I had a similar feeling. That same world has us as a 3 seed at worst.

Pretty much a perfect quarter, Pacers had a soft whistle and still only scored 13

Absolutely hate coaches who sit stars because of foul trouble. Refs know how many Giannis has and rather him play 42 min and foul out in OT then him play 35 and finish with four fouls and a loss in regulation

The question I have is, you see this across all sports with coaches being stubborn making obvious changes. Why are they like that?
Might be a player contract thing they don't want to make public? I can't think of another good reason to not adapt to reality.

Sims kinda just gotta be a screen and o rebound guy on offense. He's been a disaster there to start this quarter.
