There's absolutely no sweat equity in this team for me. I haven't 'earned' this. And hell, I've spent 15 years absolutely loathing LeBron James. That's just not a switch that flips. That said, you saw what was happening with the 'baby Lakers' - fans were tuning out. The Die-hards that knew who the Lakers had in the D-League were enjoying the growing process, but the casual Laker fan? They need to see results.
I'm betting this year's Lakers squad did as well in the ratings (or better) than the 'homegrown' squad from 2 years ago. We may not like the team, but I'm betting we're outliers. Could be wrong there, though.

I’m in the same boat. My fav playoff run was the Magic and Boston years. I appreciate the level of play bron and ad led squad has brought this year, but it’s not the same as years prior. I’m just happy we have a great shot at winning.
