To be honest, I was pretty surprised at how well I took it. Even though I was preaching optimism and was obviously hoping (and talking myself into believing) that we would pull out the series, I sort of accepted our fate after game 4, in a way. Game 7 last year was a much, much, much tougher pill to swallow.
Of course, it helps to see the Lakers getting swept and some really, really exciting action going on in other places (Grizz-Thunder, Heat-Bulls, etc).
