25 things the NBA playoffs taught us

21. The NBA playoffs taught us that even if you knock the number 1 seed out, you could get thrashed by the number 2 seed. Poor Grizzlies just forget that the game’s smartest man is always Gregg Popovich.

22. The NBA playoffs taught us that by taking your team the furthest it has been in the playoffs can still get you sacked. In retrospect, even if you win Coach of the Year, you could get sacked as well.

23. The NBA playoffs taught us that even if you shoot 44 points in a game, it is possible to get beaten by a Manu Ginobili buzzer beater. Didn’t we begin to write the Spurs off as Stephen Curry played one of the games of his life in Game 1?

24. The NBA playoffs taught us that your college coach will always have your back even if you were one of the reason your team lost in the playoffs. Coach Jim Boeheim and Carmelo Antony love each other so much that they called smack on everyone else in the Knicks roster. Only if both of them read how many shots the forward missed each night, things could be lot less complicated.

25. The NBA playoffs taught us that the game’s best player of this generation is LeBron James. Let us end with that!

About the author

I like to think Liverpool will win their 19th league title soon and that is how optimistic of a person I am. Apart from being a Kopite, my religion's principles are based upon Peyton Manning's mind, Derek Jeter's hit, Adam Gilchrist's invincibility, Michael Jordan's airness and Roger Federer's grace. Also if I had to lose weight, I would only do it for fitting in a Kenny Dalglish's No. 7 jersey.
