It reminds of the good old days when Bird, McHale, Parrish, Johnson, Walton, Ainge, et al. tangled with Kareem, Magic, and Worthy, et al. |
Yes, those were the good old days. This year, may the best team win.

I don't know if I agree with you. Not about the outcome, but about the number of games. Think of all the advertising revenue that would be lost. Celtics in 7.
