Have you lost interest in the NBA?

[MR. Conclusion]

I hate to admit it, but as an NBA fan the OP is right on most of the points listed.

I know it will never happen because of the lost revenue, but a 50 to 60 game regular season would make it a lot more interesting.

 

[Dwight Howard]

the regular season has become really watered down with the constant resting and star players general disregard for the regular season

 

[Icantspell]

I only watch the finals.

 

[phillycavsfan]

Fukk parity.

Parity is just a euphemism for acceptable mediocrity.

 

[The Devil's Advocate]

No rivalries

Long, Meaningless Season that players don't even care about

Lack of Post game

Every game is a 3 point shooting contest

Tanking

Superteams

Players allowed to travel which makes playing Defense damn near impossible

Flopping

Lack of Parity

82 game season only for more than half the league to make the playoffs only for the top 2 teams in the conference to make it to the conference chips damn near every year.( Talk about pointless)

Have I quit? Nah

Definitely lost some interest though. It's damn September.... but I knew last July that GS was about to win this ring for 2018 already

So yea. That does kinda make the whole 82 games pointless and most the playoffs. I love the fukkery and trades. shyt my team the sixers. I gotta see this process come to fruition.


But I'll be damned if I'm all gung ho on some "I wonder who's gonna win it all this year" type shyt

I stopped watching when Jordan retired honestly. I still remember them games on WGN. I'm from Oakland so watching the Warriors transform into a fukking powerhouse is fun

[Manuel Hot Pepper Lopez]

Probably more excited for this year than any in recent years. So many new look teams, promising rookies, and dope storylines.

Feel the same way. This will be the first time I cop 2K in a couple years. But I feel the newness of all these off-season moves will wear off near All-star break, and we'll just be waiting for Warriors/Cavs III

NFL had a team score 0 points, two teams score 3 points, two teams score 9 points and one team score 7 points on Sunday

had the Saints, the team with a high flying offense, kick nothing but field goals

Had some guy name Tolzien playing quarterback

And this is just one week

Terrible product

The NBA has tanking.

Nothing compares to that

I definitely hate that shyt

When the NBA shortened season started on Christmas Day in 2011 due to the lockout, it turned out to be a solid season.

It would be cool to have the season start on Christmas. But, the league and owners ain't having that...

No its not. Its hard to be a sports fan without any hope.

Parity= I think my team has a chance at a good season if things shake right.

Lol we say this every year, and by June, the season looks the exact same as last

 

[RiffRaff]

Shyt is trash.

I don't watch sports to see everyone get a fair shake. I want excellence. Serena. The Warriors. Barcelona and Real Madrid. I don't want my favorite QB missing out on the Super Bowl because his team's not allowed to spend more money to get a decent secondary.
