    That the Blazers played the last game 1 (in the NBA) and the first game 5 (in the NBA)???

    I think its a little unfair for both the Blazers and the Suns that they have not had more than 1 day in between their first 5 games....

    :confused:

    Should we be complaining or applauding?

    After a month of preseason, 82 game regular schedule, and three more rounds of playoffs, do you really want to slow this series any more?

    I agree. A day between games is perfect.

    I've loved it. I hate waiting so long between games. This is how it used to be back when it was Best of 5. I hate that I have to wait til Thursday for Game 6.

    Yeah, I don't mind it either being a fan. Being a player? Who knows how they feel about it. And I miss the Best-of-5 first-round format. That provided so much more drama and more potential for upsets back in the day.

    It's because other teams are usually sharing their arena with hockey teams (like the Avalanche and Blackhawks right now for Denver/Chicago at least), or have other events scheduled there.

    I believe we were the first team to play a game 4 after being the last to play a game 1. If we were healthy and had depth, that'd be even more to our favor.
