I don't think it's as much the fact that they lost, as that they lost to a team that it seems evident they should have beaten comfortably. I basically agree with Barkley's take on their offense. Shot selection was absolutely terrible. Not that it's a shame to be out-coached by Spoelstra, things happen in sports, etc. but when it looks like the plan is just to come down and jack up a random three pointer and you're in the conference finals, it's reasonable to expect more than that.

It's completely different if you just lose to a better team, or one where it's a close matchup talent wise, there's a reasonable game plan and you just don't come out on top. Then you just tip your cap and move on with your life.
