Wake the **** up bro. It's all a formula based on perception. They sell what we want to hear, year after year. There's no innovative thinking at the top. It's all about copying a model and selling it to fans. Think about it. How many times did Larry let slip that they needed to make playoff revenue to hit his targeted ROI?
Millers don't care about championships and they screwed over two of the best and most dedicated and loyal players ever in the name of profits. LHM said as much.

Don't know bro, Hard to sell me ATL, CHA, NO and likely a few others are a better run organization than the Jazz. Winning does account for these ranking which does hurt, but only a few mistakes IMO and those being holding onto Corbin for so long and not flipping assets when we obviously had no intention of keeping them (Al, Paul, Mwill). We are rebuilding and everyone knows it. Loses are to be expected.
