My Spurs are 3-0.

It doesn't matter what the other teams do if Duncan & Co. are on their game.

the nba is the least interesting of the major american sporting events, IMO. you don't get the upsets that you do in football and baseball...and the nba playoffs are awful.

however, i'll watch certain teams and players...want to see how the rockets do with adelman's offense. heard yao is having a bit of a hard time picking it up. always root against the lakers.

basketball, IMO, is the most exciting sport to watch... always something interesting to see! especially run-n-gun teams like the suns... or players like kobe or lebron

oh, and you know what's boring? baseball. not only to watch, but also to play. i dont get how baseball fans can complain about how football is "you wait 30 seconds for 5 seconds of action." baseball is like, wait 10 min, get 30 seconds of action. seriously, i can just watch 1 minute of the highlighted hits/strikeouts and i'm done.

of course, this comes from someone who only regularly watches football =DDD

x2 about baseball. It always seems like baseball players aren't as passionate about their sport as basketball players are. Plus, it makes me sick that baseball players can be such lardasses! Seriously, Babe Ruth should be the exception, not the rule. Somebody tell Curt Schilling and Big Papi to lay off the baconators.

why is this an upset? dallas is 2-4.

back at ya!

let me be a little bit more clear: no upsets in the playoffs. the nba is the most scripted league around. refs determine too many games with their crappy calls and protection of the "stars." worst officiating in sports.

Dallas was a 67 win team, the #1 seed in the playoffs. They had one of the best seasons in the history of the NBA and they were eliminated by a team that went 42 and 40. It's considered one of the biggest upsets in the history of sports, not just basketball. The line on the Warriors winning the series in Vegas was along the lines of 75-1, which you never see in modern day team-vs.-team sports. It would be akin to the Lions beating the Patriots or Colts in the Super Bowl this year.

It's clear you know precious little about the league to be making such lofty assertions. I would quit while you are ahead.
