is this the most lopsided finals ever?

the only other finals I can think of where the disparity between the two teams as this far was the 07 Cavs-Spurs, 01 Sixers-Lakers, and 02 Nets-Lakers

and even in those series the Cavs, Sixers and Nets were all elite defensive teams. The Cavs aren't elite at anything. This is going to get ugly

Last year was pretty bad honestly, but the ones you listed are all worse. Maybe 1981 when the 40-42 rockets played the Celtics. That’s pretty decisive. My top five most lopsided for the last 40 years though. 1981, 2001, 2002, 2007, and 2018.

The cavaliers were good defensively in 2015 at least. I’m not totally sure love functions well as a #2 even. Love this postseason is averaging 14 points on 39% shooting. He’s had a few games these playoffs that were so bad a few people asked if he was point shaving. Kyle Korver has been his most consistant teammate so far :picard:

Not as bad as Lakers-Nets the next season.


I think that Nets team had more talent maybe it’s me because I used to think Kerry Kittles and Van Horn were the shyt and they had K-mart and Richard Jefferson who I thought was going to be a hof player...

Glad I ain’t a GM.
