I think that is a dumb thing to say.
All along I have said that the top 4 teams (warriors, thunder, cavs, spurs) are all too good to count any of them out until they are actually out.
If you have curry, lebron, or kd on your team then you always have a chance. (Westbrook, Thompson, irving, leonard, aldridge don't hurt either)
These playoffs are just proving once again and always that star power rules the nba.
That's why the jazz are currently hopeless as title contenders. Hayward as your best player is not good enough. Jazz need Exum to be a star or they need to hit a homerun in the next few years in the draft... Or less likely, they need to get a star in a trade..... Or even less likely, free agency.
The draft is the key. They need to get a homerun hit in the draft in the next 2 or 3 years.
