Saving the NBA

This has been one of the best NBA postseasons in years. There have been several fantastic games, but also some surprising disappointments. I think Bill Simmons has identified a major reason why the NBA has suffered, and he does it with a fantastic (and previously unknown to me) historical anecdote about the origin of the 24 second shot clock.

Neat article, thanks for the link. Personally, I am less and less interested in the NBA each year. I can't stand the style of play. Still, great article. I hope that the Magic can find a way to win ... not really a fan of Kobe.

Yeah. This is the first post-season that I've watched in a long time, and there have been some great moments.
