1) So that we can pan out the real basketball fans from the microwave popcorn variety. So that Kobe-haters don't have fodder for the next round of ignorant and incorrect comparisons.

I wholly support identifying--and even humiliating--these microwave popcorn basketball fans. I'm just wondering how a Spurs victory will help us do so.
If you are not down with the Spurs, you are popcorn son! POPCORN!
Yeah, but won't a Spurs victory actually cause a lot of these snacksize popcorn-azz juniormint fans to pretend to be something else, i.e., Spurs fans?
The Basketball Science here is clearly going over my head.
The East was soft this year,but The EAST won last year. So that "West is stronger" is bullshit.
That is not persuasive reasoning to me.
Spurs, Dallas, Phoenix, Denver, Utah, Houston...
Why dont you just include Golden State to that group cause only the Spurs have rings. The rest of them are 50+ win teams that dont amount to anything but ticket sales.
Just because the Spurs are better than all of them (except maybe Dallas) does not mean that conference as a whole is not better than the East. I do not think that the Cavs would have made it to the finals if they had to play Dallas, Phoenix, San Antonio and maybe even Denver in the playoffs. The only championship contender that the Cavs had to beat was Detroit.
If it wasn't for the LA/SA domination of the last decade then the rest of the teams in the West could have gotten more shine.
Compare the regular season records of the West v. the East. Yeah yeah, regular season don't mean shit... but it is a good way of comparing the conferences when Eastern conference teams only have to beat one of the Western Conference teams in the playoffs instead of three.
Wait, am I really needing to argue that the Western conference is better than the East??
Because MIAMI HEAT WON LAST YEAR.
The East has fallen off considerably this past year.
Spurs are great, but the Lakers beat 'em twice in the regular. Tells you something about the Finals. Dallas taking it all woulda made the most sense.

And then lost in the first round this year to the... Bulls.
And Dallas who went to the Finals last year lost to GS. So What's your critera? The Suns have done shit either. So after the Spurs who's that much better than the EAST. Yes, the West have been better % wise but in th last 10 years has the only the Lakers & Spurs have taken the chip.The West rack up wins during the regular season and it amounts to nothing more than what the East racks up.
The West is "BETTER" but not by as much as what cats think they are.
the realness of west LA? schweetest outdoor mall this side of the rockies, brah.
Somehow living in West LA takes away from the fact that I PLAY. Ballers don't use the phrase "brah". hella ghey yo!
i was going more at west LA with the "brah". I played yesterday.
I fail to make the "I play pickup ball with trust fund babies in West L.A.: I know about professional basketball" connection, but pour some of that science over me, dunny.

'fraid not. the "crew" consists of mid-twentiesh malcontents and the 'never leave this park, always here practicing' hispanics of a local outdoor court. Good try though.
C'mon, doggie. I thirst for the knowledge rich basketball science. We all do. Quench us!

No?
he may be right. Walton =/ baller. Walton = streaky spot shooter that lives off of daddy's legacy.
yeah. that just happened.
(i guess he knows the triangle a bit, too; which is more than can be said for a lot of last years soon-to-be gone starters)
Walton = trash, but he does play on the same team as Kobe and as we've seen previously that most crucial of traits is sufficient to elevate a mediocrity like Derek Fisher over Chris Paul in the pantheon of ballers.

All Tru. And apparently, D. Williams is garbage as well, because he's hugging onto Fish's nuts.
You's a ho. And sadly will never be on my level when discussing basketball.
i never said i hated the lakers. i actually don't hate the lakers. i'm realistic about their level of play though, which is something i've learned not to expect from laker fans.
b/w
I really don't think I'll be at your level either-- i have sensitive eardrums, and thus, would never make it on a submarine. But I am not the type to go on for a season trying to pick fights with people about games when I don't have cable and can't watch the games. I think we were all collectively proud of you this year when you stepped up and got that cable subscription, doggie.
no hard feelings, young lad. it's the internet. if i met you in person, i'm sure i could hook you up by scoring some booze for you at the 7-11. I'll keep the change though.
(on purpose. i find that the youngin's posts about the lakers often border on the homoerotic, which is hilarity in these basketball threads. i like the new spelling though.)
If sports fans can talk shit on the concrete courts, I don't see why it can't happen here.

Friday, June 8, 2007 Game 1 of Cavs-Spurs draws lowest prime time rating ever[/b] Associated Press
NEW YORK -- Game 1 of the NBA Finals drew the lowest rating ever for an opening-game in prime time, dropping 19 percent from last year.
The San Antonio Spurs' 85-76 victory over the Cleveland Cavaliers on Thursday night earned a 6.3 rating and 11 share on ABC. The previous low was a 6.4/11 in 2003.
Last year's Game 1 between Miami and Dallas earned a 7.8 rating and 14 share.
The rating is the percentage watching a telecast among all homes with televisions, and the share is the percentage tuned in to a broadcast among those households with televisions on at the time. A ratings point represents 1,114,000 households.

I watched the damn thing, technically. I did fall asleep before the second quarter... Let's talk about something INTERESTING. Who's gonna have the best regular season record next year? You think the Mavs will make power moves this summer? etc.
