NBA 2008-2009 Season

It means the Cavaliers will win the 'chip.

See, it goes something like this:

Due to economy crises, ratings, season ticket holders, promotions and marketing in the NBA has declined resulting to poor overall revenue. In the last 4-5 years, the interest has plummeted to all-time low after the Jordan era.

So, Commissioner David Stern pulled the plug and called in the Operation: Rebirth. Hey, Kevin McHale is a GM in Minny and Jerry West still has a power in Memphis, so why not pull a classic Lakers-Celtics match up to "bring back the glory days". So KG was traded to the Celtics for one gold and some scrubs while Memphis dumped Gasol for pennies.

Then there was the expected Lakers-Celtics Finals game that everyone has anticipated, with Stern tossing his coin to whoever wins the 'chip between those two teams. It turned out to be in the Celtics' favor.

Now, Stern is thinking about a rematch to make the NBA revenue stable. BUT... "Wouldn't it be great to make a "twist" ending for the 08-09 season?" Stern would scream at Stu Jackson, NBA's Executive VP in Basketball Operations. "That would be awesome, yeah?"

So, the blueprint would be to let the Lakers and Celtics do their thing but try to put them on a slump a little bit to create a stir in the newsworld (you know, the do-the-Celtics-still-have-it and why-are-the-Lakers-being-humbled-at-home thing).

Anyway, both are going to end up the top seeds anyway, making way for the diehard fans to think there's going to be a rematch. Odds/evens are gonna thrown all over the place. Advertising and marketing for both markets would skyrocket. Game betters would up their seat prices like a round-trip ticket flight. Underdog lovers and analysts will discuss the matchup even if they're sleeping. And Bugsy Seigle would rise from the grave.

But the idea is to make the Cavaliers sneak into those media hype and beat the Celtics, 4-to-none then storm into the NBA Finals, winning the title in five games over the Lakers, who won Game 2 because of Vujacic's 0.1 buzzer-beater.

A Kobe-Lebron finale would create an overflowing bulk of revenues than the anticipated Celtics-Lakers rematch. At least, that's what David Stern would think so then clinks his champagne glass to both Jerry West, Doc Rivers, Kevin McHale, Stu Jackson and Danny Ferry.

if LeBron wins the MVP plum this season and could lead Cleveland to a title i will take back my statement saying that he's overrated. for now, i stand firm. Chris Paul can put up those numbers too.

hala lalisa ninyo.

[cainez]

you can't compare the two, they're playing different position.. he doesn't need to prove to you, he already proved it to millions of people.. we'll respect your opinion as long as you respect others too.. ya dig??

[marvel]

that's what critics are for, brainstorming. and besides that what most people rely on (this forum), mere stats. i'll play with stats and not resort to name calling (you know who you are..haha).

[cainez]

then accept the fact mas sikat si lebron kaysa sa imong favorite player.. nba is primarily still a business, and lebron is the next biggest product.. you can't please everybody as they say, esp. guys like you who has very very very high standard for a player. ;o)
