Last year was really bad too in the East. It was the first time I realized that that Conference won't matter as long as LeBron is there.
Not exactly.


Detroit put up A FIGHT in the first round against cleveland.

That Miami vs Charlotte series was ill until the game 7 blowout


The Raptors got two games against Cleveland and had Biyombo taking Brons Lunch Money

Portland actually won a game against golden state

The thunder actually should have beat Golden State last year but had a melt down

Then u add the epic finals of 2016 it was nowhere near as bad as this playoffs has been. 2017 playoffs are officially the WOAT. I don't care how good the finals are this year. Now imagine if Golden State sweeps cleveland this year :snoop:

But isn't that what happened in 2011?

Usually they start on June 1st at the earliest but I remember in 2011 they started on like May 29th or something cause both Conference Finals wrapped up early.
I get what you saying but like how much lead do people need to travel when there's always the likelihood they dont exactly the planned cities for the finals like a week out when its still being decided in the conference finals

Finals started May 31st that year after the conference finals ended May 26th. They were supposed to start on June 2nd.

Assuming both teams sweep, this year's CF will end on May 23rd, with the Finals scheduled to start on June 1st. I'm pretty sure it's ABC's decision if they want to move it up, at best I could see them moving it up to the 30th.

How so when this literally has no bearing on the outcome. The series was over after the 1st qtr of last game. This is just a result of having a league full of shytty teams. :heh: at two teams going undefeated en route to the finals. Best basketball ever tho!
Just the narratives

I'm not arguing that last year's playoffs was worse than this year's, and my post specifically mentions the East.

The Cavs swept the first two rounds and Toronto never lead the series, so yeah it was really bad. Then you add this year on top and a trend of the East being trash is getting established.

On top of that the only competition to the Warriors are the Spurs. So if they lose before the Conference Finals we will have the same tale in both Conferences.

If he grows to at least 6'0 tall in the off season he has a chance next year.

I swear, I can't prove sports are fixed, but this outcome. :mjlol:

The ONLY way anyone watches game 4 is if the Celtics won.
