If Team 2 celebrates and do not view their season as a failure, they will never win the title. Team 2 will end up being in 10 NBA finals and fail every single time with zero rings. Why? All due to being satisfied enough about winning the Conference Championships 10x times. They lose the finals because of this losing mentality. Where/what is the accomplishment to celebrate her That another team is better than you and that they lost? There is nothing to celebrate.
Team 1 that loses every game, could still possess that true winning mentality. They have a chance to win the title in the future. Even if they fail 9 seasons, losing all games as you mention. If they win the title one year. They have accomplished much more than team 2. They actually tried to be Winners once in their career.
This game is about winning the Finals. Not about personal stats, win losses in regular season or when you failed.
There are two group of teams in the NBA. The ones that lose one single series in the playoffs. And the other group belonging to that single team that did not lose a single series, that did not fail.
100% Jordan views losing a series as a major failure in his life. True winners are not satisfied being second. In fact they hate it so much and view that as such a failure they do everything to win.
