Going by that logic, you’ll have people including posters on this site and the media diminishing accomplishments by pointing out the path that said team took.
Not really, it happens in every sport.

The Denver Nuggets last season were probably hoping they'd play Miami because the Heat were a lesser opponent compared to the Celtics from a competitive standpoint.

It's the same thing here. I bet most Celtic fans whether they'd admit it or not would rather face Chicago because they've played against Miami to know that the matchup is more competitive basically a dogfight.

Against the Bulls it wouldn't be the same as we can see right now by the showing they're putting up against the Jimmy-less Heat.

Still doesn’t change the notion that you will have people trying to downplay those rings based on the completion like they do now just to prop up others

I'm so glad Legler called out Bam the other day for his no-show against Philly. Him, Draymond and Gobert are three players who never get criticized, regardless of their performance.

Bam's on a max contract, makes the All-Star team regularly and is on the Olympic team. But when he scores ten points it's always "well, he does other things." :camby:
Bam always gonna show up on defense tho he just play like a p*ssy offensively sometimes.
