Does anyone hear think that the playoffs are scripted? I mean i could have easily guessed it would have been these two teams in the finals. both teams have superstars and both teams have a large fan base, mainly bandwagon fans. anyways the lakers better win it.

Yeah, it's scripted. The two teams that finished the regular season with the best records in their conference and enjoyed home court throughout the playoffs are now in the NBA Finals. It's rigged, I tell ya.

 

My argument is that in the past years the NBA has struggled to keep their viewers interested in the playoffs. So why not have the two teams with the biggest fan bases meet in the finals. Do you really believe that if the finals were set between the "old and boring" Spurs and the Pistons that anybody would even tune in? I am a laker fan but i never predicted their series with the spurs to end so quickly. The series will probably go 7 games just for the "drama that is the NBA playoffs". I'm actually arguing on the same side as Skip Bayless, who does that?
