That part is true, for the most part, and pretty neat. And of course we'll really romanticize the team more as years pass (we always do).
 
NBA or not, though, it was a limited group: of the starters, a point guard who wasn't a great shooter and wasn't really athletically gifted, a two who was invisible as often as not, a three who played much smaller than his size and wasn't a terribly efficient scorer, and a center without any offensive post moves. On a team that had no consistent outside shooter. And for all the talk about Dion as an unstoppable neo-Wade (someone else in the other thread should take credit for this), that really doesn't jibe with what we saw all year: an electric open-court player who could get to the rim very effectively at times in the half-court but who disappeared for nearly a month and had pretty bad shot selection at inopportune times.
 
No doubt that this group could look a lot better in hindsight. Those who will look the best, though, have likely only scratched the surface
of their potential.
