OK so I've been wanting to post this rambling below but I better do it now before we move on. Plus I have a good buzz on.
So, IMO these bubble playoffs were a uniquely fantastic experience as a fan. You got to see just pure play, with no crowds to sway you or the refs or the road team. Just talent vs talent. The conflicts with refs was so much less, because the players and refs could just talk instead of having to yell. It was just ball.
I can see where fans of a specific team would think otherwise, part of the fun of rooting your team to a ring is seeing all your fans in the colors, the crowds going nuts. But for someone without a dog in the fight, really great basketball viewing.
