OPEN THREAD: 2008 NBA Finals Game 1
Both of these franchises are responsible for the league's renaisance in the 80's. Both of the teams are star-studded. Both of these teams are the benefactors of some questionable trades. Both of teams are making Commissioner David Stern very, very happy. Both of the teams are 100x better than the 2007-2008 Golden State Warriors. Both of the teams are about to put on one hell of a show.
We're going NES on it!
Jump like you're trying to do the impossible- block a Kareem sky hook!

I've been meaning to ask
Why are the FInals in a 2-3-2 format, but all other series are 2-2-1-1-1?

its
like that mostly for travel reasons. though its not that big of a deal anymore. but b4 going east to west was a pain in the ass especially when its 1 1 1 you have to go cross country for one game.

also
it’s not just the travel for the players, all the media have to travel as well.
I think it should be 2-2-1-1-1, better for basketball. If the players need more rest, give them an extra day between games 4 and 5 and game 6 and 7.
