Games like that are why I don't watch much anymore. You can build an incredible team but it's a storyline league and way too easy to manipulate, they'll get the "right" teams in as much as they can. This is especially apparent in the playoffs.
The Raptors could be 1.5 times better than Cleveland (not saying they are, just an example) in a playoff series and I absolutely guarantee you we see the refs go to work and the league gets the storyline "Lebron tries to defeat Golden State and bring home one more championship before he leaves!!!!!!!".
They WOULD NOT pass that up.
