about them being "the little man". With all due respect to those teams NONE of them won titles. In the last 13 years we've had SA and Detroit win 5. You got OKC (which was Seattle) on the rise. Orlando went to a Finals 3 years ago. Indiana looks pretty good now. NO got Davis and Rivers. Pistons got Knight, Monroe, and Drummond.
I mean nikkas acting like there are no stars or nikkas with potential outside of MIA, LA, NY.
i am enjoying all the teams are becoming equally balanced.
it isn't a bunch of busters and a superstar like the low bball iq era.
so,..i enjoy the roster building and threats.
the teams are trying to make.
the pistons to the clippers all have great little lineups.
i just worry about the pacers stock pile of wings amd sg's.
as they are clogging up their roster and backcourt with to much talent.
that should get to play way more.
plus be higher paid,...
imo,..they have so many great unactualized allstar talent at guard and sf.
with no imagination on how to properly use them.
in all reality,...i am a bron/wade fan.
yet real talk,..the pacers had firepower to still outproduce the heat from backcourt alone.
now maybe bird is gone,..thOse players can get out the doghouse and get more shine.
like their draft pedigree easily says they are supposed to.
imo,..the spurs should have traded away parker and kept hill.
as hill's size would have easily slowed westbrook down.
yet, in the indiana series,..the coach for indy could have went super big and mobile in the backcourt on paper.
then, stopped bron with an assortment of combo's in the back court with:
hill/lance
george
granger : coming back and rusty from injury
instead he played it to conservative and on some good ole boi bird fo hating shyt.
which cost the pacers when bron and wade finally clicked together.
not to mention on paper the pacers should have had a higher seed.
if bird did not hate on his roster, too.
i am all for the superteam roster making.
as long as the guys on the roater are allowed to produce.
it is crazy watching benches and seeing superstar kinda guys.
with no real tick,.....
