Jon Barry, on NBA Shootaround, when asked who had more pressure on them in the Pistons-Celtics series, Flip Saunders or Doc Rivers:
“The Pistons have been to six straight Eastern Conference finals, but only have one title. They’re quickly becoming the Atlanta Braves of the NBA.”
So, one championship and nearly two decades of division titles and playoff appearances can now be used for a negative comparison? I understand where Barry’s going with this but do you know how many teams in all of professional sports would kill to have the track record that the Braves have for the last 20 years?
