My brother, you literally said this:
Similar to thinking a 13 seed is a Title contender?
I’m not rewriting history here. Your stance has been clear for a long time. You literally said thinking the Lakers are a title contender this year is foolish/fantasy. This was after the trade too. You kept pushing the “we’re closer to the 13th seed than a championship” angle to justify blowing it up and trading for future assets.
You can say what you want now but I know what happened lol.

He's had ONE playoff run in his life, man.
Outside of that one run, he's been in 4 playoff series, and lost 3 of them.
The last time he was in the playoffs, him getting hurt is exactly the reason we lost.
He played the prime Warriors two out of three times with the likes of Quincy Pondexter, & Etwuan Moore being some of his main running mates
His numbers in the playoffs before L.A/Bron with HORRID teammates were 30/13/2 with 1.8 stls & 2.5 blocks on 55/28/85 splits & he quite literally had the best PER in playoff history.
Every time AD has stepped foot on a playoff floor he upped his game with or without Bron

EXACTLY, you let some tell it AD is soft & isn't a top tier player, Bron is injury Prone & washed up, & ham is the worst coach in the league... Somehow tho this team was still able to have a turnaround not seen in over 20 years & has been on f the better teams in the league for almost two months now, while dealing with significant time missed from our 2/3 of our best players.
most teams would have packed it in, especially with all the Russ stuff on top of it. AD/Bron/Ham got a hell lot of respect from me for not quitting & doing their best to turn things around. They got us in position in a weak west & at least are giving this team a chance

They were the best team in the West all season up until the break. What was impossible about that run?

Gonna assume everyone has a bad shooting night (except Reaves lol) but the defense comes through and closes em out… hopefully.
