Not surprised in the slightest.
Cavs are the Seahawks of basketball. Watch them go on a winning streak because of that.

Phew!!! Can't miss so many FTs and two open layups in the 4th.
Glad game 1 is over. I'm gonna go enjoy San Diego

lebron hasnt lost in the 1st round in a while IIRC
pacers are a tough matchup though, hope they just make cavs work.
Cavs might end up matching up with Wiz in 2nd round. Bucks

They cant play the Wiz unless its in the finals of the East. Cleveland will play the winner of Toronto-Bucks in rd 2.

If Memphis beats Spurs in game 1 - you will talk about the depth of Western Conf.
It's 1 game. Ppl over-react so much. Cavs almost lost their game 1.

I know it hasn't even been a quarter yet, but we may have dodged a huge bullet by not drawing the Grizzlies in the first round.

I don't expect Memphis to win today. And even if they do, I will be shocked if they beat the Spurs in a series.
Also, Cavs will be fine. They almost lost because they fell asleep a bit knowing it's just the Pacers. Today's game will wake them up.
Raptors got thoroughly outplayed today, though. And the Bucks are a much better matchup for the Cavs than the Raptors would be. Still time for the Raptors to pull it together but that was ugly.
I know it's just one game, but if you're a Cavs fan this is pretty much how you would want it to start.

Memphis won the season series 3-1 against spurs.
If there is an upset in 1st round, this might be it. Maybe not the best matchup for the spurs.

Eh...don't really care about opponent. I don't want to see Cavs win a title playing worse teams. I don't want Cavs to beat anyone but Warriors in Finals, if they get there. I don't want to see Cavs -Spurs. I want to see Cavs v. Warriors.
It's more fun beating great teams.
