Except there isn't an actual asterisk written anywhere that matters.

That is kind my point.

People use that “asterisk” comment to try and diminish whatever team’s title.

That isn’t what an asterisk means. That negative connotation is a made up thing by US sports fans.

There will be a asterisk by the 2021 season. Not because of injuries. Does not diminish what the Suns did any more than the eventual 2012 champion Heat or ‘99 champ Spurs were diminished.

Which is not at all.

Just did 1 search on Wikipedia, the first thing that came up.

They had asterisks on ‘99, ‘12, 2020, etc


I'm gonna stick with what I found on nba.-com yesterday instead of wiki.

Yeah, people can change shit on Wiki

That's what I've heard about wiki in the past. I'm thinking info from nba.-com is a lot more accurate than something from that site.

Ok, point is it depends where you look

An asterisk is a footnote. Nothing more.

All of those seasons are worthy of a footnote. So is this season.

So to look up NBA info you think wiki is more reliable than the league's own site? Okay. :pound:

Whatever man. It is a simple list of champions. Pretty silly to not footnote a season with a different number of games if you ask me.

But you are completely missing the point anyway. So not going to argue with you about it.

Now wait a minute. Who's the one really arguing here? I think going by what nba.-com says is more reliable than wiki. And because we don't agree you somehow think I'm arguing? So in other words whenever anyone has a different opinion than you to you that's arguing. Classic.

The funny thing is if I had agreed with you then you wouldn't have a problem at all.

Dude. It is a list of champions.

Is the wiki list wrong?

No.

And yeah, that pretty much is the definition of an argument man. People expressing different opinions.

What I said is that I don’t care to do it about this.

So disagreeing with you is the "definition of an argument"? Like I said had I agreed you wouldn't have an issue. That right there says a lot. Didn't realize that you think your opinion is more valid than what the NBA has to say.

All I'm saying is the NBA doesn't have an asterisk next to the '99 & '12 champs. So you think what you wanna believe is more valid that what the league has to say. Alrighty then.

Damn dude.

Yeah, this is an argument. For sure. If you agreed with me, there wouldn’t be an argument.

See how that works?

Have a nice day.

I would not go that far. Sometimes can be annoying for sure.

Then again, people surely say that I can be annoying at times too.
