Basketball, part 2

Yes, I did watch the NBA playoffs--even though I had mixed feelings. It would have been okay with me if Cleveland had won, because I still have some negative leftovers about San Antonio. But I've lived in the western region all my life. So I can rarely bring myself to root for one of the eastern conference teams. So in spite of what I said previously about the Spurs, I still was cheering for them. I still like Duncan and Parker and most of the rest of the team (not that that matters to them). But when they interviewed Horry after the game, I kept picturing his body slam against Steve Nash.

So, I still like the Spurs overall. But Horry was largely a non-factor in the playoffs. And I still think of him as "cheap-shot" Bob, rather than big-shot Bob.

And that's all I have to say about that. As usual, your comments are welcome.

I didn't even realize the playoffs were going on until I happened to turn on the tv yesterday! I'm all for San Antonio though. A few years ago I was in San Antonio when they won the championship and the place was a circus with celebration.
