Also let's not forget. My two All-Star in their prime bigs just beat Pau Gasol and Marcin Gortat. Now you want me to believe they get done in by Chris Bosh and Thad Young?
A) that's why I didn't vote for you last round. You shouldn't have won.
B) so your 4th seed barely scraped by a 5th seed. My team finished first in the division, the conference, and the league. They've been well rested, and just got done sweeping their first round opponent. Your team barely won its division, the weakest in the entire league, and barely won its first round matchups.
All the gifs and crappy photoshops in the world won't make up for the fact that you're a second round exit playoff team, any one smart trade away from true contention.
Clutch? We got that b role.
Playmakers? We got that b role.
Defenders? We got that b role.
3 elite talents who don't fit together surrounded by a crew of misfit malcontents with no real depth? NO! That's too specific! (but it does describe the Boston Celtics)
We got beef if we wanna slow it down, we got legs if they wanna speed it up, and we got elite defenders all over the roster (1,2,3, and 5 all placed on bball prospectus's all-defense team), and we've got 3 elite scorers who have all won a ring.
Your team is good, but you were one trade away. You're not the better team here.
