Nba Finals???? Worse Ever????

[THE_ROOKIEEE]

With All The Hype That Has Surrounded The Game, This Series Has Been One Of The Most Ridiculous Finals In Recent Memory....from A Gamlbing Standpoint That Is....i Mean It Just Seems Imo That Everyone Is Using This Series And Hype For Ones Own Benifit....the Nba And The Tv Execs To Vegas Seem To Be On The Same Page In Making Something Out Of This Whole Thing...the Hype Is Just Getting Started And The Drama Is Getting Thick Like A Daytime Drama Soap Opera.... Boston Wins The First 2 Games, The First In Unbelievable Fashion As Noone Thought They Had A Chance, Not To Also Mention The Hurt Leg Incident At A Crucial Time To Ignite The Home Crowd....to The 2nd Game Boston Winning Again But Allowing A 24 Point Lead To Shrink In 7 Minutes To Build The Hype Even More For The Series To Start In L.a.... The Total In The First Game Was Easily Going Over And Towards The End Phil Jackson And The Lake Show Refused To Foul And Turned The Ball Over In A Close Game While Todays Game Was Going Under But Boston Doesnt Play Defense And Allow Lakers To Come Back From 24 Points..... Not To Mention How The Refs Have Been So One Sided As If They Are Trying To Control Games Instead Of Letting It Play As Its Suppose To Play..... Imo I Think That This Hype Has Taken The Probability Out Of Making Some Serious Money As Past Practice Even Though There Are A Few Who Have Been Making It...but For Those Big Bettors As Myself This Is A Nothing More Than A Scripted Series To Get The Nba Back To Par With The Ratings And Its Past Game-fixing Problems....but If You Read Between The Lines Aint Nothing Changed ...the Nba Is Getting Out Of Hand And This Series Is Only Proving It Each Game!!!!! Any Thoughts ???????

lmao, its the worst ever because you are a laker lover. get real.

NOT REALLY ...IVE WON BOTH TIMES WITH BOSTON..... IM TALKING BOUT THIS AS A WHOLE IN GENERAL WITHOUT BIAS

[JDSilk]

because you were smart. before the series started, you were all on the lakers nuts. youve been on their nuts all season. i was too with my division future, but i know you have a little more bias towards them cause youve been on them all season. you cant really deny that, your elaborate 5 page lakers preview dominance post proves that from last week.

[THE_ROOKIEEE]

Dont Get Me Wrong...ive Backed The Lakers Quite Often This Year....ive Backed The Celtics In Both Games In These Finals....what Im Saying Is That Doesnt It Seem Odd To You How Things Are Unraveling For This Series....now If Detroit Or San Antonio Was Here None Of This Drama Or Hype Would Be Here As It Is Setting Up To Be

[cuse_man]

You really don't believe celtics/lakers are the 2 best teams ? detroit MAYBE, but noway spurs should be in the finals. They were just lucky to catch a young NO squad that just let the pressure get to them.

[THE_ROOKIEEE]

Of Course Not...but Im Just Implying If Either Det Or Sa Was Here ...this Series Wouldnt Be As Big As A Deal As It Is

[THE_ROOKIEEE]

This Series Is Opposite Of What Everyone Has Made It To Be And I Think That It Has A Lot To Do With Internal Nba As Both Of The Games Are Bucking Any Or All Trends To Character Of Each Team So Far.

[JDSilk]

i feel the series has met peoples expectations, unless you are a lakers fan. Lakers get three games at home, your perception will switch once more until bostons steals one on the road.

My Expectations Is To Make Money And Its Been Difficult With All The Intangibles For These First 2 Games....more In The Points Scored As Despite Being Right On The Sides ...the Totals Have Been Out Of Whack Due To What I Believe As Mentioned Above

well yea, but lakers and celtics are much bigger market. add to it the old rivalry... NBA needs anything they can get to get back in the game. NBA nowhere near what it was once at, and its their own fault imo

I think you could say that for just about every sport though. Things are always much differn't during the playoffs, and always the hardest time to make money. With the exception of a FEW games if you are able to single them out. NBA probably even more so just because of all the bullshit that goes on within the league. NFL not too far behind though. March madness is not joke either... I think the easiest post season/playoff league to cap must be the bowl games for football as long as you can avoid the teams that don't show up.

True True..... But Do You Honestly Believe The Games Are Playing Out As They Are Suppose To.....or Because Of This Hype Are The Refs And Teams Trying To Control The Game For Its Image Or Using It To Regain Something They Cant Get Back That Been Long Blemished

[THE_ROOKIEEE]

NBA probably even more so just because of all the bullshit that goes on within the league.

THIS IS WHAT IM TALKING ABOUT.... HOW ITS EFFECTING THE SERIES AS A WHOLE AND USING THIS HYPE AS ITS STEPPING STOOL

[THE_ROOKIEEE]

I Also Cant See How The Lakers Refused To Foul In The First Game As Phil Uses Clock Management Quite Well....to Todays Game Of Doc Rivers Allowing That Big Comeback To Bring Momentum To L.a.....sure The Players Control That Aspect Of The Game ..but Timeouts Even Werent Made At Crucial Times...makes You Wonder Even More
