On to the playoffs games.
First, the surprises. MIL beating TOR was a pleasure for a variety of reasons (Giannis being Greek is not the least of them.) Utah without Gobert beating LAC was a pleasant surprise too, I much prefer Utah's youth of the dullness that is LAC these days. I also had not realized what a hole LAC has at SF until I saw Luc Mbah a Moute got 35 mins.
Washington coming back after that first half against Hawks was also a mild surprise. Didn't watch the second half, ppl told me Wiz's recovery was mainly due to John Wall taking over, is that accurate?
I expected Cavs to win, and Indy did not convince it could make the surprise. They lacked the confidence throughout the game even when it got close. The leak in Twitter after the game (that PG believed he should have taken the last shot) confirmed my suspicion as to what is going on in the locker room.
Same with GSW and Portland: Portland had flashes of greatness but this should be an easy series for GSW. McGee is what I keep from that game.
Houston-OKC I did not watch at all, but it also went as expected. Westbrook's stat padding is getting exposed. I hope this series will put RW's triple double regular season avg where it belongs (=the list of the great PR stunts).
