Why does everyone have to love the modern NBA?
They don’t. Many NBA HOFers don’t.
Grow up.
You’re a Pelicans fan.
Look at this athleticism. Who cares if it illegal as long as it’s entertaining.

That is funny. Wonder how long refs have to work to retrain themselves to allow that.

No, the all-star game is a complete joke.
I don't know when they'll institute the obvious: A USA team vs a world team. It would be fabulous.
No, the NBA is a joke. It’s a 3 man game with little defense played.

Nonsense. You never watch it, and know nothing about it.

Ask the Hall of Famers. They are on record that it’s less physical and they don’t play D.
Bird, Kareem, Ewing, Isaiah, Malone, Shaq, Reggie, Barkley all agree with me.
The game is unwatchable.
Again, you don’t watch it, and you know jack shit
(no message)
So those HOF players who agree with me don’t know anything?
You know more than them?
No, professor, you don’t.
The defense is different. But the offense is just so much better.
And did I mention that you know jack shit? Did I forget to mention that?
You’re actually telling HOFers that they don’t know shit.
You’re a Pelicans fan. Phenomenal basketball team.
Pretty sure you don’t speak for Larry Bird, GOAT.
Pretty sure you’re an old crank who hates the NBA mostly for culture-war reasons.
Not GOAT. Your ageist comments are inappropriate.. Your racist comments are absurd.
Pretty sure I agree with the HOFers and you don’t.
I prefer the game that Chamberlain and Russell played.
The game Bird and Magic played.
Not the soft no-defense game I see today.
BTW, most of the HOFers I mentioned are black.
Wait, yr saying those that don't fawn over the NBA are racist? WOW

He’s throwing a tantrum like a 2 year old.
When 94 has lost an argument he resorts to ageist comments (which I am surprised the board allows)
and labels people racist.
He’s predictable.
His "city" could never score a franchise. So...

My City has scored 6 Super Bowls and 5 Stanley Cups. Yours?
We are into major sports.
Waddaya done lately?
Not fuck-all.
More than the flyers. Win 5 more Lombardis and we’ll compare notes.
Dude, you love NBA , fine.
Some people like to go to the circus or watch NASCAR.
Good for all of you.
Small market is tough sledding in today's world.
You have my sympathy. Seriously. I am very empathetic.
The game is better than it has ever been
Just heard a big discussion about this on the radio. Some guys have taken a bunch of measurements, like explosiveness and jumping ability and shooting %s.
The athleticism is the best ever, as fans know. These guys blow your mind 3 or 4 times a game. And the talent is coming from all over the world now, raising the bar.
Stef Curry and Steve Kerr have certainly Up’d the NBA game.

I go to at least 20 Sixers games a year. The misconceptions on here are silly.
I have never seen any player or fan disrespect the anthem. No kneeling, etc.
The games are shorter than any of the major sports - faster than NHL, NFL, and MLB (by far).
The crowd is knowledgeable and totally engaged as long as there isn't a blowout.
Every time out there is something going on... T-shirt cannons etc.
The players sign autographs for kids at the end of the game

Not silly, just different. NHL plays actual defense.

In the all-star game? Impressive!
I don't know anyone who watches any all star game. I mean, they play flag football in the pro bowl.
Talking about regular season. NHL guys play D.

You like skating. We get it.
You like geezers playing guitars. We get it.
You like expensive loafers. We get it.
But, we don't care.
You’re not paying attention.
Joe Bonanassa is not a geezer. Neither is Guitar Zack nor Ana Popovic.
I like college basketball just fine.
My wardrobe is refined.
Nobody cares that you don’t care.
