How did golden state beat the rockets so badly last night? I can't believe this round of the playoffs are the worse. Cleveland and golden state had more trouble in the first and second rounds. Atlanta and Houston dont even seem like they deserve to be in it still.
I saw the writing on the wall. When the Spurs blew their chances to put away the Clips, we lost out on what would've been the real NBA Finals, Warriors vs Spurs. I haven't watched one minute of the WCF or ECF yet.
Some of the worst playoffs in recent history. Who wants to watch series we all know,the results before they start.
It wasn't this way until this round. Think the clippers would have given a better fight and Paul pierce would have given cleveland a better fight. Who knocked our San antonio? The clippers? They used up all their focus beating spurs. Probably felt like the won a championship already. Lol
The first round had one good series. Clips and Spurs,the rest were pretty predictable in fact I think the first round had 7 out of 8 series go 2-0.
The last round was predictable. Warriors win, the Cavs win, the Hawks win. The only series that was interesting was the Rockets and the Clips, but we all knew they'd get knocked out by the Warriors fairly quickly.
Two 3-0 isn't interesting and at this point who do you cheer for or not cheer for?
I like basketball but they don't have the teams or guys to hate. LeBron went home, can't hate him or the Cavs who have played well. Atlanta, who even plays for. Them, can't hate them or like them. Houston has Howard but he isn't the guy he was a couple years ago, just don't care about him. Even Kobe who everyone hated is so bad that you feel sorry for him.
A few years ago you could hate the Bulls for always winning, the Pistons had the bad boys. Larry Bird was so good, you hated him. Magic and the Lakers and ShowTime? Got sick of that.
Who do we root against now? The Neat are nothing, the Knicks you feel sorry for, who can get made at a team that can't win and even lose in the lottery.
We need teams and players that we can love or hate.
Look at the NFL, Patriots and Brady, Dallas Cowboys. You can hate those teams. Up until last year we had the 49ers to love or hate. Even their off season is interesting.
