Sorry. Fair game.
All of that still doesn't make the Pels' supporting cast equal to or worse than the Cavs. At all. Him playing a bum card and losing doesn't make the supporting cast equivalency argument any better. That's what I take umbrage with. The rest of it? Y'all have fun.

Okay, then say that. Don't spout the dumb shit about roster equivalency! lol. That's all I'm saying! You wanna call him a fake franchise player, cool! Nothing can disprove that at this point, sadly. I don't think he's a fake, but that's my take. I have no hard data to back that up.

By that definition, Rose wasn't, because they never made the Finals. If you change it to "title contender," then okay. That gives you hard data-- wins to point to. Then again, people can point to multiple All-Star supporting cast... but hey, that goes back to an argument I'm not interesting in engaging in. I'm focusing on the one argument that is incredibly easy to make-- the Pelicans' supporting cast is, objectively, easily better than the Cavs' supporting cast post-to-pre-Bron.
