After hearing the crying rant of Mark Cuban yesterday saying the most recent back to back Lakers were like the worst championship team in recent history
It got me to thinking is the Kobe/Gasol/Odom/Bynum Lakers the most underated championship team in NBA history?
I mean 3 straight finals appearances, 2 championships back to back??? and it feels like nobody gives them the respect due to what they accomplished. Sure we feel like they could have done more; but what they did is something that you don't see happen to often
So are the most recent back to back Lakers the most underrated multiple championship team in recent history?

That Mavs "championship" team was an outright fraud. Probably the biggest fraud champions I've ever witnessed in the last 20 years... maybe even bigger than the '07 Spurs. Cheap fraud team couldn't even convince their defensive anchor to stay on board after finally winning one |

Lol sorry guys no link I was listening to 710 Espn la when they played it apparently the Espn article just focuses on his insane d will and Jason Kidd comments but cuban had a bunch more to say especially about the lakers I'm sure there has to be a link to that Dallas radio station interview somewhere

All I heard was Cuban crying about not trading for Kobe in 2007 and that Kidd isn't welcome in Texas and will never have # retired

Okay, just saw it...
---
When your team won, did you think it played to its absolutely maximum capabilities?
“Absolutely, but you can say that about every championship team," said Cuban. "It’s not easy to win a championship, except maybe the last Boston-LA series, where they both sucked and it was just the team that sucked less won… But in most cases, that’s what it takes, lightning in a bottle just to get to the Finals. That’s how championships are won. We don’t look back over the last 10 years and talk about any of these teams as dynasties because they weren’t dynasties.”
--
Team that sucked less, won? I can see why players can't wait to get away from this mouthpiece. Just a dummy.

Yeah that's the quote but we all know Cuban is a a$$hat. My question is I think most people outside of laker nation unfortunately agree with him that laker team was not all that. I think that's false but I also think if Miami doesn't win the title this year what that laker team did 3 years in a row will be justified because to me in this day in age that's a huge accomplishment 3 finals in a row two championships

Cuban will complain if there is salt on his fries. I never read his comments anymore. He should take notes from a real owner like Jerry and shut his mouth and play poker.
