NBA playoffs are boring, that's not necessarily a bad thing (Article)

[Canada Goose]

It’s true that even without predetermined finals, the playoffs have been, by any measure, a snooze. Rockets-Thunder was far more fun to anticipate and theorize about than it was to watch. Celtics-Bulls had the makings of a classic until Rajon Rondo got hurt. Clippers-Jazz went seven but the finale was a complete dud for a series that lost everything off its fastball when Blake Griffin went down. Raptors-Bucks gave us a Giannis game or two … but to be honest I’ve all but forgotten it.

It aint guaranteed that GS-Cavs will be a classic series... definitely a chance GS wins in 5 or 6

Breh I don't even think a series can be classic in less than 7 games

Knicks in the 90s had a lot of classic playoff series.

Maybe had two Game 7s.
One vs Chicago
And one vs Houston.

Wait. No. They had Game 7 vs the Pacers twice.
And twice against the Heat.


Damn you might be right.

There is no classic 5 or 6 game series (since the NBA changed the 1st round to 7).

I was expecting a Bulls win vs Celts in 7 but Rondo got hurt, Wade kinda disappointed me Game 6 and Bulls collapsed.

Bron playing great and those 3's fallin BUT both Warriors and Cavs need to be tested in WCFs and ECFs. Warriors had cakewalk last 3 years except vs OKC last season. Even tho IT has heart and the fire of a lion....Celts may not make it past Wiz let alone Cavs. I am enjoying Spurs vs. Rox and Wiz vs. Celtics playoff series. The rest....

Hope Bron and co. don't get gassed out and can control pace vs Warriors in Finals
