NBA first round series, better when it was best of 5?
    #14322527 - 04/20/11 11:17 AM (12 years, 9 months ago)

Now that the NBA has for awhile hae a seven game series in the first round does it make you lose interest?  It's great that the Spurs and Lakers got upset in the first game but is it meaningless with a expanded series? 

Watching the playoffs I'm not even interested until the sixth game and the lower seeds that used to have a chance, like in baseball, for an upset in the first round seems impossible now.  I hate how the NBA has gone for the two month playoff series, it drags on for fucking ever.

Not all all. I want more basketball!

Ratings are way up for the NBA. Like up 40% on TNT I read.

Wow, 59 views and the first response.  I would love to see New Orleans beat the Lakers but I think they would have a better chance in a best of five.  If the next game was the winner would advance, I would like New Orleans chances a lot more than a seven game series.

But the Spurs, the Grizz are kicking their ass.

It should be like the NCAA tourney, one and done.  That way the whole tedious bullshit would be over by now.

I like the Best-of-Seven.

I'm enjoying these playoffs more than I have any in the recent past.

Hoping the Bulls pull it out tonight...

Number one seed shouldn't have things easier for them. In the post-season every team should gear up to get ready to win four times EACH series.

I like the system. More games. Teams like Memphis and Oklahoma City are dominating

Not to mention the Magic are now playing from behind even after last nights win.

This series is amazing.  I can't believe how the Spurs won the last game but it was one of the most entertaining games, until OT, that I have watched.  Still hope for an OKC-Memphis matchup.  And I'd take OKC in the series but much time to be played.

I bet the spurs win this game and the series, but yes, it's been very good basketball.  Espcially watching Ginobli's performances.

Randolph, ftw, I was wrong.

Allright, most people here want it.  So does the NBA.  Would be interesting to see an ESPN poll on it but I would probably still be in the minority.  Best of luck Dallas against the Lakers in their series.
