Here's some other strange coincidences that could be spun like Briggie just did with Crawford:

The Clippers are much better now that they got rid of Q-Rich
The Cavs are much better now that they got rid of Boozer
The Heat are much better now that they got rid of Lamar Odom
The Wizards are much better now that they've been able to play without Etan Thomas. (I always thought Etan was killing his own team )
The Wizards are much better now that they got rid of Jerry Stackhouse

Maybe there's a simpler solution. Maybe when a team makes several moves, you could try posting a thread where you isolate one move and claim that it's responsible for the change in the team. But that doesn't mean your claim has any validity.

Not to mention this is the same popular 'logic' used to bash Marbury.


Phoenix traded him and got better
Nets traded him and got better


yeah, thats the only thing those teams did and vwa-la they are contenders. This way of thinking is for the simple people in life. They don't wanna be bogged down with details especially when they interefere with the views they have already made themselves comfortable with. This is the NBA's equivalent to christian conservativism.
