I hope they can work something out. Idk what I'll do with my time w/o an NFL and NBA season. The thought of it is just torturing.

I'm contemplating of learning hockey rules so I can watch it.
Also of buying MLB 2K12.

I could probably get on board with hockey. I don't know about baseball.

It looks like its going to be the bulls and the heat, Rose driving to the basket vs Dwayne Wade driving to the basketball. It'll be intresting to see how the heat's big men are going to content with Noah and Boozer in the middle. Maybe Joel Anthony and Big Z can do something against Chris Bosh can play some defense against the bulls bigs.

X-factor in this series if it happens, should be James Jones for the heat and Kyle Korver for the bulls. Hopefully the bulls can close it out against the hawks, everything looks in the bulls favor.
Cleveland wins

Well personally, I think I'll be watching more football here in Europe aside from Olympiakos,Dortmund and Champions League ,that currently interest me more and as it's final High School year,I might not try to watch more another sport like Hockey or Baseball(which I don't like that much like basketball or even NFL,which is rather interesting...)

As for today's match,is a win or win situation for both team. Atlanta has to win for obvious reasons,while Chicago must win this one in order to face the Heat as soon as possible and not give them (even that)rest and practice time...

Chicago on fire.

You know you are in trouble when Jason Collins takes the team's shots.

Great win, Game 5 against the Pacers and Game 6 against the Hawks have probably been the Bulls' two best performances of this postseason. Rose did a great job getting the front line involved early and picking his own shots a little better, nice to see Boozer looking more like the 20 and 10 player he's capable of being. The Hawks were doing a pretty poor job defending him on the pick and pop, 34 assists on 41 field goals is also pretty impressive.

Only series of the conference semis I predicted correctly (if you don't factor in number of games). Would have been the one upset to upset me as I hate watching Atlanta play.

I actually watched some baseball a couple of weeks ago. Wasn't all that bad.

But I just picked up the Spurs' 16 wins in the NBA Finals between 99 and 07, and finally managed to find some 90s NBL games, so I should be fine anyway.

I've just never been a fan. I don't really care for cricket either, so it's probably all relative. I'll just stick with classic games and video games for an NBA fix if a lockout takes some or all of next season.

Now that their season is over, how screwed are the Hawks?

Looking at their supposed best player who got the max contract last offseason, WTF were they thinking?

Yeah, I can only really handle 20/20 cricket, and that I picked the game up in the 7th inning probably helped.

But as I said, I've finally found NBL DVDs (including game 2 of the 99/00 grand final, which I attended, and my then-neighbour taped, and the tape hasn't been seen since, a copy of which I've been looking for for more than ten years now), so I should be right.
