inflated the stats, ring count and ultimately the status of these secondary producers... But we saw Pippen crater outside the system and his averages within the system were still ordinary... The same would be true if Draymond was toiling away in Detroit with 8/7/6 averages - no one would give a crap who he was and his ordinary numbers wouldn't get the props they do now with the luster of a gaudy ring count behind them.. Meanwhile, Gordon was a reject before latching on to Jokic and his numbers are ordinary... So it's the winning chemistry and subsequent ring count that inflates the all-time status of these secondary producers.. If only Rui, Ingram, Kuzma or Vanderbilt could've latched on to Jokic instead of Gordon, then they would be recognized as all-timers due to their ring count alongside Jokic - ring count makes these guys all-timers, not their production rates or stats... Ultimately, a guy like Pippen never played above a prime Iguodala or Larry Nance level, but the winning spotlight and ring count inflated him to all-time status and media accolade.. Similar to many winning sidekicks such as Dumars, Tony Parker, Pau, or Klay, Pippen didn't get All-NBA until after he won a title.
