I was correct on all of them. I stated time and time again that seeds 2-7 is anyone's series. I did say I wouldn't be surprised if Miami beat the Cavs but that was when the Cavs were not clicking and playing so inconsistent. That is not the case anymore
Cavs did a few things differently against Detroit than they had all season:
1. In the regular season, Lue would pull Kyrie with 3:00 left in the first quarter and then put him on the floor to lead the second unit at the beginning of the second quarter. In the Detroit series, he switched out Kyrie and LeBron. The cohesiveness between LeBron and Dellavedova (and LeBron's ungodly court vision) allowed the second unit to play much better than they did with Kyrie.
2. Cavs played Love at the 5 several times against the Pistons and it worked. Love getting paint touches opened a lot of offense up for the Cavs because of his elite passing ability.
3. They played harder and no longer look bored.

So he's beta because he chooses to not make a poor decision "in the clutch" by not trying to force something that statistically has a horrible chance of succeeding?
And how many games have you watched KD "in the clutch" to make your assessment? What do you even define "in the clutch" as?

Good fight Dallas. Really hope they can make a splash in FA. Maybe steal Drummond or Demar?

DeROZAN Is going home to LA if not staying where he is IMO.

knowing Cuban he'll probably go all out for Dwight.

Proud of the fight my Mavs showed tonight.
Wasted another good year with Dirk.

No team has swung and missed in FAs more recently than Dallas. They are gonna land someone one of these days.

The biggest difference. Kyrie turned it up a notch and Love played like he used to in Minnesota with his intensity.

Overplayed or not it's absolutely true, Westbrook is the dominating presence on that team. In crunch time he takes over and KD turns into a spot up jump shooter.

Because he passes the ball to Westbrook and drifts into the wing/corner waiting to see if he gets a chance to shoot a three. Not to mention his shooting percentage plummets in the final 5 minutes, something like 34%.

Based on what? KD is 5/14 for game winning shots. Westbrook has 1 I believe. OKC turns to shite without KD. The reason Westbrook can do what he does "in the clutch" is because the other team has to respect KD. And who gives a shite if he gives it up to Westbrook? That's not beta.

I didn't base my statement on any numbers or clutch time statements. I just use the eye test. Anyone can watch an okc game and see who the lead dog is
