Why is everyone loving NBA??

[griswold]

I didn't say I was in the majority. I said I didn't understand why people like college better than the pros. I don't understand it.

I think the NBA is shit

You live in Louisville....maybe thats why

One of the worst sports to bet on, one of the gayest sports to watch!!

They play music as they're playing (WHAT SPORT PLAYS MUSIC DURING FUCKIN GAME PLAY SERIOUSLY?????) and they barely fuckin try!!

You never know which team is actually gonna come out of the locker room, they give it their ACTUAL ALL 50% of the time if that, and I just don't understand why everyone in this forum loves it so much??????

NBA players are more concerned about how much money they have and individual effort rather than TEAM!!

I KNOW I CANT BE THEY ONLY ONE THAT FEELS THIS WAY!!

You live in Canada.....not that it matters but the NHL can not even get a TV deal

There are two things in the world I can't grasp:

a) The incredibly high ratings for Dancing With The Stars;

b) how anyone can prefer a college basketball game to one in the NBA.

College basketball has the worst rules of any sport. The last 3:00 are foulathons. The quality of play is pathetic as all the good players go the NBA. the talent pool is diluted with 250 Division 1 teams. NOBODY can shoot. The coaching is often terrible as good recruiters are named head coach. The 35-second clock is ludicrously long. One-third of all games involve unheard of Division II and III schools losing by 60 points.

In the meantime, I can see Lebron to a reverse spinning dunk, fastbreaks that go from one end of the court to the next in two seconds, Kobe Bryant drilling a 35-footer with one second left with a hand in his face, Dwyane Wade doing anything.

As for which team is going to show up---name a sport where motivation isn't an issue. As for betting, I love playing the nBA. There is a logic and reason behind it and it can be beaten. It is certainly easier for me than baseball and I had a great year in that sport.

As for the gayness point, we have had people posting on this site about soccer.

One final point: who would you rather watch play, Dirk Nowitzki off the double team at the top of the key or some freshman at LSU going to the free thorw line 47 times in the last minute of a game?????????????????

couldnt agree more......thats like saying arena ball is better than the NFL

Like the NFL, I can watch any NBA game that is on TV. Those are the only two sports that I don't care who is playing I'll watch it. College BB is another story, IT IS THE WORST!!! Maybe it's better to bet on, but to watch it? You have to be kidding me! Teams hang on to the ball for the full time on the shot clock EVERYTIME. A guy could have a easy layup and he'll kick it out just to use up the full shot clock. Way too much passing. Again, A guy has a great look, but he'll turn around and make a pass instead. I'm not saying this doesn't happen in the NBA, but there is a lot more of it in NCAABB. More than I can stand, and you can keep you 53 to 59 scores as well.

I hate the NBA. The sport is a complete joke. I despise watching the games. However, it's my favorite sport to cap. IMO it's the easiest sport to gauge with teams playing about 3 games each week.

JC after I left that I noticed it was kinda abrasive.........but lets be honest are you tellin me if you had an NBA team you wouldnt be all over their jock?

Please be honest....sorry for soundin harsh previously

PEACE

just heard kobe is out if any cares....

[frankb03]

Maybe only soccer players are conditioned better than basketball players.

IMO Boxers are better conditioned than NBA players. Most possessions in the NBA involve the players joging from end to end then lots of standing around. Only a few times in each game are teams running up and down the court.
