The Finals
We all know why the SuperBowl is so big.
Thats because its one game and its on a Sunday.
Should David Stern do the same thing the NFL does?
One game in a randomly picked location for the Finals?
But keep the rest of the playoffs at 7 games.
The NBA would get much better ratings.

no it wouldnt...
The supebowl is big because there is only 1 game involved, and as the saying goes " on any given sunday"
at least with a 5 or 7 game format the truely better team comes out ahead 95% of the time...
and the NFL is ref'd better...at leat I thought so until I saw this game...

Re: The Finals
No, regular season would be rendered meaningless if you still the best record's homecourt advantage.

Re: The Finals
scheming and changing between games of series is what make basketball series so fun
