There certainly were more than a "couple people".

I can only assume that you don't use Twitter and didn't see it. Also a lot of talking heads on ESPN were crowning them early....even the respectable ones like Wilbon & Kornheiser.

ESPN was actually the worst from what I could tell. Definitely not most people.

Right, so a few people are not most people.

Also, I mean you know these media types like hyperbole to get attention.

Definitely an underwhelming playoffs for Harden but I think he'll be fine. I'm not going to put this on him though. Even if we got his best I don't think it would have been enough because the supporting cast after 1-4 is pretty suspect.

Jordan in particular, but Thybulle was a huge disappointment as well. Green was Mr. Hot and Cold as usual. Niang was awful in the Miami series, shot like 6 for 28 or something. And they don't have great wing defenders.

We'll see what the offseason brings.

By the way, if you really want to know what went wrong with the Sixers (aside from Embiid's injuries which clearly made things way more difficult), it was choosing Horford and Simmons over Butler a few years ago. Mind numbingly dumb decision that we're still paying for.

Minnesota blew it with Butler as well. Apparently he was too much of a hard worker for them.

Tatum was already great player but he's taken a huge step forward this postseason.

I thought for sure that Giannis and the Bucks were going to overtake them when they were making that 4th qtr surge, but JT turned their ass away with an array of incredible shots.

He's going to win an MVP sometime down the road.

7 o'clock tonight we find out if the Mavs want this bad enough.

The damn Mavs ruined my evening. I thought we were going to be treated to a tight game 7 but they're beating the shit out of the Suns so badly that I had to turn the game off. :lol
