I guess I should say regular season vs. playoffs because I guess you could argue Utah overachieved in the regular season only to disappoint in the playoffs while the Blazers usually gave better seeded teams a run for their money.
I agree Dame is the best player on either team. But Portland typically had to fill the 3 and 4 spot on the floor with whoever they could find at a discount. They frequently failed to draft and sign long term starters at either spot, had they not spent so much money on guys like Evan Turner (and then matched Crabbe) and blown our 10th pick that we traded to them on Zach Collins they could/should have fared much better (they, like us could have had John Collins and Anunoby with the 15 and 20 picks).

Scoreless in the final eight minutes of an elimination game, at home.
Soft.
No heart.
Mentally weak.
Not a leader.
Not a winner.
Doesn't make his teammates better.
Empty stats.
Fake hustle.
Karl-Anthony Towns is the player you all told me that DeMarcus Cousins was, and I'm never going to let any of you forget it. #TheList #HateHard

Yeah that team got to the play-oifs because of Cousins, reality is KAT is a slightly better Cousins, he's healthier, less prone to meltdowns and more efficient, both are grossly overrated and didn't really achieve much in terms of any team success. Cousins couldn't even win on arguably the most stacked team ever.
Didn't say they did, wasn't the point. The Timberwolves didn't get to the playoffs because of Towns, either.
One out of three ain't bad.
This sentence is remarkable. When juxtaposed with the first sentence of your post, it makes it seem like you are simultaneously trying to give Cousins no credit for that Warriors team's success, while also blaming him for their failure. Which is some top-shelf hating, let me tell you! Salute to you, sir!
