Marsh, I have to be honest, you're missing out by not watching these playoffs. It really is basketball played at its highest level.

Its baseball and golf season. Hoops are over. The fact that they drag this on till June is pathetic.
High level or no high level I just cant watch it. Its like watching a video of your ex wife and a guy she left you for screwing. F the NBA

Oxymoron: loving the game of basketball but hating the game of basketball played at the highest level.
NBA and NHL playoffs have both been played at really high levels. The only mismatch series in the first round of either series has been the Charlotte-Miami NBA series. The rest have all been fun and close to watch.
Kaminsky thinks getting paid is boring okay. If he was a solid 1st round pick in the lottery I doubt it would appear boring. However, when your a fringe NBA player I am sure the sport can look boring. Kaminsky will be lucky if goes in the first round next year, but he will be a stud college player.

I like this quote better:
"I haven't won enough in college to call it a career. Yea, we made it to the final four, but that doesn't mean we won something. It's a great accomplishment and few get to achieve it, but it isn't winning it all."
This kid gets it.

100% serious. there is a reason it is one of the lowest rated sports to watch in the world. Very very boring stuff.

have you watched this post season? i'll admit the regular season is a drag, but the playoffs are the best basketball you will ever see. just look at the OKC-Memphis series, or the Hou-Portland. All the series have been great and it's only the 1st round. I like the college game because I have a rooting interest, and the atmosphere kicks it up a notch, but there is no arguing the NBA game isn't even in the same stratosphere as college.

It's also amazing watching guys play basketball. The ball is rebounded or inbounded and the offense immediately gets organized and starts running a set. At first I was confused, because I couldn't understand why they weren't standing around or passing the ball to each other around the perimeter to work the clock, and then I was like "WAITAMINUTE..."

If Jefferson doesn't get hurt in the first game they might have won a game or two, but I agree - most all are fairly even. First time that can be said for a first round in the NBA in a long time.

For everyone but the Bulls. Outside of Dunleavy going off in that one game, their offense was absolutely brutal. Hopefully, a certain soon-to-be free agent will fix that.

Do you also wish that more software engineering students go to graduate school instead of take jobs with technology start ups?

LOL gold
I don't care about software engineering students. It is refreshing to see a kid who realizes that the nba will always be an option, and embrace college basketball.
