I was completely wrong... I figured the Cavs would at least put up a fight and this would be entertaining, even if they were swept. *sigh* guess Suns vs Spurs WAS the finals... too bad it was tainted by Draconian Law

Yeah that was probably one of the better series, saw an article on ESPN talking about switching up the format of the playoffs that way it isn't necessarily EAST vs WEST at the end but the actual two best teams competing for the championship. I honestly thought Lebron and the Cavs would have been better than this, yes I think we'll be seeing a sweep coming up.......

that would be a good idea, it'll improve ratings. don't think the east coast fans would like the idea at this point in time

SPURS ARE THE CHAMPS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

HELL YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Title #4 for the Spurs, puts them in very select company.
Cavs gave what they had, but they're still a young and inexperienced team, who can at least draw some good experience from their season and playoff run.

congratulations.

Although they got swept in the finals... the Cavs should be extremely proud of their accomplishments and how far they've gotten in this season.

Grats to the Spurs who won their 4th NBA title in 9 years... fuckin DYNASTY!!

And Robert Horry.... 7 rings.... wow.

Grats to the Spurs on the championship and kudos to the Lebron and the Cavs for being classy and not making excuses but admitting defeat to a much better team. His time should come hopefully, they definitely need to get him some help to get to that next level though.

Most boring series EVER!

Gratz to the Spurs...

I liked the idea of changing the playoffs. Right now it seems all the competition is happening in the west.

Anyone else heard about that meeting Kobe had with Jerry Buss in Barcelona?
It was reported that Kobe has once again told Jerry Buss that he wants to be traded.
Gonna have to wait and see if anything happens from this, although IF it does, nothing can be done until July, when teams can start talking with free agents and setting up trades.

Kobe to the Spurs!

KG a laker?

lotta rumors flying around right now

RatBastich · « **Reply #1736 on:** June 25, 2007, 10:09:15 PM »

^I was just reading that at ESPN.com.
Would have to be a 4 team deal to make it work.

KG to the Lakers, Odom and Bynum to the Pacers, J. O'Neal to the Celtics, the T'Wolves getting young palyers and a lottery pick.

Definitely interesting.

Yeah looks like that possible deal fell through with Boston not liking their end of the deal. It was reported that the Lakers and Wolves tried getting just a deal worked out between the two of them most likely with the Lakers trading Lamar Odom, Andrew Bynum, and their first round pick but Kevin Mchale won't feeling it. Let's hope they work something out, I'd love to see KG get a championship and with the two of them together in LA still in their prime, shiiiat can we say a real dynasty in the making??

Draft coming up on Thursday.
Who's gonna be watching?

RatBastich · « **Reply #1739 on:** June 28, 2007, 02:23:46 AM »

Draft tomorrow night.
Top 2 picks are pretty much decided.
Gonna be a lot of wheeling and dealing going on, also, with trades happening.
Then after draft day, teams will still still be looking to make deals thru free agents.
