    celts lakers were good. great Rivalry. both series were good. but then kendrick perkins got injured... and then refs bailed the lakers out with every call in 4Q of game 7.

    nope too much ref intervention. I expect Miami to start getting a lot of calls that weren't normally given to them in Dallas.

    Yes

    If there is a game 7 it will go down as greatest series ever

    Lots of other factors make this so big

    not only the best nba ,but the best team sports matchup in a long time, it has the feel of sugar ray and marvin hagler, atleast for me it does, haven't been into an event for long time

    I'd rather just go ahead & see Dirk take out the 3 stooges right now rather than sweating out a game 7

    This has been the best finals in recent memory. Average margin of victory is five which is insane. Looking forward to game 6 tonight.

    I find the NBA boring for the most part and game #1 was status quo for me but the other games have been great .. especially game 5.

    Spurs-Pistons was an even series that went down to the last minute of game 7. Wasn't as pleasing to the eye offensively, but competitive from game to game. But yes, this is best series of any sport in a long time.

    This series has been great so far. I think to rank as one of or the all time best, an epic game 7 is a must. Can't rank it in the top 5 after just 5 games.

    when you add the drama of lebron vs. the world, the decision, the cough, 4th quarter, espn....there has never been this much drama in an nba finals. you get a reality show and a basketball series at the same time. the hours waiting on the game to start are tortuous and then i gotta watch every morning to see what skip bayless has to say. he is a self-promotional genius.....

    First rule in road-side beet sales, put the most attractive beets on top. The ones that make you pull the car over and go, 'Wow. I need this beet right now.' Those are the money beets.


    I grew up on a farm. I have seen animals having sex in every position imaginable. Goat on chicken. Chicken on goat. Couple of chickens doing a goat, couple of pigs watching.
