AD's length on both D & O is what was the difference. Yeah, some chit tito hit a 3 here and there, but in the bigger scheme of things, we had no answer for AD unfortunately.

Couldn't be more happy for Mion finally getting that ring. Much deserved

For the record, we did not lose a playoff series (until now) since I adopted all this Milwaukee Bucks paraphernalia.

I'm getting rid of it soon and taking a shower.

Watching Wade’s greatest highlights on NBATV right now. Loving it. Great season btw. Love this team. Lebron is pure cringe and could care less about him winning this chip.

Just goes to show it's better to be lucky than good. Actually, I have no problem with Mion getting the ring. He didn't want to back up a rookie, threw tantrums, got traded but learned his lesson and kept his mouth shut with his new team. And now he's a champion.

A lot of the damage today was the other guys.

Rondo and KCP killed us today. Rondo in that 2nd quarter...woy, he flat out abused us.

It’s imperative that we get bigger next year. Crowder and Iguodala at the 4 was a cute experiment but it’s not going to win a chip versus big teams like the Lakers.

"LeBron is pure cringe...". Those four words pretty much sum up these Finals. lol

Makes no sense. The playoffs are all about game planning, no one catches anyone by surprise in a best of 7 series

Teams literally game plan all year against major competitors to their championship hopes. They literally go out and get certain players to better compete or overpower them. You are literally doing that in this thread. But telling me in a 7 game series everything is accounted for.

Most teams didn't even know enough about us to prepare for us enough to learn how to play against a simple zone. It took Boston 5 games to even come up with something. They knew nothing about like half our rotation except from what they started to see in the bubble. You think if we were considered major threats from day one like a Lakers or Clippers, that happens? OK.

Lie to yourself and not me. Because what I'm saying is facts.

Yeah I'm sure the Bucks and Celts were game planning for other teams when we were up 1-0 and then 2-0 on them. Not like MIL or BOS had experience getting clamped by TOR's zone, but yeah let's diminish the Heat for emulating and executing it vs them as well. Oh they didn't make moves at the trade deadline to account for us? Well then that changes everything I guess. Perhaps we should go back through history and award asterisks to all teams that weren't preseason favorites

But hey feel whatever you want about this team. Have fun in the offseason and we'll see you again when we're making our 2021 Finals run

Yeah. Because obviously having one day off to prepare from game to game in a series is the same as prepping for an entire season to play a team you expect to have to beat to win a championship.

The fact that you are throwing a tantrum over me saying the simple FACT that this team clearly overachieved and championship contention let alone a finals appearance is not guaranteed by just adding another star is funny. Because yall were the same ones who didn't gaf how this series turned out and were saying every win was house money. Now suddenly my saying this team isn't as close as people are saying is so bad :roll:
