My last post began like this:
“Game Five was the best game of the Finals, by far: Close, well-played, and two superstars matching each other blow for blow.”
Game Six was none of those things. Instead, after a remarkably exciting Bubble Playoffs, the Finals ended with a thud.
Earlier in the Finals, I wrote that “other than the fans of the team doing the sweeping, no one enjoys the sweep of any series, especially if it happens in the NBA Finals”. The same is true of a blow-out, but even more so.
