Are the 2009 Lakers the weakest champions in NBA history?

[ProfessorMurder]

But sure, I'm the one speculating.

You're implying that you think they will win against anyone. They may, and they did this year.

You're putting these same facts around a few threads that clearly favor the Lakers, but you aren't confidently saying it. Whoever doesn't like the stats, you can say "I didn't say they will win." or "Look at the facts of what happened."

You've been trying to post those facts, but act like you aren't pulling for a certain team.

That's all I'm saying. It's just the way you went about it haha.

The Lakers did win, that's that.

Well in my defense, in this particular thread I just considered this OP a troll post so I responded accordingly with those same stats and a "yawn" : )

Wow so it's even more impressive now right? That Kobe lead one of the weakest finals teams in history to a championship!

[monkeypox]

Come to think of it, last years lakers were even weaker than this year. So The Celtics, after already struggling through one of the historically weakest conferences ever, faced the weakest finals competitor ever. Wow, sucks for the Celtics.

The thread starter is an idiot.

06' Miami Heat

[oh the horror]

So after a week of composing themselves, and drying up their tears...people like this now are attempting to rationalize WHY the Lakers are the champs, even though they hate them so?


Keep trying.

agreed. watching them play, i'm not sure how they won that championship

[kobesabi]

Wait the minute, if Lakers won and get label as the weakest champion (by you), what does that make the rest of the other "LOSING" team that lost to the "weakest champion in NBA history" (that you were trying to implicate something)? Super weakest in NBA history?

The Heat had the best C and SG in the league. Solid role players in Alonzo Mourning, Gary Payton, James Posey, Jason Williams, Antoine Walker, Udonis Haslem and one of the greatest coaches ever.

FAR from the weakest team ever. Look to the '03 Spurs (the 2 Ds- Duncan and defense got them the championship), '94 Rockets, '75 Warriors.

Agreed that Wade and Shaq were the only ones doing much, because those veterans did not contribute much. But Wade was not the best SG in the league (Kobe was and still is), and Shaq was a shadow of his former self. Yao was better by that time.

The five stages of grief:
1. Denial . 2. Anger. 3. Bargaining. 4. Depression. 5. Acceptance

1. The Lakers didn't win, Orlando lost with their epic choke job in game 4.
2. Kobe sucks!
3. Okay, Lakers are champs, but they are the weakest champs in the history of the NBA.
4. ???
5. ???

Gasol led that team in win shares so he was the best player
