I guess they call it Home Court Advantage

But seriously… what? How does a team in the NBA Finals of all places win 2 games by an average of, what was it, 17 points?, and then lost the next two by an average of 24 points? I guess if anyone can do it, it’s the Spurs (see: last year against the Lakers).

I’m just hoping that it’s another blowout on Sunday so I can get to bed early like I did last night. I’m not Off the Bandwagon, I’m just tired cause I’ve been waking up early to try to get “fun work” done outside of “real work.” [That obviously does not include blogging... ] But Mr. True Hoop has a point. The Spurs Bloggers sound like My Mom. [I'll spare you my bloggerated impression of my mom watching the Blazers back in the day] If those were My Bulls in the Finals, there is no way I’d turn the TV off. I don’t care how much they’re down by.

(Time for a new paragraph, I think) There are 30 teams in the league and only 2 get to the Finals. If your team is one of those 2, you owe it to them to watch every second of every game, even if it means searing your eyes with 18 turnovers and a 31 point loss. My only theory is that Spurs fans have been so spoiled of late with 2 championships and perennial playoff appearances that they’ve come to take these things for granted. Or maybe they just don’t really like basketball all that much. If that’s the case… stick to fantasy basketball…

You know you’re getting good at The Webs Programming when it’s easier to type out: <a href=” and hit Ctrl+V followed up with a “> and the name of the link than it is to move the mouse up to the Link Button in WordPress.

Vitriolic. I just felt like saying that.
