http://www.statenews.com When it comes to the NBA this postseason, all bets are off — at least they are for me. en-us Foundry4 Sat, 22 Nov 2008 06:17:46 -0500 Thu, 15 May 2008 10:19:53 -0400 webmaster@statenews.com http://www.statenews.com/index.php/comment/16996/view For as little attention as I pay to the NBA, this postseason has been interesting. I haven’t watched a complete NBA game in three years but I could’ve told you the Pistons would make the Eastern Conference Finals… again. That part is predictable.

Home teams are now 19-1 in the second round. How is that not predictable. Furthermore, Mike D’Antoni was not fired from the suns. They permitted him to speak with other teams. “Anything can happen, so don’t be surprised to catch the Hornets in the Finals”. Couldn’t we predict that the team with the fourth best record in the league could make the finals? Especially a team having that record in the much tougher West. Do you even watch basketball?

The higher seeded team has won every series to date and it looks as if that will continue.

A bunch of lazy guys who start playing with 3 minutes left in the game.

The Hornets have the better record and are the better seed: Why wouldn’t they have taken out a lackluster Dallas team and gone toe-to-toe with the Spurs? And all those 50-win teams from the West? They won those in the regular season, not the postseason—how is that even relevant to your post?

That is unpredictable. It almost seems like it happens every year. This column grind my gears… Thu, 15 May 2008 10:19:53 -0400 http://www.statenews.com/index.php/comment/17016/view
