    I find not knowing the outcome in advance helps a lot of sports lure fans...

    If you don't want And 1, why would you want the Phoenix Suns to be in the finals? They're EXACTLY like And 1.

    One thing I want: if a guy is going to thunder down the lane, put the ball on the floor after the third or fourth step, just for variety.

    But mostly I want the college basketball season to begin.

    Now if Brandon Roy ever makes it to the finals, I just may watch a bit of that. Give it a year or two; stranger things have happened.

    No, they're not.

    The Suns play basketball. And 1 is an awful version of NBA All-Star Weekend.

    And 1: play NO defense
    Phoenix Suns: play NO defense

    And 1: have point guards continue to throw fantastic passes no fear of turning the ball over
    Phoenix Suns: has a point guard that continues to throw fantastic passes and continues to turn the ball over

    And 1: Dunks and dunks and more dunks
    Phoenix: Yes and yes and yes

    Doesn't make the Suns And 1. Makes And 1 want to be the league that emulates the Suns' uptempo style. But does it badly.

    My beer-league hockey team: Places little focus on defense

    1980's Edmonton Oilers: Places little focus on defense

    My beer-league hockey team = 1980's Edmonton Oilers

    Logic Can Be Fun!

    What are you talking about?
    And 1 has been around way longer than the Suns hb. If anything, it's the Suns that are emulating And 1.

    You don't know what you're talking about. Teams like the Suns and the Mavs and Golden State, teams that play an entertaining uptempo style, people are going to pay their hard earned money to see or they're going to watch on t.v. Judging from the t.v. ratings, no one wants to see the Spurs and Cavs take turns missing eight footers in the lane.

    There is no appeal to this series. There is nothing to draw in the casual viewer.

    seriously.....but the NBA is like And1 in some ways....like playing music during the game? WTF is that?

    But if everyone started playing that way(which will happen because more people are seeing that it's the way to go nowadays), people would start talking about the lack of defense in the game.
