00:00You know, Jacob, one of the least interesting finals, and let's just be honest, a really
00:07long time.
00:08Like, the games were just, you know, not compelling, even though, you know, last year's series
00:13was similar in the way that Denver dominated Miami.
00:16I don't know.
00:17It just felt different.
00:18You had Nicola Jokic playing at a very high level.
00:21There was just something missing about this series.
00:23Now, it takes nothing away from the Boston Celtics.
00:25They played fantastic.
00:26They were the best team in the NBA from start to finish.
00:29But just these games, Jacob, were just not that close, you know?
00:34And maybe that's why.
00:35I don't know.
00:36But I just, to me, it was a disappointing finals.
00:39There certainly wasn't much drama in these finals, you know?
00:42We kind of came in.
00:43There was a lot of exciting storylines with Kyrie Irving going back to Boston, playing
00:47against his former team, Christaps Porzingis playing against his former team.
00:52You know, we were hoping to see some greatness from Luka Doncic, Jason Tatum, Jalen Brown,
00:56Kyrie too.
00:57All these guys had the potential to, you know, be great and keep these games close.
01:02But all the games felt like blowouts, like you said.
01:05They were sort of out of reach.
01:06I know Dallas fought back in a few of the first games to make it close late before Boston
01:10pulled away again in all three of those.
01:13But there just really wasn't much drama.
01:15The Celtics kind of went up 3-0.
01:17So I can definitely sympathize with those who say it's not an exciting finals because
01:23it really wasn't.
01:24There wasn't too much drama, which I know Celtics fans will be happy about because there
01:28was too much drama with the Celtics for about five years there.
01:31But I definitely think that there's something to the fact that these games just weren't
01:36close, weren't competitive, despite on paper being an intriguing matchup.
