lbj is great

but kawhi really had a phenomenal season and dragged a terribly inconsistent team to the second best record in the nba. that's pretty cool

Just got home and thought - hey I'll put the fourth quarter on and see what's up. What the hell... I didn't spend league pass money to watch Jonas Jerebko versus Derrick Williams in the Eastern Conference Finals.

Getting swept is one thing, there should be another word or phrase for this kind of domination (i.e. getting blown out four times in the Conference Finals when you are the one seed).

two years in a row now team vs lebron. Bill simmons will say 25-7-7 is the "lebron" but maybe this should be it..utterly demoralizing 1 seed

Wake me up when the finals start - I'm going to bed...

And this is different to the West Finals where it's at least mostly competitive and would be much more so with a Healthy Kawhi. Also - SAS has not lost at home yet.

Lebron seems like he's eating the C's alive without even really trying.

Once Lebron goes to the finals inevitably, there will only be three times since 2007 he wasn't in the finals (2008, 2009, 2010)

Two of those missed appearances were at the hands of the Celtics too.

Yeah Hibbert probably has the weirdest career arc of anyone I can think of. It'd be really interesting to see JV turn a corner on defense because he's insanely efficient in the post but as long as he stays in Toronto I don't really see that happening. He'll get sporadic playing time and almost none in crunch time. JV with a Carlisle-style Postion Whisperer coach would be a very interesting thing to see

There are two things to remember. He was on a very good defensive team when he taught the world verticality, he's not quick so he needs guards to be slowed on their way to the basket to move his body into the way. And two, he's been chronically nursing some injury seemingly forever
