Last year, IIRC, you and I talked about the playoff outcomes necessary for the regular season to maintain legitimacy and relevance.
It all sits with OKC this year. If they don't make it out of the west, what does the regular season even mean?
I do remember us discussing that. I mean OKC and Cleveland have been top of the league all season but if we’re being real, most folks really haven’t respected that. Not too many people have OKC-Cleveland as their Finals matchup either.
