No Need To Adjust Your Monitors

April 29th, 2004 by | @KnickerBlogger | Comments | Permalink |

Sorry folks, but I’ve been busy as all hell with personal stuff. I have two friends leaving the state, a friend making a trip to the hospital, a wedding and a birthday party all this week. I’ll try to get some stuff finished, but it seems like I might get something out tomorrow, and maybe nothing until Monday.

Thank goodness the NBA has given everyone some days off with what they call the first round of the playoffs. I mean seriously, the only underdog that might win their series is the Hornets who are tied 2-2 in their series so far. 4 teams have already moved on to the next round, and 3 others are up 3-1. Is it me, or does this smack of the greatest scam of all time? How many millions is the NBA making from having about 40 extra games played with packed arenas and almost prime time television? All for what? The 5% chance that a 6th, 7th, or 8th seed might upset a better team, just to most be crushed in the next round anyway? Off the top of my head I can’t think of a team past seed #5 that went two rounds other than the strike season Knicks. So can anyone tell me what’s the point of the first round?
