When I see Philly get beat by a team like the Nets, it just makes me think of how overrated our playoff run was last year.
We played at a 48 win pace, barely beat a poorly coached 44 win Bucks team in 7 games... knocked off a woefully unprepared dysfunctional Philly team... and then took LeBron to 7 games - which is less impressive when you realize Indiana also took LeBron to 7 games in Round 1 (and actually outscored them over the series), Bron ended up getting completely swept in the finals, and failed to even take a team to the playoffs this year.
Thank the basketball gods we have Kyrie and Hayward back. Anyone who thinks we'd actually compete in the playoffs without those two based on last year's success is off base.
