No other player can help rejuvinate the NBA status in these playoffs other than LeBron. Nobody is interested in watch the Spurs methodically going about their business. Sex sells and a LeBron jam is like the next Paris Hilton/Pam Anderson/Kim Kardashian bootleg video, but all of them together. Ratings are down and the NBA is losing money. The execs were busting a nut when they saw him go off for almost 50 becuase their plan was working and their wallets were getting fatter at the same time. Of course they want LeBron in the finals and they're gonna do everything they possibly can to see to it that he gets there. Don't believe me? Just ask D Wade.
You are preaching to the choir brothah.Quote:

Because EVERYBODY outside of Texas cares about King James. More commercials, more exposure, more jersey sales than all of the Spurs Franchise combined. period.
It would make it that much sweeter when the Spurs beat the Cavs in the Finals (if it happens).Quote:

Let's see, he's 23. Does anyone REALLY want to have to put up with the press hanging off bronbrons sack for the next 12-15 years ? I sure don't.Quote:

And not everyone outside of Texas would be rooting for LeBron...
Wow, you have high expectations for being a dynasty. If they win this year, they will be the 4th greatest franchise in league history, and they will have done all of that in only 8 years. You should probably revisit your idea of what constitutes a sports dynasty.Quote:

It's all semantics, I guess anyone can define the term anyway they like. I'm sure there's someone out there that only includes the Wooden led UCLA team a dynasty because you have to win 10 in a row or something like that. I'd love to see them get two in a row too - this year and next. :smokin
Did the Celtics of Bill Russell era and Lakers of Magic Johnson era win consecutive titles?? I do believe they're considered to be a dynasty for their respective era.
BTW, I could give 2 sh*ts about Lebron; always have, always will. In his rookie year, I even called in to a sports talk radio show to give my opinion on how the guy looks like he must have taken alot of roids during high school or he was a freak of nature! You rarely see a guy THAT muscle-bound in HS; in other words, he looked abnormal.
Uh, yeah.Quote:

It is all semantics, though. It's tough to call a team a dynasty, IMO, when they haven't even won their conference in consecutive years, let alone the championship.

There are probably only a couple hand-full of franchises in all sports that have accomplished this feat.
DisgruntledLionsFan, I got your PM about not understanding the pot meet kettle crack.
Just referring to the fact that Spurs and Detroit were the only teams in like 20 years that didn't win at least back to backs. Now add Miami to the list.
I get your point to a certain extent but comparing those pre-CBA dynasties to todays is not really fair. There is so much more parity in the league now. Just in the West, there are 4 or 5 legitimate contenders to make the finals next year.
Ahh, I gotcha now CC. Thanks for clarifying.
It's just odd to me how the Spurs are in position to win the title only in odd years. It's almost like they need a year to recharge and refocus.
Too bad the finals ratings are gonna be trumped by bitch ass #24's continuous whining.Quote:

Plus, when they don't win the conference, they don't even make the conference finals. The Spurs are an oddity to me.
And I realize I am arguing the .01% view on this board, ATX, no need to be a douchebag about it.
