There is a lot more to it than that. Last year the perfect storm of the excitement in LV of the arrival of their first major league professional sports team combined with how the Mandala Bay mass shooting in the first week of the season forged a seemingly unstoppable “us v. the world” mentality. Teams were ready for VGK by mid-season last year already when they had a commanding lead in the Pac Div. But the emotional and psychological conditions that contributed to how that team played are impossible to replicate.
