Same here. Wizards/ Celtics was the highlight of the playoffs, and that's not saying much. Warriors/ Cavs doesn't interest me much, I've seen it before. There's better basketball action else where... Euroleague final 4, WNBA.
Bit of a predicament for the NBA. Can't be happy with this freakish playoffs.
Even when the Celtics, Lakers, and Bulls dominated it wasn't like this.
Jordan had to go through the Pistons and then Magic. Jordan also had battles with Ewing and the Knicks, Reggie Miller and the Pacers, Stockton and Malone, Barkley and Johnson.
What I'm trying to say is that there was more resistance back then with teams that had great players hat were competitive.
This is horrible. Celtics/Wizards have me some of that tough, bloody your nose, playoff bball but every other series has sucked.
It was funny hearing Masai Ujiri say, after his team got swept, we need a culture change (never mind that they played both home games without their starting pg). Now one series later, with the Celtics getting hammered, he has changed his tune a bit. Just underlines how clueless some of these GMs are.
Injuries have been a factor. Lowry/ Thomas/ Nurkic/ Hill/ Leonard. That's 5 series out of 6 with the dog crippled. Maybe not such a problem, just bad luck...
