Yeah we know nikka but even with a top 10 player OAT team wasn't that great but the competition was meh in the West I see why

1. fixed
2. West comp that year > East
3. The 2009 Lakers wasn't some ok team that had a come up in a down year. They'd be in the Finals this year if you put em in the 2015 Western Conference.

East had Orlando, Cleveland and Boston that's better than the Spurs, Nuggets & Rockets. Yes West was deeper but the East had the contenders. My Grizzlies could probably beat that team, Warriors should be able too and maybe the Spurd

Because he has the maturity of a 15 year old. He did have a great year, though.

Grizz definitely wouldn't beat the '09 Lakers, nor would the Warriors. The Spurs might go 6 or 7 but Lakers win that too.
