The playoffs have been great....
thus far.
Wonder how much longer I can stay interested with the long delay in between games, and layoffs in between series.... I liked the old format much better. |

Have they gone more than 2 days between games in a series?

I looked it up. There's hasn't been more than two days between games in any series so far.

Agreed. The old format was better.
I preferred it when the first round was best of 5. There was more of a chance for an upset. I just wish the NBA would tell the truth that the reason for extending the first round wasn't to ensure that the best teams advance, but because it was more games in which to make money. While I'd much rather see the Jazz in the playoffs, I have to admit that it's been kind of nice to watch the post season without any emotional investment. It's a lot easier to enjoy it this way.

I am hoping for a Lakers/Clippers round two... that could be fun.
