All I can say is that this Finals is bad for the game. Anyone who thinks they're watching good basketball this year must have missed the last 4 Finals.

These finals aren't about the style of play but rather the story. Stories have a much larger appeal to the general populous than style of play.

Like I said, anyone who thinks they're watching good basketball... You want storylines, read a book (I don't mean you specifically, fans of the teams playing are expected to be into it).

The Cavs whole game plan is to muk up the games. So what's your point?

That I hate the fact that this is the crap we're being subjected to in the Finals. I thought that was pretty clear.

I think it's brilliant! An underdog beating a much better team by turning the games ugly.

So this shows everyone is watching because of the stories and not the game?

and NBA fans.

GS's 67 win season
CLE's playing through huge setbacks
Rookie coaches squaring head to head

In terms of story, this finals is pretty good. I think viewership is doing extremely well, btw, so people do care about something.

You might want to ask yourself why the viewership for NBA games is getting younger and younger. I am sure it is because the quality of the game.  ::)

Anyway I can't wait to see what the line on the series is now.  :)

You can't have it both ways.  If the play is so unwatchable then people must be watching for the storylines.

What both ways? Where did I say the play was unwatchable? I watched a ton of hockey playoff games this season that were just plain sloppy. I watch because I am a fan.
