Playoffs Again...

Wow. is there anything more satisfying than watching the historic mavs meltdown?? I can only think of two things and neither of them can I discuss without blushing. The NBA needs to reconsider their format, because there is no way that Golden State is a true 8-seed considering their late-season surge ( nor Denver a 6-seed)... The NBA should allow the #1 seed to pick their opponent among the 7 other teams, on down the line so the 4-5 matchup is whoever is left over. I can't see any real downside to this; and it could prevent a meaningless series like the potential Golden St. v. Houston in the semifinals...

Also, from the random playoff notes, I have to say that I've lost most of the repsect I had for Dirk; he must discover his testicles or he can spend the offseason searching for them (hint: look in Nelson's blender). I am a Golden St. convert; before this series I dind't know the name of their arena, or any player on their team, but they play ridiculously fun basketball. Baron Davis = D Wade.

Also, I don't ever watch TNT except during playoffs, and I have to say that if I see one more nonsensical promo spot for "Amazing Grace" I am going to kick a puppy. The promos don't make any sense or explain anything about the show other than there is some chick who looks like Janis Joplin and she has drunken sex, and then she somehow becomes an angel or some shit. I guess I don't watch enough TV to know if this is considered a good premise.
