      I loved the part when the Celtics eliminated Jrue and the Bucks. I'm sure he'll always remember that steal though, in a series where he shot about 20% from the field.

    Man, defense is such amazing part of the game. It's a shame that it doesn't get the same amount of credit as offense these days. I don't care if you can chuck up threes, that's lame and boring to watch. I'll watch chasedowns and rejections and diving steals and clever strips all day.

      @@Cosmic_13x you are completely wrong. The NBA has not changed rules to make scoring easier, they legalized zone defense which led to the 2000s being the lowest scoring era in NBA history. It was impossible to score on the zone. There was only one way to beat it, and that was the 3 point shot. Once teams figured this out, they started shooting the 3 nonstop and it changed everything. Made offenses unstoppable because of spacing. There were no rule changes that led to more scoring, the only rule changes led to significantly less scoring. There are also fewer free throws now then ever before, so it's not like the refs are causing the games to be high scoring. Teams have just figured it out, and there's no nutting the genie back in the bottle now.
