Just abolish the play-in, man. You saw a 10 seed win two games. You saw an 8th seed get to the Finals.

Scrap it.

I gotta give it to Cavs. They started with the intention of killing Heat early. Mitchell had those back to back threes. And defensively there were aggressive pressing our ball handlers. Cavs are just better. From how they've approached this series, I think they make it out of the East.

Cavs are great, yes.

What needs to really be understood by this board is just how dreadful Mia is though.

I think both of them are fine as top 3 paid guys as long as the other guy is elite. But, there are like 4-5 of those guys in the league... Jokic, SGA, Luka, Giannis. Heat and 25 other teams aren't getting them. Tatum is right behind, but Celtics roster is stacked. Almost opposite of Bucks with Giannis and Jokic who are both great players, but roster around them isn't great. Every year there's like 2-4 teams who are legit championship contenders and everyone else is behind.

This year I think it's going to be Thunder vs. Celtics. Maybe Cavs show up. West is a lot more interesting with Jokic and Nuggets, Edwards potentially getting in to elite level with Wolves, or maybe Curry gets hot for a series. I still think Thunder are too stacked with everyone healthy. SGA can have a bad game and they can still win and I doubt he has 4 bad games in a 7 game stretch.

On pace to lose 160-50.

41 to 14 in the 1st quarter is not something I thought I'd see.

Too many people on here have gaslit this board into thinking that Mia isnt far off from contending.

This laughingstock of a beatdown hopefully will collectively sober this board.

Spo is done as a HC
