That's why I kept saying it was important for the Cavs to reach the Finals because if not it would have been no one to root against LOL

That's happened before..Detroit versus spurs. League just made some new rules to get excitement back up.. Kickstarted wade nash and Bron along with many other average all star level perimeter players.. sprung durant with a lot of superstar treatment along with harden after kobe bron rivalry ran out.. they'll always have someone new to anoint and a story to push.

I'm saying it was two "team ball" teams playing.. although GS and hawks are even more exciting than that since they can at least go on offensive sprees.

And then you have those who want the possibility of a Memphis vs. Spurs Finals because "the top 16 teams should be in the playoffs!!!!!!"
I'm sure that would draw greaaaaaaat ratings :rolleyes:

Memphis would never make the finals in that format. it'd be something like spurs-cavs, okc-GS and then some combo of the winner which would be amazing either way and make for better conference finals.

My stomach. My stomach.
You can't be serious.
Check the value of teams from 84 then when stern left.
Are you on acid ?
Players salaries.
Soccer?
Wtf is that?
This America. Tnt and abc/ESPN don't give a fucc bout soccer. Americans don't give a fucc bout soccer.
RATINGS WERE HIGH BECAUSE EVERYONE WAS WATCHING TO SEE IF BRON COULD WIN A RING IN HIS HOMETOWN.
Shit for brains.
You REALLY think the casual fan woulda tuned in to see the great team ball of the hawks vs warriors?
Swear. You people need to take your meds.[/QUOTE]
Lol. Because soccer in america isnt as good in europe. You dont know business bro if you think star driven league is good for nba. Soccer earns the highest in the world and nfl in US yet somehow a genius like you thinks sterns way is better. And Finals ratings before stern is better than before he retired.lol and ratings dipped once stern tried to create another jordan aka what you wanted, "superstars league". So stfu bro. Youre dumb
Re: The Future Of The Nba After TV Mega Deal Has Expired Looks Real Real Bad
Messi made $71 Million last year. Soccer players make grown man money. You can't discredit that just because the game isn't as popular here, those guys get [B]PAID[/B]

2 West teams...just like 2 East teams, in the Finals, would be horrible for ratings......that's what I was getting at.
