OT- NBA Finals or NBA Draft?
What are you more excited about? I am more excited about the draft because it can directly impact the Magic and I could care less about the teams in the finals. I know we usually suck at drafting, but I actually feel confident going in to this draft.

I won't be able to watch the Draft as I will be in Greece (or in the air) come that time.
But the Finals feels so fixed to me I can't seem to watch more than 10 minutes before moving on to something else.

Finals by far for me. It's the pinnacle of the season.
The draft I only watch until the Magic pick and then I turn it off. I may not even watch the draft next year due to our 22nd pick will take so long to get to. Plus the talking heads at the draft usually annoy me to no end.

Finals I guess, well no.. draft, until we ultimately trade our pick for a **** player or draft somebody that I hate .. then the hype turns into disappointment.

Obviously the draft. I dont understand how fans of a team could care more about the finals (when their team isnt in it), as opposed to something that will have an impact on the future of the team.
well nm I guess, we dont typically draft players that have an impact on our team, but im still looking forward to the draft, and not interested in Stern's NBA finals.

i voted for the nba draft, but only because it's more important to me as a magic fan than the nba finals.
"excited" is just not the correct word to describe how i feel about this upcoming draft.
more like "anxious".
i am excited about these finals, though.
if you're a fan of NBA basketball, it's kind of hard not to be.

I have a different view of the draft than others because I never followed a college team. NYC had 2 pro teams for every sport, and that's what I focused on.
So with the draft, notable exception was the Dwight draft, for it's interesting, but who knows how the kid will do in the pros ...
Yes there's a greater impact with the draft, but it's not very exciting for someone like me, unlike Neon1. Just differing viewpoints.
