That's exactly where the self-identification comes into it. You'd rather play dumb than just own up to it.

I always call out people when they won't own up to things or want to spin things. That's why all your talk conflating this with the Lakers relative strength makes me laugh. I did this when we were great, when we were and are shitty, and will continue to do so. There's a consistent record of me doing that and there's also a consistent record of you trying to rationalize, downplay, and not take onus for your two team hopping.

Anyways, last word is yours; thought it had been enough time where you might come around this time, evidently not.
