I didn't watch either game last night, but I was really hoping the suns would win and after watching highlights I see they almost pulled it off. Hopefully they can go on the road and get the series tied up again.

As for the Cavs I don't know what happened to them. I personally hope that the nets win the series.

The Cavs couldn't hit the broad side of a barn last night. And New Jersey was shooting around 60% from both the field and the 3pt line until the beginning of the 4th. Then NJ went cold, shooting like 1 of 15 and only hitting a few of their FTs, but Cleveland was equally as miserable. I mean, seriously, if you can't close the series out at home, you have got to think that they are going to struggle again at NJ in game 6 and come back to Cleveland for a game 7.

As for the Suns-Spurs, I am pretty sure they have gained a helluva lot more fans due to the indicents that have been taking place in that series. Here's hoping they pull it out.

I stayed up until halftime. Suns up 38-24 and then blow it. Barbosa and Marion had something like 28 first point half points and only 10 in the second half.

I lifted the boycott and watched the 2nd half. They ran out of gas. Period.

It may carry over to game 6 and I fully expect the Spurs to close them out in SA.

I haven't watched either of the first 2 games, but from what I see on ESPN it looks like the Spurs will probably sweep the series.

Its pretty sad that the spurs didn't even sell out the games at home. Its the conference finals and they have empty seats. I guess even people that live in San Antonio don't even want to watch after what happened in the last series.

Looks like the spurs will be well rested for whoever they play.

I know, I just thought it was kind of funny video. It really is hurting the game much like soccer has been hurt from the flopping.

Nice article about how LeBron and the Cavs MUST make the NBA Finals for the NBA to not lose more fans than it has already lost over the past several years.

the NBA got what they needed....a stud in the playoffs that people want to watch, but is it enough to get people really interested?? seems as if more and more people quit watching the NBA, but here locally it had picked up since LeBron went to the league

San Antonio didn't even sell out some of their home games in the conference finals. That says how much people are starting to not like the league.
