Its never been easier to win a championship. Teams that have won have suddenly had to break up two years later or cant replicate that success. You just need to get there and could get a good draw like the Knicks did. They avoided the Pistons who wouldve likely beaten them and the Thunder who also wouldve beaten them. The issue is sustained success. The Thunder teeter on Chet's legs and I'm sure his performance has them regretting the contract he got.
My concern is that ownership is quietly ok with the first round exits as long as profit margins go up.
