Okoro's been huge in the 2nd half. Banchero has been kicking his behind the whole series, but this 2nd half has been the best he's played in the entire series. Saving the season.

Does the fact that neither team won on the road mean that this series never started?

Is it me or does Paolo dominate the ball a little too much?

Dang, too bad. This has to be super disappointing for the Magic and their fans, but it was still such a great season for them. I hope they can build upon it and come out stronger next year and not be complacent with their roster building and return to a below .500 team.

He could definitely use a 2nd star player that is a 1 or a 2. Magic need a better option running point.

Both of these teams are ridiculously good at defense. Tends to make the offense frustrating to watch.

To think, if the Cavs didn't tank the final game of the season, they probably wouldn't be going against the Celtics next round to get swept. Maybe they'd be going against the Knicks next round to get swept.
