C9 Lost It is the Pitched Story and why is Doublet there?

Love how every single story and talking point about last year's finals has been about Jenson's very questionable lack of ult and zhonyas in the last team fight that lost C9 the championship. It's like the analyst understand that C9 would have won that championship if Jenson pushed R or 1. No on is talking about TSM actually winning, but about C9 losing. It's all anyone has talked about these first two days. It's like no one acknowledges that TSM won something last split. Just a thought.

One more question is Why does Doublelift get to stand onstage while TSM is unveiling their championship banner? The toilet paper I just used did just as much work for TSM as Doublelift last season. I think it's understood that Doublelift doesn't mean much to that team. They can easily win a championship without him. Just not sure why he gets to stand up there while they unveil their championship banner. At least let Turtle stand up there when his game ends. He actually earned it.

Probably because that's exactly it

C9 was going to win that game but Jensen got bursted down so quickly and bubbled...

Also, its easier to pick and point at flaws when you lose than when you win

Going into the Split, TSM beat C9 in the 2016 Summer Split with D-Lift. Entering the 2017 Spring Split TSM didn't have Doublelift and over all had a very up and down split where it was C9's Finals to Win as they were favored with the TSM Wildturtle being a huge ?
Point is Cloud 9 was the story to Win heading into the FInals and C9 was and still are the story because they should have won. MCHammer made a good point with " Also, its easier to pick and point at flaws when you lose than when you win". TSM gets the glory that moment and no one can take that away from them, however the blame, the story, the "talking behind their back" per say belongs to C9.
DEN VS SEA best O vs best D - SEA won but for a full year it was nothing but how bad the Broncos played etc that made the stories because like Hammer said " its easier to pick and point at flaws when you lose than when you win"
