Not really THAT different than recent years tho, is it?
Number of 0 or 1 win losers prior to the Finals in recent years
(starting with last year)
6(2023) ,6, 5, 6, 8, 8.8, 6, 7,4 (2019)
So counting this season, half of the last 10 years have had either 7 or 8 series that weren't close. This is pretty much the norm.
And there's also the typical number of 7 game series this season (3) over the past decade.
This is what the NBA has been in terms of post-season competitiveness for a decade.
