The Bulls scored 152 points in a game

0 points were scored between 10-24ft.

All 3's, layups, etc.

Just glorified shoot-arounds, layup lines, and All-Star game type basketball. The NBA needs to step in and change some dynamics, as the MLB has done, to improve their game.
 
I just finished watching a Denver Dallas game that was very entertaining. Denver had an open 3 to win it, but missed. That's what it's all about.

I never found basketball to be fun to watch at all, 7 foot guys playing catch but the constant squeak of the shoes is like having a kid running his fingers down a chalkboard, it gets annoying after about 1 minute or less
 
Its not the same as the days of Magic vs Bird... or Kobe and MJ... Shaq and the Admiral... Rambis and Laimbeer... Stockton and Malone... West and Chamberlain.... Russell and Cousy....
There is no heart in today's players....

You’re talking about one play. I’m talking about an entire game, and a league wide trend

Maybe its time to move the three point line back even further?

1. Who cares
2. Why reply?
 
I dont believe I have ever watched an NBA game on TV longer that to change the channel. Never understood the appeal. Yet I watch college ball a lot!
So why reply to this thread? Nobody cares that you don't watch the NBA.
 
It is hard to watch most anything anymore with referee. You just have to become numb, have no favorite team or it can kill you.

The last 30sec of NCAAB can take 10 minutes?
 
I experienced the best period for basketball, there's no need for me to watch it anymore outside of the odd Raptors game just for spiritual support. The 1990s was the best for basketball IMO.

Some might suggest the 1980s Showtime Lakers with their rivalry with Boston, to each their own. The 1990s was most intense as they allowed physicality for a period of time, internal scoring was where the money was made for player endorsement, and, due to this there were strong defensive players.

Now it's just a 3 point fest, defense is non-existent. Rich guys players all-star game rules everynight
 
The NBA was never watchable. Never. Repeat: Never

back in the day when players were 6 feet they had to shoot with skill, not just run up to the basket and slam it and then swing on it like it's a jungle gym

want the sport to be more fair?.......raise the freaking hoop up so they can't just practically drop it in

So then why reply to a thread about people discussing the NBA? It’s as if you’re lonely or have delusions of grandeur

If someone started a thread about Gilmore Girls, I wouldn’t take the time to invade the thread to say “Gilmore girls is dumb, and I don’t watch it”. To me that would be narcissistic in nature because you think others need to know what you think.

The truth is, nobody cares of you don’t watch the NBA.

The WNBA is way better than the NBA these days. The ladies actually have to play as a team.

Women playing each other is hotter too.
 
I could tell you all stories that would entertain. That's all//
