I'm with Kenny Atkinson. If things had gone the way they SHOULD have on paper and analytics, I would have balled Halle Berry on a bearskin rug at age 22. The fact that never happened and I'm 0-1 in Berry sex and the Cavs are down 0-3 is...interesting, even academic, if you want to think about it that way. I know some of you aren't interested in hearing...etc No, but seriously: This is the kind of thing that should get Atkinson fired by this Saturday. (I never watch SportsCenter, but last night I was jellin' out 'n all logy from alcohol and actually caught the Atkinson thing there: in what world do you actually say this stuff out loud, in front of reporters?)
For CLE fans: we got Good News and Bad News. CLE fan: give us the Bad News! Okay: Cavs get swept in the ECF, at home, by 40 points, in a miserable final game from them. CLE fan: Jeeez. What's the Good News? They're up 3-1 on paper. Ya know: analytics. "Expected wins." Now they go back to MSG for a crucial 5th game on paper. Should be a dogfight. On paper.
Really impressed with the Knicks wiping the floor of Sixers and Cavs. Those teams have issues but also a lot of talent so they certainly deserve the credit Also nice they'll be well and rested while the West finalists battle it out, should provide a competitive Finals. A couple weeks ago I thought it would be a sweep or closed in 5 but OKC and Spurs are beaten up, some guys out and will reach the Finals gassed, first couple games will be key for the Knicks to get a win on the road and make it a series Finally, as pointed here before, good to see the Knicks showing a blueprint of success not built through draft and with their 2 stars being weaker on defense. We should be taking notes (although we'll never the amount of picks NY had to throw for Mikal or OG)
Btw the Knicks are having success and have this powerful top 6 because Brunson decide to sign for less 113 million, yes, no typo. Take a hint Bron!!!
