not really more fraudulant than the Knicks who couldn't get past jordan. They were built to bully him in the pain, tried to jordan rule him but they never got past the hump. Sometimes you're just not as good as your competition; this is one of them.



Fraudulent. Had to Forrest Gump their way to the ECF as the top seed![]()
at the description yet it makes so much sense
WHENMost disappointing team of all-time?
Tailor-made to dethrone the Heat. Built-up the remaining areas that held them back last year. Got Evan Turner, Luis Scola, etc.
We expected Hibbert to build on becoming one of the best young big men in the league. We expected George to solidify himself as an every night superstar. Stevenson has stepped, but he's still too young to expect more from. D. West has lost his edge. George Hill is still.....George Hill. The coaching/gameplanning seems to have regressed.
Anything less than a game 7 appearance is an all-time level of disappointment.
Just my opinion.
What do you guys think?
This would probably be the end of that group if they lose tonight, it would be one of the most crushing losses in recent NBA history.
They've been looking forward to this series all year, and it's been building up for 3 years, for them to lose in 5 on their homecourt would be straightstatus. It would be 3 steps back, and I couldn't see Bird sticking with this group.
It was a team that is bad on offense. No one will remember them. They have been bad offensively since January
Last year was a result of Wade being hurt and Verticality
naw, those teams were way betterThey are the 2010s version of the early 2000s Portland TrailBlazers & Sacramento Kings and the mid-late 2000s Phoenix Suns
Yes, it will be crushing but it shouldn't be. They lost to a better team.Still, it'll be a crushing loss for them if it happens tonight, and they will be remembered for going out with a whimper after years of coming close.
