This topic is locked from further discussion.
You don't know me. Don't speak from ignorance. I explained why I didn't like Pistons vs Spurs in a later comment.[QUOTE="No_Hablo_Ingles"][QUOTE="Diablo-B"] I see you dont like the spurs. That Spurs, Pistons series was great. The Spurs Nets had the lowest tv ratings ever so maybe your right there. I personally did not like the spurs cavs series.KingOfOldSkool

Chill out, ace. Reaching the conclusion that you may not be a fan of a team you list *three* different times as being a part of the "undebatable" worst finals ever is not speaking from ignorance, its speaking from having eyesight and basic reading skills.
I am chill, however, making an assumption based on a single post is most definitely speaking from ignorance, especially since I stated why I disliked the Pistons v Spurs series. He didn't reach the conclusion that I wasn't a fan of the Spurs. He reached the conclusion that I dislike the Spurs, which is not the same thing. Best/Worse Finals is an opinion, and it is "undebatable"Uh huh..apparently where you come from explaining why you didn't like one series also covers why you felt compelled to mention the other two seriesKingOfOldSkool
Because the other two series weren't brought into question :roll:. Reading is good, comprehending what you are reading is better.
getting pissy about someone making a pretty obvious conclusion based off your axe grinding as if he launched a personal investigation into you is being "chill".KingOfOldSkool
Yeah, I'm getting pissy because you figured me out. I'm a secert Spurs hater, which is a completely obvious conclusion to reach because I have the opinon that the Spurs have the 3 most boring series to watch this decade.
Whatever, couldn't care less. I'll leave you and your "undebatable" opinions on a subjective discussion be.KingOfOldSkool
It is because it is subjective that it is not debatable in my mind.

To be fair, your OP is a little ambiguous in that regard.You made it seem as though it was common knowledge that those series were the worst, which is fine but I think you said it in a "matter-of-factly" kind of way like it was an undeniable truth. I thought Spurs/Nets was OK, not great, but I can understand why one would consider that series being bad as common knowledge. The same can be said about Spurs/Cavs, which I think pretty much everyone hated, including Spurs fans. To rope Spurs/Pistons though into that mix is a bit of a stretch because MOST people didn't feel the same way about it. So it doesn't really fit contextually. You didn't do a great job in indicating that it was simply based on your own perception. I mean, you did, but I can see why someone would misinterpret that you were speaking more generally.
The other thing is, all 3 series' were distinct. The only real constant is that the Spurs played in all over those series and the Spurs won all of those series. So wouldn't it make sense for someone to connect the dots there and believe you hate the Spurs? Even if that's not the case, I think that's a reasonable assumption to make.
Spurs vs Cavs would be first. I also didn't like the Lakers vs Magic, in 09 I think it was... The playoffs that year were great, but didn't enjoy the finals.
Worse one for me to watch? Lakers Pistons a few years ago ('05?). Worse one over all? Nets vs. Spurs was awful.
As a Spurs fan... I am not complaining about those Finals since we won them all. But the Pistons battle was not terrible in anyway, it was an awesome series. The Cavs one was lackluster since Lebron couldn't carry a team on his own and with the Spurs D he was basically kept in check.
I have no idea how people would find the Spurs boring. I'm always entertained, win or lose, when seeing their playoff runs. People(not here)say Spurs play dirty, Duncan is too boring a star, Ginobili is a flopper(I'll admit I've seen a few flops), But not boring to me, butmaybe I'm just a fan.
I don't think any NBA Finals series that makes it to say 7 games can be considered boring, especially when most of you probably watched Game 7, cause regardless of what's going on, it's Game 7 of the NBA Finals, that's amazing, that rarely happens. So I can't go with Spurs/Pistons but Spurs/Nets I don't even remember so I'm going to have to go with that matchup. My second would be Spurs/Cavs or Lakers/Magic. I am a Lakers fan but that series was just ehh. Even after winning the championship, I didn't feel a sense of accomplishment. Compared to last seasons victory over the Celtics, '09 was just boring. d11kingREALLY? You didnt feel a sense of accomplishment in 09'? It was our first championship in 7 YEARS, that's like 30 years in Laker years.

No I see where he's getting at, I was happy the Lakers won and all, but everyone could tell that the Magic were the classic "just-happy-to-be-there" team and that they didn't stand much of a chance against the Lakers. On the other hand, last year's Finals was very much up for grabs and it felt like LA had finally killed its demons from the '08 debacle.
Pistons Spurs IMO was a great series. Yes some of the games were sloppy, and low scoring but that was due to 2 of the greatest defenses uin the last decade, not bad offensive execution. Easily one of my favorite series.
Spurs Cavs was a dreadful mismatch
Pacers vs Lakers was pretty crap
The Nets in both of their final series against LA and the Spurs were pretty brutal
and Orland L.A i though was an overall poor series, Dwight Howard was shut down and Orlando didnt really have a chance despite some close games
probably 2006 or 2007. Refs really bsed the mavs in the 06 series. That's the only time i can think other than 05 superbowl where refs really altered a game majorly.
[QUOTE="frostybanana"][QUOTE="No_Hablo_Ingles"]Pistons vs Spurs, Spurs vs Cavs, or Spurs vs Nets This is not debatable IMO.No_Hablo_InglesPistons vs Spurs? What? That was one of the best series in the last 10 years and one of the only ones that was close until the SEVENTH game. Do you just hate defensive teams or something? It was a tough, physical series with two teams who played team basketball. Just because you don't have a Kobe or a LeBron in there doesn't mean it can't be enjoyable. I was not entertained. If I remember correctly I went to sleep during one of the games. I like seeing teams with conflicting play styles, so Spurs/Pistons was the worse match up. so playing the game it was meant to be played is boring ey?
