Some positivity for the Cavs, the last 4 ECF loser went on to the finals the next year.

The Pacers got swept, the Celtics went down 0-3, and the Knicks went down 0-2 at home. Basically its been a trend to make the ECF, get overwhelmed and come back stronger the next year. The big question will be about Hardens age/contract situation but if they can figure that out they should feel confident running it back imo
