Gee, y'think America wants to see another Spurs final?
It's ABC, not Stern, that wants to see a Lakers-Celtics final. ABC paid the dough, even if no one watches. But they promise their advertisers numbers, based on history.
Right.
Stern is there to merely execute.
So freaking easy to make money out of these supposedly fair "sports" events.......

I wonder what would make LakerFan stop sucking Kobe...
Rape didn't do it.
Breaking up a championship team didn't do it.
Demanding a trade didn't do it.
I don't have a doubt drugs wouldn't do it...that leaves murder, and you know...I actually don't think that would do it. Seriously. Didn't seem to hurt OJ's popularity.
The sooner LA slides into the Ocean the better IMO...that's the final I want to see.
Very well said. Articulate and even poetic.
The rapist smack is getting old though. So I give it a 88 out of a possible 100. But you're getting close to being in my fave 5.
Although if LA slides into the Ocean, where would Ginobli, Parker and Duncan spend their off-seasons?

I'll stop using rapist smack(a little) when Laker fans stop claiming that wasn't a blatantly obvious foul or bringing up excuses for why it shouldn't have been called.
I've got no problem admitting the Spurs got more calls that game and I'd have taken the win happily.
I've got no problem saying that if the call was reversed and you guys got fucked on that call...I'd be laughing about it and saying FU!
What I would not be doing, is saying it wasn't a foul...like an idiot. And until the Lakerfans on this board stop claiming that bullshit, and dragging the board IQ down the tubes, and insulting our knowledge and intelligence of the game...the rapist smack will stay.
I feel I'm being pretty reasonable...you'll get a better quality of smack, when I get a better quality of LakerFan.

In order...Argentina, France and the Spurs training facility practicing defensive slide drills?

There was contact. It wasn't called a foul. They should not have called a foul. Semantics.
I don't think anyone is saying there was no contact - no foul. Just that it was rightfully not called.
If you disagree, tough. I'd be bitching too if it was the other way around.
And no. Mr. Eva Longoria is not allowed to leave California in the off-season.

Yeap...that's what I thought. They will probably cheer a murderer as well.

By that logic, as will Pop and Barry, apparently.

Don't know, don't give a damn.

Re: Which Team Would You Prefer for The Lakers to Play in The Finals?
If they go to the finals i want them to play boston and beat them
Re: Which Team Would You Prefer for The Lakers to Play in The Finals?
boston would struggle to put up 60 against the lakers. still, it might be fun to watch doc rivers' head explode. detroit is scarier.
Re: Which Team Would You Prefer for The Lakers to Play in The Finals?
who said the lakers are going to the finals? This series isn't over yet.
WHY NOT???
The last game hasn't been played yet.
GO SPURS GO
