    yeh, and there's always the "big market" factor. SA is a big city with nothing going for it in terms of satellite markets. Dallas and Houston are bigger with more. Lots less peeps watching for that reason alone. Shoot, I might not catch a full game or even watch 48 minutes total of the Finals series anyways the way my home routine is going. The games come on right when I am putting three little angels to sleep, and they each want personalized attention, lol.

    Williams and Boozer look to be the next Malone and Stockton, but with more athleticism and time for room to grow (in terms of meshing together). I would not be surprised if they will someday finally bring a title to Utah. They will likely be in the league together years after S.A's Duncan is gone.

    Just read the report on espn.com. Some blog peeps think it's just Kobe trying to make some noise so the front office finally takes him seriously and gets a viable second threat to play alongside him finally. I dunno...he does sound tired of everything, tho.

    Yes SA is boring to watch and people feel the same way about us. Look at how many times we have won championships, how many times we go to the finals. But we do not have one "Star". Our guys are not as commercial as the others. They seem like your hard working blue collar kind of guys. They work hard and get the job done. I love to watch Lebron play and I will watch not matter what.
    Duncan looks like a big baby. He always has that sad little puppy dog look. Big eyes lookin' all sad!!! LOL Gets old to look at. Sorry it just bugs me.

    my issue with Duncan is how his eyes bug out every time a call goes against him. i swear, he's got a talent...it's a wonder they don't fall out of his skull sometimes.

    Detroit is an awesome "team". My impression is that Chicago and Golden State are built the same way...everyone contributes, everybody works for it.

    Too bad they are your own kids, you could have so much fun with them.
    I have 11 nieces and nephews. Everytime my little 7 yr nephew stayed the night I gave him permission to say "What the hell?!?!?!" during the play offs and the finals.

    So everytime he saw a B. Ball game on T.V. he would yell at he T.V. and say, "What the HELL?!?!?"


    He told his dad Aunt Ellie lets me say that. So I got busted.

    To this day he looks at me with those big eyes and says, "Can I say it?"

    last nights game wasn't worth watching, a blow-out to say the least! But I would have figured the jazz would have put up more of a fight!
