if I had been a Pistons fan for 21 years, I'd be happier with that than with the last 21 years as a Nuggets fan prior to this year.
If I'd been a Pistons fan for 19 years, I'd be less happy.
Championships are worth a lot. But a championship I didn't pay attention to wouldn't count for anything.

from the 80s to early 2000s, the Pistons were an elite franchise as any. but I promise you there are very few Piston fans that look at the sorry state of affairs of their ball club today and think "this is more tolerable because we won a championship 20 years ago" But to be fair you are picking one of the most extreme examples. Most franchises aren’t “win a title and then 20 years of being awful” I’d still take one title and 20 bad years over 20 solid seasons with no titles if given that choice

both things can be true at the same time.
awesome run, fluke ring. absolutely nobody outside of Arizona has a problem calling the Suns finals run a fluke due to the series of fortuitous events that eased their path.

Championships are worth a lot. But a championship I didn't pay attention to wouldn't count for anything. It’s not a single ring tho. They went on a run after to and came up short. Like getting two swings at the finals with Jokic? Multiple conference finals straight? Sign me up. That’ll be worth a horrific stretch.

I actually get your point. Just think Pistons don’t work. Like if the Wolves magically won a ring in 2004 that would be an interesting question. How much is one ring worth? The Pistons won a ring, made the finals, multiple ECF apps etc. That’s like half a decade of A+ basketball. I’ll take 15 years of suck if we can get that. Didn’t the Pistons lose in 6 or 7 to the Spurs that one year? Even having a shot at 2 rings is special.

I don't think either team had looked very impressive. Not sure how either team is going to guard Jokic.

They don't have size to Guard AG AND Porter Jr., and if Miami is getting these types of looks from 3 with Jimmy playing this bad do you seriously think Demver is going to struggle to score. Denver is a much better offensive team then Miami.

How did Miami win 3 games? Boston is inconsistent with poor leadership.

The FT and foul disparity is out of hand. 14-6 FTAs and 4-8 on fouls in favor of Boston.
Refs got the memo.
