And maybe the Cavs were just too young and unprepared for the playoffs. 5 beating 4 isn't really a big upset. Yes the Bucks losing was a huge surprise, but lets be real. Giannis missed most of the series, and in game 5 he didn't have his jumper, which can happen to him on nights. Also, its also the truth that the regular season is increasingly fake. If Lebron and AD were only allowed to play in 5/7 games in the series do the Lakers have as good of a chance? If Draymond isn't allowed to commit ticky tack fouls all over the place on defense do the Warriors? Like, I like his defense, but he's fouling out in minute 25 with that style in the regular season. | ||

Normally, yes, 5 beating 4 isn't a big upset. I just thought there was more of a separation between Cavs/Suns and Knicks/Clippers this year. The Knicks had more of the regular season overachiever look to me. I'm just not sold on them. The west had a lot of lower seeds with injury and other problems all year. They just looked more dangerous if any of them came together. But it's all fine in the west now. | ||

And what is with this dumb debate about coaches not calling timeout at the end of games. There are pros and cons for doing so. | ||
