Agreed. I treasure the security of the 4-6 seed every year. No character is built from being exceptional, but running on the treadmill of mediocrity year after year after year builds in one a certain sediment of bitterness that protects from the lure of traditional notions of success. To crave and expect excellence is to be a Lakers fan, and for what? Is there anything more fleeting than victory? Most of us are defined by our failures, and I appreciate the Utah Jazz and Greg Miller for embodying that concept and celebrating the futility of the American everyman.
Sheer poetry.
