This has been a reality check and something I expected to see, but way before the finals. The team has overachieved, and I have allowed myself to buy in to the hype as well with how we have manhandled Minnesota.
But the reality is there are still some gaping holes in the roster that need to be addressed (starting level 3 that is a good shooter/POA defender, Maxi replacement/big guy that can shoot and can defend the perimeter, reliable bench scorer) - team is just way ahead of schedule.
Not to mention there is internal growth that needs to happen especially with guys like Lively, Hardy, Omax for the team to really compete.
Having said that I refuse to believe that the series is over. Protect homecourt and this can still be a series. Ya not likely but I still believe.
