The problem is that they would've gotten a wake-up call if that's what it was. Look at the Pistons, they woke up and wrapped their series up quickly and convincingly. Boston, on the other hand, may not have another gear or mode or whatever you want to call it. They may have been going all out the entire season and now when other teams step it up they simply can't.
