lmao, gawd i love that tnt crew.

 

[Pugz]

lol at Reggie, "haha, what is wrong with you?!" His face was sooo funny.

 

[The Young One]

I feel like I have been waiting a eternity for this game.

 

[cruzg24]

Its because this series is going to be soo good. Nba tv ratings are up btw by 30%.

 

[elcheato]

Stern is dragging out the finals way too long, but that's what you get when he is going to make a ton of money off marketing.

 

[MapleLeaf]

we'll get to see what it's like when two teams are rusty at the same time

 

[The Young One]

I seriously hate david stern so much its not funny.

 

[MapleLeaf]

idk, i dont think any commish is actually well liked.

At least it's not like baseball with Bud Selig who makes the ASG end in a tie lmao

 

[elcheato]

I like Roger Goodell, he is decent.

 

[Deeillini]

This series IMO is going to come down to defense, you saw that the lakers played poorly against a strong defensive team in the rockets, as long as orlando can limit the outside shots they have a great chance

 

[The Young One]

Thats the problem and you know it dee. They live by the 3.

 

[Deeillini]

Amen

 

[MapleLeaf]

I like Roger Goodell, he is decent.

well he's the newest, but he's already had some things, he's suspended and fined so much more then any of the past commishes

 

[cruzg24]

well he's the newest, but he's already had some things, he's suspended and fined so much more then any of the past commishes

And for good reason...

 

[Lake Louise]

Still have about two days.

 

[MapleLeaf]

And for good reason...

He's ruled and fined a lot of people way more then the previous commish. The off the field issues I see but he was extremely hard and I think over the top with on the field issues. There is a reason they call it the No Fun league.

BTW- This wait is embarrassing IMO. It was fine the first couple of days but why did they want a week of just coverage? It's not 1 game like the Super Bowl, it's 7 games, it's terrible. I mean even ESPN is getting bored I bet. We're learning about DH12's upbringing and LAmar's liking for snacks?

 

[Mexi]

1 more day Maple

it has been wack. lol Lamar's candy? who the hell cares?

 

[V23]

Shaq is rooting for LA, not surprising. But yeah, Stern is making the wait too long. We should have a taller commissioner, he looks awkward as hell at the Draft.

 

[MapleLeaf]

image this being the song dj mbenga listens to everyday before the game

 

[MapleLeaf]

Could this PA Announcer be any less exciting doing these lineups?
