And that's a wrap for the Raptors, another #1 seed meets an ignoble end with both their star players caving under the pressure. And this is why I couldn't care less about the regular season :P

Lowry is no star. I'm amazed that he managed to build up such a reputation, but his play is just about above average. Especially this (regular) season.

That the Raptors caved was no surprise to me, I was watching Game 7 of the Indiana - Cleveland series and it was apparent that the Pacers were the better team matchup-wise against the Cavs.

It's a shame that Boston doesn't have Kyrie, or the Celtics would go on to the finals, but now it looks like it's gonna be another final loss for LeBron. Still hoping the Rockets toss the Warriors out in the west, at least.

I think LeBron now has more playoff sweeps than any other NBA player. Plus thanks to 76 he will get at least one day of extra rest.

I believe he set that mark last year already.
