Isnt it funny how after each game, the big talking heads change their narrative on the outcome of the series. Listen to me for a second. When the Celtics blew out the Cavs in game 1, everyone said “Wow, this Celtics team is for real, if they can win game two and take a 2-0 lead, the Cavs are in trouble.” Then the C’s went onto win game 2 in dominating fashion again. “Wow, series over, The Celtics and Brad Stevens are the best in the East and there is no question. I can’t wait to see the Celtics and Brad Stephens take on the defending champs in the finals”. The series is 2-0, the C’s took care of home court and did what they were supposed to do and now all of a sudden, the big talking heads double down on series over. Here comes games 3 and 4 in Ohio. Blow outs, not even close games and the narrative changes with these talking heads. “Lebron is KING, i never doubted him, Cavs in 6. blah blah blah”
Exact same thing happening in the west. Warriors take game 1 and the narrative is how dominate the Warriors are. Then Houston wins game 2 by 30 points and here comes the talking heads. Warriors are in trouble, Houston is the better team. Game 3, Warriors win by 41. YES 41, and lets flip the narrative again.
I expect the narrative to flip flop about 4 more times before these conference finals are over. What i dont listen to anymore are the “Talking Heads”
Why do we flip the narrative? We have 82 game sample size of who these teams are, so why do we listen to these guys and change who we think these teams are because of 1 playoff game?
