    Our current team had way more clutch wins than collapses

    I'll take your word for it since I wasn't blessed to see the 77 team.

    But I agree as good as this team was last night offensively and as good as they are on offense in general. They wouldn't hold up to Drexlers team

    The Ramsay Blazers got off to a rough start, but once they bought in and understood the system, it was the most beautiful basketball you could ever wish to see. And the 77-78 team had an understanding of Ramsayball beyond that of the team the previous year. The first 60 games of that season may have been the pinnacle of team basketball.

    With that said I think this team has the higher BBIQ than any of those Drexler teams

    Ya well if the Refs didn't jump in at the 4th qtr to manipulate that game 7 vs the Lakers, That 2000 team would have been the best with no questions asked. Even Tim Donaghy has said multiple times that the refs went to work in the 4th qtr of that game. So if you want to say another team is the best just because the refs screwed us where does the asterisk sign go?

    The real question is "Has there ever been a thread this hyperbolic for a 6-3 team?"

    Logged in to say: no.

    We've got maybe the best fitting starting five in franchise history, but beyond Kaman our bench can be erratic. Blake, McCollum, Joel and then whoever ends up getting to play a little extra can get hot, but you can't necessarily count on them the way you can count on Kaman. Compare that to the teams of the 90's, early 20's and a few others and it's night and day in terms of an entire TEAM, rather than just a starting 5.

    It could be, but I opted for the third choice.
