I don't understand why people say this.
The Pacers were competitive when Thomas coached them.
He also drafted most of the franchise in Toronto and they were a playoff team long before West finally came on board and made Memphis/Vancouver a playoff team.
Granted it was in the East, but he was still successful.
Now, the CBA, that's a different story. But, I remember that league already falling apart before Thomas bought the league to try and save it.
