The NBA is doomed. And I can prove it. Not ONE player in the Finals or on this list is the "Face of the league" and LeBron is stat padding/podcasting

Shai has a dry personality for sure, and Haliburton is missing a prime opportunity to capitalize on the nickname "Haliban" :pachaha:.....

Having said that, the media is to blame for OKC and IND not getting the props they deserve. They do an extremely poor job promoting the sport and players, which hurts fans interests in smaller market teams and guys outside of the old crew (LeBron, Curry, Durant, etc.).

As far as the "face of the league" goes, Zion Williamson fumbled that crown. He had all the hype since high school, his explosive playstyle was a direct counter to all the 3-point barrage in the league, if only he was disciplined about managing his weight, he had all the makings of a megastar.

Ja morant too they was pushing him hard before the gun shyt, nba really struggles pushing players that aren't athletic freaks.


Like shai is putting up all time stats right now. Like this up there with Jordan type stats as a guard.

havent religiously watched in half a decade or more at this point
I stopped watching NFL in 2004 and never looked back and its been great


ill watch clips of the 4th quarter of NBA games at this point
nobody is reinventing the wheel so its pointless... even the Game 2 tonight of the finals
I just saw half ass defense, teams swinging the ball around the 3 ... and bigs jacking up shots with nobody under the rim

the great part is with no bias or teams being bought into rings ... we get to actually see amazing players and clubs finally get the credit they deserve if they prove it

Another poster with zero posts in the finals thread acting like he is cares about the nba :russell:

Just like the ones talking about the ratings the most, talk about the games the least. Kinda weird at this point.

I’m tryna understand what you really care about

Record tv deals, record contracts and record valuations for teams, so it’s not the finances. You don’t watch or at least comment about anything sports related, so what are you really interested in :jbhmm:
