Shit son, Mad jealous. I really think that if the Lakers steal one of the two games in Boston, this series is over.
Also, every single one of BSPN's "experts" have the Lakers picked, with Legler being the only exception. This is gonna be good. I don't see why the Lakers are such "favorites" here. This is two powerhouses going head to head. |

I wouldnt say either are favorites. My honest opinion is they are equally matched. When there is one obviously pro to the others con, thats matched vice versa. Regardless, this will be a Finals to watch for sure...and thank god, i miss watching basketball in June...havent done it for the past 3 years or so.

ok, I don't undertsand "TV" and all, but can someone explain to me...
Why the fuck every game starts at 9pm ET and there are no Friday or Saturday games? WTF... I remember the 1980's, we had afternoon games on the weekend. I know, 9pm East is 6pm on the west... but damn... just seems like they're going to to lose a chunk of the audince going that late, also how many parents will let their kids stay up till midnight on a school/camp night...? dunno, just doesn't make sense. |

Makes perfect sense. You cant have a weekday game at 6ET in the Finals, it would only be 3pm in the West. Plus 9pm primetime, when they will get the most viewers.

Who wants to watch basketball in the first weekend in June? People are out on Friday and Saturdays. Those days are never big draws for TV ratings anyways.

I think for Boston to win they have to
1. win at home 2. have large margin of victories. I believe in close games that Phil Jackson would outcoach Doc easily. |

I agree Sammy G we have to wait till Thurs. It also will last TWO WEEKS if it goes 7 games because of some 3 day periods in between games.

Can't say I'm too surprised, but Flip Saunders got fired as the Pistons coach. I kinda saw this coming since Pistons went to the finals in 04 and 05. But when Flip came in 06, they haven't been back since. I didn't mind him as a coach, but when a team is at the top and he couldn't keep them there, something is wrong.

Flip Saunders is to the NBA as Marty Schottenheimer is to the NFL. They can kick some serious ass in the regular season, but somehow seem to fail during the playoffs.
Flip only had a year left. Maybe if Dumars went and found a big name, Detroit could go back to the finals. |

Coaches getting fired left and right. Does Phoenix and Dallas still need a coach? I think Chicago is hiring Collins or already did. I haven't heard anything lately.

Jackson wants this one bad, and he wants it in Boston so he can light a cigar in the Garden like Red used to.
He and Red never liked each other, Red made some comments a few years back how Jackson doesn't stick with a team when they get bad and try and rebuild, how he was just picking and choosing a team that would win and make more money, where Red turned down a lot of money from the Knicks to stay with Boston. Also in fairness the "player coach" championships were as much Red as they were Rusell or Heinson. |

This will be Phil's 10th ring as a Coach. Which is one more than Red. I like Phil Jackson myself.

lol Jackson looks exactly like the KFC Guy, just like D'antoni reminds me of the Pringles guy.
Coaching wise, this series is not even close. Phil>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Rivers. |

Rivers has been outcoached at almost every turn in the playoffs.

I'm not looking forward to ABC's glamorized, bush league style coverage of the NBA finals.
We need the NBA on NBC back... |

NBA on NBC is the GOAT
Although Van Gundy and Marc Jackson are great on the commentary for ABC |

There are rumors of D-wade going to Chicago for the no. 1 draft pick and some other players. So D-Wade plus Beasley or Rose unless the Heat can get both draft picks and have Rose and Beasley on the same team. That'd be interested if any of it is true. Also the finals are starting tomorrow!

OK. It's time. I am quite nervous about game 1 actually, I don't think it is probable that we will win. If there's a game we can steal in Boston I think it's game 2. But here's hoping to a huge win tonight.
