Re: NBA 2012-2013
a few all stars? Who, freakin Mo williams and old *** Shaq? You call those good players. I forgot your the same guy who said last year Miami has a bunch of scrub bench players, so your knowledge of quality players is extremely questionable.
Well, I know you just became a LBJ fan all of 2 years ago but yes Mo Williams, Shaq, Zydrunas Ilgauskas, Carlos Boozer, Drew Gooden, Shannon Brown, Anderson Varejao, Ben Wallace, JJ Hickson. That's a pretty decent cast of guys Cavs were surrounding LBJ with.
And yes I still contend that the Heat bench was not that good. When you have starters such as Bosh, Wade and LBJ they can make any scrub's stats inflated. If they were so good, tell me what they did before Miami's big 3? No one ever heard of those scrubs
Luck is getting guys like Parker and Ginobili in the draft who nobody expected to become as great as they were in their title years. Winning in sports takes a lot of luck in one way another, I never said Lebron was never lucky.
Now I know you're being ridiculous. So it had nothing to do with the Spurs being pioneers in scouting Euro players, they just got "lucky" because the guys they drafted turned out good?
So I guess every sleeper player that has ever turned out better than expected and has helped lead their team to a championship was lucky. So I guess the Pistons from the 1980's (except Isiah), the Celtics from the 1980's (except Bird), the Bulls from the 1990's (except MJ), the Lakers from the 2000's (except Shaq), the Spurs (except Duncan)...I can go on...all these teams were LUCKY because all these teams had stars that were never considered prospects when they were drafted. I'm talking about Joe Dumars Rodman, Laimbeer, Dennis Johnson, Cedric Maxwell, McHale, Parish, Pippen, Manu, Parker, Robert Horry, Kenny Smith...etc.
So by default, according to your "luck theory" that literately leaves LeBron as the only star who has ever won without luck. You are too funny. Well you showed me, you certainly know your stuff
