They have reached a different level of blowing out though.
They blew them out while playing casually.
SPM, you are salty today! haha.
But really, this is life in the NBA. You have the best teams that trounce the bad teams, but then, you get the REAL payoff that comes with competitive matchups that actually mean something when the best teams in the league get together. Its all good. Next week's lineup of games will not be boring and will really show us what we are.
I will echo what was said before - no issues with blowing out the guys lower in the standings... especially on a B2B. That is load management done right.
