Has there ever been a team without major NBA championship/deep playoff experience at its core (like GS) that ends up winning the finals?
2004 Pistons the most common answer that makes sense. The MJ Bulls had knocked on the door before so I don't really count them.

@johnlegend Pistons went to six straight conference finals, including in '03. -
@EarlKSneed well then. never mind what i said about the pistons. -
@johnlegend@EarlKSneed that Pistons team hadn't been together long. Prince emerged in 03 playoffs, Sheed acquired right before 04 playoffs -
@vgoodwill@johnlegend Could say the same thing about '11 Mavs. Tyson Chandler came that summer. Dirk/JET were the only carryovers from '06. -
@EarlKSneed@vgoodwill But Dirk was the star and had major experience. Can't count them. -
@johnlegend@vgoodwill True. Pistons had no superstar. Can't argue with what they did to Shaq and Kobe, -
my wife and I knew we liked
@johnlegend but a reply to@EarlKSneed in an over beers type convo puts it over the top#goodpeople#goodmusic

@johnlegend what about 2006 Heat? Besides Shaq who else did they have? -
@Epicous you can't say besides Shaq. That's like saying besides Lebron for the Cavs. That's a BIG besides.
-
@johnlegend LeBron is on a completely different level to the importance of his team in comparison to Shaq. LeBron IS the team -
@Epicous
@johnlegend it doesn't matter Hisham. He was talking about experience. Shaq wasn't the main guy but he was still a big factor -
@theamanx8@johnlegend He said core. LeBron is the core of his team, Shaq wasn't -
@Epicous
@johnlegend the core is always one person? -
@theamanx8@johnlegend are you asking or what? Obviously core is the main players but LeBron is the only main player on the cavs

@johnlegend Pistons had been to conf finals shortly before, and the midseason trade for 'Sheed only made them better. I vote GS as unique!Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
