I'm bummed out, but this isn't so bad.
It will be cathartic watching whoever comes out of the West destroy Lebron. I'm intrigued to see what Ainge does with Rozier, Baynes and Smart this offseason. I don't anticipate a big move.
As much of a "what could have been" last night was on so many levels, I'm so optimistic about this team moving forward.
My feelings, too, except I am not 100% sure how I want the Finals to play out. If CLE gets crushed, then Lebron will likely move on to form another super-team and the GSW players will all continue to take discounts.
However, if the Cavs can somehow win the championship, perhaps he will feel he can make things work in CLE. Also, guys like Thompson, Green, and Durant might start demanding actual max dollars since taking a discount would no longer guarantee a championship.
Of course if the latter happened, I couldn't watch sports tv for weeks with all the sycophants rejoicing Lebron, but it might actually be more advantageous for the Cs future.
