                                ...How much more NBA playoffs basketball will you watch? I probably won't watch another minute. I can't stand the Lakers, Magic, Spurs or Celtics. To be honest, I'll probably avoid NBA off-season coverage like I avoid cancer. I'll turn the TV back on in July to see what Lebron does, then turn it back off again.

But seriously, we lost 1 game, the sky is not falling.

                        It's not a 'the sky is falling question'...I'd ask this if they were up 2-0. I'm just curious to see how interested everyone is outside of the Cavs.sleeper wrote: I will watch, but I will not be happy.

                                every game. Even if the match-ups aren't compelling I would rather watch every second of playoff basketball before I started paying attention to baseball or hockey which are the only things going at the moment.

                                with the way the NBA schedules the playoffs, it feels like they are already done. heck the magic went through a mini off season waiting for their series to start. havent had that much time off since last summer.

But I really just want Cavs v. Lakers. Seriously, I'd clearly be pullin' HARD for the Cavs and I'd certainly pick them to win but once that matchup is set it's all gravy. It'd be so epic. Got game 3 on Friday first.

                                I wouldn't watch anymore play-offs.  I support my teams, but beyond that I really don't care for the rest of the league.

                                I would watch if I didn't have anything else to do, but I wouldn't plan around it like I do for Cavs games.  I tend to get burnt out on basketball and baseball, especially when my teams aren't doing well.

                                I would still watch it, but it can be hard to get into series if your team isn't playing that take 3 weeks to complete. At this point in the playoffs, it is crazy to have 4 days between games. You could easily have a doubleheader tonight and tomorrow instead of only having 1 game each night.

                                I feel like I've been watching some of these teams for way too long. I would rather get kicked in the balls then watch a Spurs game. I've been watching this exact same team compete for like the past ten years. Can Rasheed Wallace and Chancy Billups rejoin the Pistons and have them play the Celtics? That'd complete everything.

                                Cavs aren't getting out of the East. If the Celtics don't get 'em, they're getting clipped by the Magic.
I keep saying this, and nobody is listening to me.

                        What happens if they do make it through? Get clipped by the Lakers?Sage wrote: Cavs aren't getting out of the East. If the Celtics don't get 'em, they're getting clipped by the Magic.

You're basically just picking against them against whoever and hoping you're right so you can say I told you so! Rather than actually forming a decent argument.
Never in my life have I seen such an overreaction over one game--a game that ranks in the top 5 worst the Cavs have played all season. And I'm sorry, but watching the game I can't help but notice that we're more the culprit of our shitty play than Boston. If you don't expect to see them turn it around then you know something that no one else does. Not saying to win the series, just play better. And if they play better, play like the Cavs have all year, the winning will take care of itself.

                                I would like my Lakers' chances against the Cavaliers in the Finals. Especially if the Q keeps on being a morgue.
I think the Cavaliers will beat the Celtics, but there is no chance they're getting past the Magic.
Jameer Nelson will have his way with the Cavs, they have multiple guys to throw at LeBron, they have two 7 footers to clog the lane with, and when they're shooting the 3 pointers well, it's a wrap.

                                I think the Cavs match up better with the Lakers than they do the Celtics or Magic.  Both teams have shitty point guard play.
