Gotta think that ditching Bud and hiring Nurse looks really appealing to the Bucks right now. They've only got a few years left with the current core around Giannis (Middleton, Lopez, and Jrue all getting really up there in years and no all-star level young players on the team), and they've got to make every year count.
Cavs are lucky to get eliminated on the same night as a #1 seed; nobody's talking about them today, but what was supposed to be a big advantage -- Mobley and Allen on the inside -- ended up getting absolutely bodied. Was looking up the numbers on this, and their 39.1% opponent offensive rebounding rate is the second worst of any playoff team since the 99/00 season.
