Would You be Happy If Your Team Only Made the Playoffs?
I myself am a "Championship or Bust" kinda guy, but of course some teams are just better than others. The way I see it, getting to the playoffs means little if you get knocked out. The goal is an NBA title, always.

Re: Would You be Happy If Your Team Only Made the Playoffs?
I would say it depends on the team you root for and if you mean for this season only. If I was an Orlando fan I would be estatic if you said my team would at least make the playoffs. Help convince Dwight to stay. -
Baseball or even the nfl yes, however when more than half the teams make the playoffs it dilutes the accomplishment

Football - Hellllllllll no
Basketball- In Today's NBA, with how my team is...I have no choice. That's why I always find it hilarious when I talk to Laker Fans outside of OS and they tell me that this is going to be a rough year for them(after knowing I'm a Nets Fan)and I can't help but wonder if they're trolling me or not#RespectTheCultureComment

Re: Would You be Happy If Your Team Only Made the Playoffs?
We made the playoffs last year and got swept. Last year, I would have said it was okay just to make the playoffs because it had been so long since we were relevant. Now, I need us to make some kind of noise.Originally posted by G PericoIf I ain't got it, then I gotta take it

Depends on the situation and the state of your franchise.
For instance, right now with the Bulls, it's championship or failure.
With the Cubs on the other hand, it's hope we snag a Wild Card spot and that will be a success.Comment

If your team only made the playoffs, forever, they would never win championships. That would be just as bad as never making the playoffs. Its all about championships always.Comment

This year for the Mavs it'll be rough to lose in the first round of the playoffs, so that would be a disappointment, but if they can get to the second round or further I'll consider it a success.
For the Steelers this year, if they lose in the Wild Card I'll be really disappointed. Obviously I'll be disappointed if they don't win the Super Bowl, but the divisional is gonna be tough.NFL: Pittsburgh Steelers
NBA: Dallas Mavericks
MLB: Texas Rangers
NHL: Dallas Stars

Re: Would You be Happy If Your Team Only Made the Playoffs?
No. Especially in the NBA.
But, given the choice of being contenders every year and never winning one and winning one and never being heard from (this doesn't happen in the NBA because parity is non-existent), I'd rather be relevant every year and take a shot at maybe winning one of them.
That's why even though the Suns have never won a title, being in the playoffs all but like 4 seasons since 1988, having deep runs, and playing probably the most overall entertaining style over that time period makes not having a title feel a little bit better.Comment

I could handle just playoffs forever no rings, i like watching my teams as many times as possible so if its just 4 more games I can handle that. Dont think winning a ring would change my life ...(considering i dont actually get a ring)Ericmaynor3.com

Re: Would You be Happy If Your Team Only Made the Playoffs?
Like has already been stated here, depends on the situation. After Jordan was gone there were some tough, tough years to be a Bulls fan, so just making it to the playoffs was an accomplishment. However after you get there a few times, it's time to at least start baby stepping yourself ahead and not banging your head on the same wall (I'm looking at you Atlanta).
Overall it doesn't matter, because as a great philosopher once said; "If ya ain't first, you're last."Comment

Re: Would You be Happy If Your Team Only Made the Playoffs?
My team has only made the playoffs once, and got swept. That said the playoff push was very exciting, and I went to the first playoff game in franchise history and sat a couple rows back behind the Orlando bench.
Wouldn't trade that experience for anything.
This year, no one expects us to do anything, and for good reason. But, I have seen massive improvement from the young cornerstones. If we do happen to squeak into the playoffs I won't be mad, but for this year I would rather have us get a top 3 pick.Comment
