'07-'08 NBA Playoffs

[Araxen]

I hope it's the Spurs/Pistons Finals just to see how low the ratings will go this time around.

[Slick Willey]

Go Spurs!

Just to spite all you haters!

Seriously, LA fans are an obnoxious bunch, moreso than Spurs fans by far. Plus, I hate Phil "Mr. I only coach loaded teams that a monkey could could coach and win games" Jackson. I hope the Spurs take them and Kobe Bryant starts crying for a trade or more help.

I feel sick today after that lost.

I can not believe how lame the NO fans were at that game, I guess we will always be a football town with a Shitty football team.

At least we have LSU /le sigh

the mavs commentators are especially terrible.

if the trio is broken up though because mark jackson becomes coach somewhere, i'd be pretty dissapointed. i'd like to see them all go be the coaching staff for a team somewhere but i'm not sure how qualified breen would be for that and i know jvg wanted to wait at least another year.

The local celtics announcers are 900x better than the retarded ones I've had to listen to on national TV lately. You don't need 3 announcers (hate when the NFL does this on MNF too) and they need to stop talking about completely random shit no one cares about when important things are happening in the game. I don't know names -- the ones on TNT have been tolerable but the ABC ones were completely horrendous.

They need charles barkley commentating during the finals, would be hilarious

[Twobit Whore]

Chuck is the single best thing about the NBA on TV. I don't see how anyone could dislike him.

[Araxen]

Chuck is the best. They had him on for MNF once last season and man that was the best quarter of football commentating wise I've heard in a very long time.

Becuase when Phil came back to the Lakers for his 2nd stint that team was loaded with Smush Parker and Kwame Brown.

Don't forget Slava Medivenko and Mark Madsen.

Barkley does own.

My biggest issue with the playoffs this year, above and beyond the expected shitty announcers, have been camera angles and replays. So many tough calls go without a replay (NBA's meddling), good plays that go unnoticed by the announcers and the replay booth, etc.

Often when they do show a replay, the shitty camera angles miss the key parts, like feet near/on the lines. It's been a frustrating season.

yeah I forget the play but there was some foul in the last series where a few seconds later you hear the crowd freak out and start boo'ing and one of the announcers is like "Sounds like the crowd just saw the replay on the big screen"

Did we actually see it replayed on TV? No of course not. Wtf?

Do you mean the foul that was committed by Manu after the clock hit 0.0 and the half was over, therefore creating no foul?

If you're talking about that one, I think they replayed it about 50 times.

nah it was an east game.
