A Kings / Nets NBA Finals?

[DevilsAdvocate]

I think that this would be a compelling series... but a ratings nightmare - not that I really give a rat's ass.

I am pulling for noth of them - new blood is desparately needed among the NBA l337

would rock, it would be great for the NBA because they need some new faces to attract new fans

Bah, I want the Kings-Lakers series to go to Game 7, and from there it's anyone's game...

actually it'd be bad for the nba...two small markets like sacramento and the meadowlands NJ = no ratings for NBA and NBC, noone would watch. despite the lakers being dominant the past few years, viewership is way up, have you checked how many crazy laker fans/haters are on this board? he he. as soon as sac and NJ win, tv's are turning off.

lakers-celtics would be much more compelling and draw more viewers, maybe even get back some old 80s fans. but it'd be tough for that series to materialize now though.

you know who stern's rooting for.

id rather the clippers be the nba champs then the nets

 

[spanky]

the clippers are gonna get dismantled in free agency. seems like just when they got a nice core of young players, they all wanna leave town. hehe... poor clips...

If it ends up being Lakers vs Celtics, all I can say is the fix is in. Neither team at this point is worthy of being in this years NBA finals.

Yeah, this was what I was thinking... but YAWN!!
