‘Unhealthy information, Orlando: I worry the Spider is again, and you have landed in his net (I hate me, too, proper now…).’
CLEVELAND — Wait a second… That actually did not appear like that Cavaliers group I’ve been listening to about, that soft-willed, weak-kneed, regular-season-darlings-but-playoff-dandelions squad that I have been listening to a lot about main as much as that gritty, thorough shellacking they only administered in Sport 1.
I assumed they had been speculated to fold like a home of playing cards when confronted by this younger, aggressive Orlando group. What occurred to the Mighty Wagner Brothers? Why had been they not capable of exert their German will on my mild giants and push them round?
(That wasn’t nice, however neither are the Wagners)
I consider what we’d have here’s a case of lowered expectations. And it isn’t the Cavs’ fault; it is ours.
Bear in mind final 12 months when Jarrett Allen caught a bunch of flack for admitting that the playoff lights may need been “too brilliant” for them at that time? It rubbed lots of people the incorrect method. Many thought-about it “gentle” or by some means defeatist.
In fact, individuals weren’t shocked that he felt that method. They had been simply shocked that he mentioned it. They perceived his willingness to say aloud what all of us knew to be observably true to be a weak point when, in reality, Allen’s candor and his willingness to acknowledge and acknowledge his group’s points is simply an instance of 1 his many distinctive strengths.
However this is not final 12 months. It appears the lights could have dimmed for them, and thankfully, it might seem that these lights are actually obtrusive sq. within the eyes of this younger Orlando Magic group, and I would not commerce locations with them proper now for all of the whiskey in Eire. Here is why.
Although the Cavs by no means trailed and had been just about in management all through, a lot of that basketball recreation was merely hideous to look at. Neither group precisely cloaked themselves in glory offensively, significantly from behind the arc, with each squads trying like drunk salespeople taking part in Pop-A-Shot at a Dave & Buster’s firm Christmas social gathering.
Even Mike Fratello hoped for a better scoring recreation than this! (I’ve misplaced actually everybody by now, proper?)
However this is my level: If that is how decisively the Cavs can beat Orlando after they sort of stink, simply think about what they will do to them after they inevitably do not stink in any respect. That may’t be an excellent feeling for the Magic, who acquired what was most likely the worst information doable on Saturday after they discovered firsthand that the experiences of the loss of life of Donovan Mitchell’s capability to dominate them had been drastically exaggerated.
In equity, all of us discovered it on the identical time together with them, as we could not know for positive how he’d take care of getting back from damage till we noticed him in motion. However dangerous information, Orlando: I worry the Spider is again, and you have landed in his net (I hate me, too, proper now…).
I am not saying he had the right recreation. Each groups simply sort of forgot the right way to basketball for the complete second half, which is not splendid. And I am not saying the knee is not nonetheless an element, and I will guess it’s not feeling nice at the moment. However what I can say is that, not less than as of Sport 1, that man didn’t seem restricted to me.
And when it comes all the way down to it, that is the one factor that issues. It is the rationale we do not have a first-round draft decide till 2042. It is why we needed to commerce away Finnish sensation Lauri Markkenen, aka “The Finnisher,” my Nordic muse (I do know, we needed to do it. I am nonetheless allowed to overlook him!).
As a result of if we find yourself wherever magical on this postseason, it is going to be as a result of Mitchell takes us there. Now, I am actually not guaranteeing that may occur, however due to what we noticed in Sport 1, not less than we now all know that it is doable.
Sorry, Wagners, and go Cavs.
