    People LOVE the underdog, if Game 7s were played at neutral sites it would basically be a Houston home game.

    I do agree though, the NBA does need this...the NBAs biggest problem with the playoffs is that it is TOO predictable.

    The ratings SHOOT up for the Finals because it seems as if everyone is waiting for the forgone conclusion...while other sports it's not as predictable...but everyone already thinks Lebron vs Kobe...

    Hell...

    <object width="560" height="340"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/EsPndm2ff4Q&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/EsPndm2ff4Q&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="560" height="340"></embed></object>

    Seriously...

    Lets do this, these commercials will then be meaningless....how funny/great would that be?

    Although... I love these commercials

    I hope they pull it off in Los Angeles, this team and our city deserve it. This team has so much heart its amazing, you gotta be proud of the effort our guys give night in and night out on the floor (except game 5)
