Can you not pin everything good the Cavs do as just luck? 「Snip」 Just admit the Magic were bested, even if it was by the team you seem to despise.
Of course the Magic were bested in Game 5. If Cleveland played that way earlier, they might've swept Orlando or at most 6 games would've been the end.
Yeah, most of the time. Not always, like you were strongly implying/basically said...
As long as it works out most of the time it's no use arguing over.
Yeah, it kind of doesn't, actually. The result proves my point. Your own point should have told you that your reasoning was off...the Cavs DID win 4 out of those 14 games. Game 5 could have easily been one of them. Turns out it was.
Yes, the Magic did win all of its home games against the Cavs in the regular season. Just like it turned out to be as well.
Picking games isn't an exact science...there is a difference between disagreeing with my pick and saying it's downright wrong. You can't reasonably say that since picks are, as the name implies, just predictions. You can base it on history and all of that and be correct more often than not, but you can't just say that someone who doesn't agree is wrong, since games aren't determined on paper. On paper, a lot of people had the Cavaliers sweeping the Magic, lol.
I never said you were wrong, I disagreed and said why. If I did say you were wrong directly then I apologize.
Your obvious anti-Cleveland bias aside (which as you can tell, sort of bothers me),
I root for the Browns though. I describe it more as an anti-Cavaliers bias since there are some sports fans that have biases against other sports teams due to competition in the division or conference.
I'll note now that I'm more of a underdog rooter and that is why I was rooting for Orlando and Denver. They weren't my pick for the Finals until the Conference Finals started this year.
