The NBA is dying

No. Good goalie can win you games. 0-0 is the same as 3-3.

MLB used to be OK with shutout pitching? Or The Steel curtain NFL.

I understand the need for a goalie in hockey....but soccer needs to get rid of the goalie because all they do is prevent any excitement that would have been possible with fast-break opportunities.

The offsides rule kills so many good chances. More than goalies probably?

The reason for off-sides rules is to keep players from parking in front of the other team's goal.

It's cheating. It also would lead to an even more boring game.

Boring

This is how profoundly meaningful these supposedly low scoring games are to people! 13 years apart

Just watch

I'm definitely weening myself off the game! IMO, it's already unwatchable! I've already had negatve feelings about the league after The Sacramento Kings were robbed in favor of the Lakers! The league has exponentially lost their fundamentals over the years & as an oldster, the game has just gotten ugly! Traveling is barely called when egregious done all alone!
