So on espn.com today they have an article by John Hollinger, who might be the biggest moron in sports. He rated all the teams to make it to the NBA finals over the last thirty years and ranked them from 1 to 60. Sounds good and fun, right? Well, he messed it up big time! First of all, you can only view 1-10 unless you have sold your soul to pay for espn.com's "insider". So, within these top 10 of all time, Hollinger has 8 of the top 10 teams from 1985-1997. So, that means that in a 13 year span, 8 of the top ten teams of all time played. And within these eight teams are ALL 6 chicago bulls championship teams. this is preposterous! I understand that the late 80s and early 90s was a good time for the NBA but to say that all 6 Jordan teams were better than any team from the 70s or early 80s just doesnt make sense. So, let's look at Hollinger's analysis; he uses average scoring margin and average playoff scoring margin as two of the main factors in deciding who was teh best team. Yeah, great idea jerkoff. That makes no sense. That's like saying Roger Clemens is the best pitcher of all time because when he pitches his offense gives him the best run support of any pitcher. Or Viniterai is the best kicker of all time because his team scores the most touchdowns. Scoring margin has nothing with being great. This guy sucks.
