Ya, don't try to copy them. Copy the team that wins the cup.
99% of the time, the contenders win. Try and be like that instead of hoping to be like the 1%. Build through the draft, make smart trades, be loyal to the team instead of the veteran players, acknowledged how good(or not good) your team is and approach the year accordingly instead of always trying to "just make it in because anything can happen", when star players won't re-sign know that you have to trade then, acquire picks when you can, take advantage of other teams, don't "win for pride" when the team is eliminated from the playoffs just to get the worst draft position....stuff like that.
