Pacers and Thunder weren't going down in the first round. Not that easy. Typical NBA 7 game series rigjob. It wouldn't be the NBA if it wasn't dramatic. I mean come on, they even play on TNT. Doesn't or didn't their slogan go along the lines of "We know drama"? NBA is rigged.

1 of those two series will end up being an upset. I'm calling Indiana for the loss, and OKC for the win

7 games = more money for the NBA.

Are you just now learning this?

How any Miami fan can watch basketball and not think the NBA is rigged is beyond me. Lebron is the biggest leg up superstar ever.

Miami games don't go 7 series because nobody even goes to their games.

They even have to discount playoff games compared to other teams to get up attendance.

Indiana is a shadow of themselves though. Even if they do win, they'll probably get smashed by Miami. Might as well be playing the Hawks.

The Grizz are a bad matchup though, I do agree.

I just find it interesting that all three games tonight are going to 7 games.


Clippers are looking like they may lose this one.

They may artificially lengthen series somewhat, but they don't straight up fix. Otherwise the Spurs never would have won any championship... nor the Pistons... The simple fact is that the NBA rarely gets the outcome that's best for the ratings. What actually happens is more consistent with no intervention than active intervention.

Not going to Lie,

A few of the ending plays in the Pacers/Hawks game just seemed fake...
