Although I'm still recovering from my disappointment over the Pacers' failure to show up for Game 7 against the Heat, the NBA Finals are turning into a pretty entertaining series. What's strange about it is that only game 1 was competitive, then the Spurs and Heat have taken turns blowing each other off the court since.
I'm leaning toward the Spurs taking the title this year, but then I thought the Pacers had a chance to take the Eastern Conference title in Game 7. It's an entertaining series even for folks that don't care much who wins.
The Blackhawks and Bruins have a great series going. Too bad most people don't know, since the geniuses at NBC keep insisting on broadcasting the games on NBC Sports Channel, which must have a subscriber base of about 10 people. I wonder whether the NHL brass has any idea how many of us would be watching the series if it were just broadcast on a channel we actually can get on our televisions.
I think the NHL Finals is going to be a coin flip. Overtimes the first two games seems to predict what will probably happen for the duration. Whichever team can still put a healthy team on the ice by Game 7 will win. It's a brutal series.
Congratulations to Indiana University, who sent their baseball team to the College World Series for the first time ever. I got to see game 1, where the Hoosiers beat Louisville 2-0 behind a terrific pitching performance. They could have easily given the game away with a few base running errors, which may be cause for concern in games to come.
Usually there isn't much in the sports world to capture any of my interest this time of year, which is usually the Sports Desert between the Final Four and the NFL's Preseason. But fortunately there are a few things still worthy of attention.
