re: Where do the Warriors fit historically if they win the title this year

its just that the pistons in particular were shitty for such a long time and have had moments of excellence where they go and win a title but then go back to shite. its funny to use the winning percentage argument and years of irrelevance as a thing against the warriors in one sentence, and then turn around and try to pimp up the pistons. the pistons were irrelevant for the first 40 years of their existence until they drafted isaiah thomas. the warriors are 20th in winning percentage, the pistons are 19th.
the pistons really havent been consistently relevant for the past 30 years and thats not a knock against them. the only three historically consistent franchises in the NBAs history are the lakers, celtics, and spurs. outside of that a lot of teams like the knicks, and the sixers, and the bulls have had long stretches of irrelevance

I think you're focusing too much on titles. The Suns have had a good product on the floor for much of the last 30 years. The Blazers never had great teams except a few, but they had a stretch of multiple playoff visits and their down years didn't last long. The Rockets got two titles and as Boom would say, only 3 (5) losing seasons since '82.
It's hard to pick because in the NBA, you could have good teams that win 50+ but unless you have a superstar or a few really good players in a good system (Pistons), you're not getting out of the 2nd round in the playoffs. And if we look back the last 25 years, the best players played in LAL (Magic to Kobe and Shaq), CHI (Jordan and then recently with Rose), SA (David then Duncan), HOU (Hakeem then T-Mac then Harden), DAL (Irrelevant until Dirk matured), etc, and those are the winning teams. The good teams become bad then good again until they hit on a guy. Then they become great.
