Stern's glueguys or current NBA officials?

The referees in each series would be Bob Stoops and Steve Mariucci

They bragged when they beat the Spurs in '09, when Duncan was playing on what he termed "half a leg" and Ginobili wasn't playing at all. They've constantly been arrogant for years, despite the fact that they're a joke franchise. And now because their one dimensional, career choke artist for a best player is down a few days, we're supposed to feel sorry for them? Boo-hoo, they're having to deal with a couple of injuries. Try dealing with a couple of seasons worth.

Why would anyone feel sorry for them? Serves those arrogant, ignorant pricks right.

2004 Pistons--My favorite team winning as 7-1 underdogs against the hated Shaq/Kobe Lakers. It was a perfect storm for me.

2008 Celtics--KG and Paul Pierce were two of my favorite players before they played on the same team. I was convinced that the two would never climb the mountain and I would never see a compe ive team in Boston. This was sweet, even if they had to beat the Pistons on the way to it.

2005 Spurs--They had great performances from everyone in the rotation, it was a classic series, the last season that NBA defense was allowed. More than that, the Spurs earned my respect and it's part of why I am a member of this board.

2009 Lakers--My venom for the Lakers had subsided. They were my second-favorite team growing up and it was sweet to see Kobe play that way, transform his game, in perhaps the best year I have ever seen from the Lakers.

2007 Spurs--Tony Parker was masterful. The Spurs won with a team concept and were dominant for most of the postseason. It was good to see the Cavs get trounced and I think that most of the country missed good basketball from the Spurs because of their reputation.

2011 Mavericks--Dirk was masterful and Lebron was exposed. I saw very little of the series, but I like the result.

2003 Spurs--These Spurs were tough and clutch. I hated the fact the Pistons weren't there and I am glad that the Nets were defeated.

2010 Lakers--I really wanted Boston to win. Sasha Vujacic with 2 rings or KG? It was a little bitersweet. Kobe looked old, and it wasn't a good series.

2006 Heat--I wanted the Mavs. I hated watching the criticism of Dirk, the collapse, the officiating (the first with the new interpretation of contact and impeding progress to the rim), thinking the NBA was fixed, the broken playoff bracket, watching Steve Nash win MVP. Have I mentioned I hated the 2005-06 season?

2002 Lakers--Hate these Lakers. Feuds, no balance around O'Neal, bunch of shooters around Kobe, and no ball-movement. Boo. Bad Basketball.

Darrin?
