[Mecca of the “B” Team]

This is dumb, almost all franchises have gotten "lucky". How many championships the Bulls win without Jordan? How shit of a franchise would the Warriors be if the Twolves didn't draft two PG's back to back, not named Curry? How would the Celtics have faired if they didn't get to draft Bird. Lakers without Magic or Kobe.

This is so, so dumb.

Spurs if the pingpong balls bounced in the Celtics favor?

Would we be looking at Robinson like we do Ewing?

The what if game?

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

My point is it takes luck for most franchises...And a lot of times doesn't even work out...So a lot of franchises with rings got theirs from luck of the draft...and the ones who don't have championships didn't draft well and get lucky

I'm not trolling.

But, I'm confuzzled by this.

Did the lakers get lucky drafting Lebron and AD?

So you're using a sample size of 1, on a team that hasn't won a championship no less, to validate your theory?

When you can factually see the list of every NBA champion and see a link to 95% of them drafting a superstar.

I love it.

Here @lebron23james

I'll spot you this Lakers team, which again hasn't won a championship.

Then I'll even give you the 76ers which had Dr. J and Moses Malone.
You have the Raptors last year with Kawhi Leonard.

Outside of that, how many other NBA champions...in the HISTORY of the NBA....have won a championship without a drafted superstar.

I'll wait.

All championships need a good deal of luck. Every single one. Including that one little one y'all got.

Ummm, who are the Knicks offering for Drummond?

2004 Pistons. No superstars of any kind. It worked because they had the best basketball (not just NBA) coach in history.

What are you drinking? Jamison and coke or patron with a lime goes hard in the restricted area..

Well sure you need good players. But there's luck in every single championship. All of them. For example, you guys needed the luck of having a generational talent born in Akron. That won't happen again so that's why you won't ever win another.

Then there's the injury luck. Toronto had it, you guys had it, the Ws had it too (Chris Paul, etc)

Tbh

 

[lebron23james]

You have never owned anything. You have been wrong about just about everything you have ever said on this forum. It is actually somewhat impressive just how spectacularly wrong you have been.

I said the lakers wouldn't make the playoffs last year you said they would...We can start there

Or end at Kyrie isn't a star. You have said just as many dumb things...More than i can actually even remember...The worst was your green take which takes the cake

 

[Shaqdaddy11]

Green is a little more careful and you would have lost in 5 rather than win in 7

 

[trojanfan12]

I'm sure everyone is fixated on it, but Browns still don't have a coach.

Think they'll hire McDaniels?

 

[lebron23james]

Green lmao...The guy shooting the ball through the wrong hoop and averaging 8 ppg 38% fg....He played in game 6 and 7...What makes you so confident about game 5.

I thinks it's much more likely that had real stars been playing like Kyrie and Love in the first year of the matchup we win. Talk about luck...That is nearly 45 ppg removed, a little tougher to win then missing monkey face for 1 game lol

 

[TurnUpTheHeat]

I'm just saying they aint the lakers or the Celtics...If they never landed Wade, they are about as successful as the magic

IF anything.
What IF the Bulls didnt draft Jordan?
