The NBA Playoffs are Near

With about a week remaining in the NBA regular season the playoffs are amongst us. The NBA playoffs are tremendously different than the playoffs in other sports.

When it comes to the sport of football, the south and its love for college football celebrate a "National Championship" every year because they play a "Leprechaun" that can't compete. In the NFL parity is throughout but that "any given Sunday" idea always comes into play. We see teams on both levels playing in the big game that are not expected and often times are shown why we did not ever expect them there.

Baseball too has a seven game series and it creates excitement extended for weeks at a time.
We see that big money can be paid and that team still do mediocre for seasons in a row. Baseball has its own "past time" way off being enjoyed, especially when we get a meaningful game seven, maybe Boston, New york.

Basketball, in the NBA is Lakers, Celtics, as well as Jordan and his Bulls. The Lakers and Celtics have 33 combined NBA titles. Of recent we have seen those two organizations fall back in the race, and witnessing Jordan put out the worst team on the court while in is front office position with his Bobcats.

Basketball shows us year after year the NBA and basketball in general is about the best! One player can dominate in ways that cannot be done in any other team sport. We will get to see the Heat make a run at another championship and we will most certainly see some game seven magic. Basketball, the game is proven immediately and to see the best at their top level this time of year is a treat.
