-Better Coaching
-Strong international scouting and investment (compared to none for the C's)
-Better planning/Long term vision (investing in guys like splitter and scola even if they won't come over for 1-2 years)
-Ability to trade vets for draft picks instead of overpaying for soon to be FAs (george hill turned into kawhi leonard).
-Better Drafting (blair, leonard)
-Better scouting/signing of unproven young guys/d leaugers (green, neal)
-Better cap management (i.e. no green type deal and no year to year patching like Wallace/JO. Their FA signings are smarter, more impactful, less "name brand," and have impact over more seasons.)
