Same old story with the cavs, they make it to the 2nd round and then just fall apart. D Mitchell drives (and flops) so recklessly that it adds up and he inevitably gets injured
everyone got so sensitive after 9-11... thanks alot bin laden

Kudos to the Pacers. What a statement series from them

Can?t win with small guards in the playoffs. Gentlemen sweep for the Pacers.

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

Pretty big failure for Cleveland with their expectations. Granted, I never really took them that seriously. Never really thought they were coming out of the East.

I do seriously hope that Indy can beat down NYK, though.

Mitchell and Garland went 12-41 from the field.

I don't know who I want to win between NY and Indy.

Why do folks want NY to lose?

What the heck happened to the Cavs?   Were they just regular season contenders?  Was Indy a LOT better than everyone thought?
Bad matchup for Cleveland?  All of the above?

I find Indy more likeable as players.   I like Hali, Nesmith, and Siakam.   Don't like the knicks players as much.

Injuries as well to their key players. I don?t know if they underestimated the Pacers but not playing 3 key guys in game 1 did them in. Garland missed game 2 as well.

Lot of blue here. Blue trim on OKC. Blue jerseys and shorts for DEN. Blue in the painted area. Blue on the sidelines and baseline.

DEN should have been forced to wear a different colour jersey.

Don?t let them off the hook. Game 2 was an all time choke job and game 4 they had the full squad in the first half and that was one of the most pathetic performances in basketball history.

Cavs had the easiest first round match up...a Heat team that quit. Then all of the sudden in round 2 they are injured.

Cavs just aren't a playoff team.
