1 close game, 4 blowouts. The storylines are pretty meh too outside of green going ham from nowhere and lebron choking like a bitch. Hoping the last 2 games can be competitive after halftime.

Last year's Finals were worse. Game 1 was good, and then it was bleh. 2009 was also pretty horrible. I'd say this is an average series. It looks worse because we have had some fantastic series recently in 2010 and 2011.

the games tend to be blowouts indeed, but from a pure quality point of view, there have not been a stronger series in a very long time. Neither team choking, both hitting a crazy amount of shots despite great defense and the overall value of players is as high as it can be.

If this series goes seven like it seems it will go then no. No 7 games NBA final can ever be considered one of worst of anything. Besides, the story lines were good, tbh. Parker's crazy shot in game one, Lebron's block on Tiago, Spurs record number of threes in game 3, Green's record of threes, Manu coming up huge in what could be his last game ever as a Spur in San Antonio after being called done, Lebron and Duncan's legacy on the line, etc, etc, etc. Besides, every game has been pretty damn entartaining 'tilll the blowout part.

RG3 wont last 5 years with his playing style in that system. he'll be injured more than michael vick. and as soon as he loses his speed those NFL defenses will be nipping at his heels.

Oh this argument again. So you're certain they won't change their gameplan and playing style?

son... they run that system because they dont have an Oline good enough torun a conventional offense. they could change the systemsure, but the success will be limited and RG3 will be running for his life.

Exactly, their oline is shit but we got some young guys that should be able to step in and do a good job after developing the past few years. Actually tbh outside RT the line was above average. It's just polumbus sucked so much dick the rest of the line had to collapse. Not his fault tho, he's a career 3rd stringer that was forced to start

This series still has potential tho these last 2 games...i read that lebron is the leading scorer in NBA history in elimination games. I think heat takes this one..

that stat doesn't say much, only 1 of those was in finals in 2011 where he went for 21 point and as we know Lebron isn't a playoff choker, he's a finals choker

i still have Heat in 7 though

tbh most Finals suck. especially if you dislike both teams and don't like any of the starts. I haven't watched a finals since 2007 NBA Finals. Yup that's right. And last non-spurs Finals I watched was.... mmmm... 2002 Lakers-Sixers? I used to like AI and the Philly team

Not sure how you can make an argument on how the 2013 spurs are better than the 11 mavs then tbh

oh I watched the mavs - lakers series for sure. and I also payed attention to the Finals series. I'll give you that, I did pay 11 Finals some attention at least(read news, boxscores, etc), and maybe even watched few minutes here and there. I was rooting for Dirk. I'm very familiar with 11 Mavs, probably as much as you are with 13 Spurs.

a 6, potentially 7 game Finals cannot be possibly called a "bad" series.

Dem Heats are doing the best they can to make it interesting. They are going to dominate tonight and Thursday.

07' series stands still as the worst finals in my mind. it was a landslide and probably the most lopsided finals in NBA history tbh
