We got AD, which led to the Disney World Title. So I guess it was worth it to say they got a title in the last decade.
But I only brought up how the Lakers were irrelevant post Magic and had all of these young, capable stars (Peeler, Jones, Van Exel, Ceballos, etc) and instead of flourishing, it was ship out Vlad, get Shaq, make other moves and adopt the triangle. It really isn’t a whole lot different than now. Bus family always chasing chips without major fore sight. But can’t be mad. It works here or there.
Whereas Boston, held onto Brown, Tatum, Smart, etc.
In my memory, it was really the Big Three where Boston tried for this win now strategy.
Boston has one one title since 86. They're definitely not the best franchise example regardless of the talent they currently have.
