The Spurs have to be the least revered great team in sports.

 

Yesterday, maybe. Let's see how that shakes out today and moving forward.

 

I'm definitely classifying them differently now. I'm just a casual fan and I don't call in to radio shows, though :).

 

I STILL hear people say "man I hate seeing the Spurs win, they are so boring". Funny because they are actually one of the more enjoyable teams to watch in the league these days.

 

They really are. I hate watching NBA games because they tend to be so plodding and one on one, but the way the Spurs move the ball and their offense flows makes them very enjoyable to watch.

My guess is that casual fans don't understand any of that and simply want to see the show time stuff.

 

I'm going to try harder. Watching the Spurs this time was a lot of fun. And selfishly I kind of feel like the Bulls will need to follow this sort of model for awhile, and I'd obviously like it to work out.

 

Maybe, maybe not. I think it just shows that the Big 3 model is one of multiple ways to win a title. In the last 4 years of the Big 3 in Miami, they won 2 titles. The other 2 titles were won by teams with 1 or less superstars. Meanwhile, everyone has spent the last 4 years trying to build their own big 3's to replicate the Celtics and Heat and have fallen short.

Because right now everyone luuurves him?

 

At the same time, more fans chose LeBron as their favorite player than any other in the league. He's popular, even if he isn't quite as popular as the young prodigy who played for the Cavs.

 

It was fun to root against him for awhile, but I really wanted to see him get a ring this year.

 

If not a Heat fan, why would anyone want to see the same ground tread upon over & over again? I don't understand it.

Oh my God, the irony.

Because I like LeBron James and want to see him dominate the league.
