So what? Who gives a rats ass about all that potential drama - realized or unrealized? Did you ever read lengthly accounts of the complete circus that surrounded the Bulls team that won 72 games. All kinds of shit going on. They had Dennis freaking Rodman on that team. He alone is worth more than all that hypothetical shit you listed above. Did you ever read about the Lakers team with Kobe and Shaq and the circus and all the shit that went on? When is a contending team ever dependant a particular formula? You are fixated on "chemistry" and "harmony" in the locker room. Whatever. That's your fixation. Means little.

And the vast majority who ignore advice and existing knowledge get eaten by alligators in some bog somewhere. Just saying.
We have a particular fan on a message board that over sensationalizes everything. We have that same fan who thinks he has an idea of how the totem pole works in the front office, but in reality is just as clueless to it as the next guy.
