This is a strategy I never understood why teams don't impose this. Have your 10th man simply foul him and not only foul him go for the knees or shoulders. Get him in a brawl. He is naturally programmed to fight. He will comply. Just egg him on.
You don't contribute much but when you do....it sucks. Go back to your drugs.
Do mods feel it is their duty to start pointless threads? Everyone knows it is more likely a sweep in both instances than even a 4-2 series. This isn't a 1 shot deal. They drag the playoffs out for 2 months when everyone knows only 3 teams have a chance to win. Golden St, San Antonio, and Cleveland.
Even if close series, you think the NBA will have Lebron James and Curry going out in the 1st round.
I like Van gundy, but Lebron is guaranteed to win on the road at least once in Detroit so knowing that Detroit would have to take 2 in cleveland....can't see it happening. In other words, there's no way the nba lets Lebron exit in the first round.
