I watched more NBA this year than ever before. I usually watch for the officials, but I like to watch two good teams play. That is why the playoffs are usually good. I especially liked the Dallas-Phoenix series. Very little defense, but it was exciting and entertaining.

I heard an interview with Luke Ridenour during the season on the radio and they asked him what he felt was the major difference between the play in college, and the play in the NBA, and he said that he felt the biggest thing was the length of the season. It was an interesting point. He went on to say that it is one reason why offenses are played differentl-- more isolation, less overall movement, etc. I just found it interesting because I had never thought about how conditioning and scheduling factor into the game play differences between college and the NBA.
