"Ship austin and everyone off"

Am I the only one who remembers Austin just came back from a month long injury and got thrown straight against the best defense in the league? Ajay had 24 points and 10 assists off the bench, Chet went 9/14 for 18, and their bench outscored ours 44 to 31. I dont think its our starting 5 that's the problem but more so our bench, We’re down 3-0 without our leading scorer and a guy who changes the entire offense just by being on the floor. People have been calling a sweep since day one, and now that the literally predictable outcome is happening against the 1 seed, everyone’s acting like it’s some kind of revelation. LeBron played like 38 minutes and still went out there and tried and god forbid a 41 year old actually plays like a 41 year old for once, Reaves had 5 turnovers which killed us, This team is running on fumes short handed. Be upset, yeah i get that we're getting our asses whooped but it comes to a point bro.
