Sure, but that wasn't their argument.

Golden State finished the season tied for 3rd in 22. Bucks were 3rd in the East in 21. Lakers had the 3rd best pre-bubble record in 20. Barring injuries to KD and Klay, the third-best Warriors would have won in 19. Warriors finished 3rd in 2018. Cavs finished 3rd in 2016. 6 out of the last 8 years, a team that finished 3rd or worse in the league made the finals. 5 out of those 6, that team won the title. Maybe do a non-zero amount of research before talking out your ass.
I feel like people would be talking about his leadership the way people talk about Chris Paul's if Mike hadn't gotten into the league a few years after Chris. He brings up the overall level no matter what team he's on.
Thanks for clarifying. I don’t disagree with anything you said here; the problem is that you didn’t say it until now.
