Surprised by the interest in the NBA on this board

[Two Gap Penetrator]

The NBA sucks. You know it does. The last time I went to a Sixers game it was so boring. I couldn't wait to get out of there.

[Big Little]

Exactly - NBOREA

Amazing how often they travel in the NBA without getting called on it.. pretty damn ridiculous

Yeah, imagine if the NFL left players hold on every play and only called a penalty once in a while. Can you imagine?!?!

[Big Little]

Not the same thing but feel free to draw random parallels if you like

Dribbling is part of the fundamentals of basketball.. Be like a hockey player carrying the puck in his hand to the goal.. Doesn't make sense

But applauded on all the walking and dunking in the NBA, exciting stuff

So blocking is not part of the fundamentals of football? How do you think the game would look if nobody blocked ever. Guess they're not teaching young kids what blocking is anymore since it's not fundemental. I'm sure everyone would be lining up to play QB and RB if they're told, "You take the ball, there's 5 guys standing in front of you that are on your team and 5+ opponent coming after you. The 5 on your team, they're not allowed to impede the opponents though. Good luck."

Your gripe was that a penalty that should get called doesn't get called every time it happens. I gave you an example of another sport where the exact same thing happens. Sorry, you lose.

Imagine a league that allows the players to "police themselves" with fist fights, yet insists that it's not a niche sport.

[Big Little]

Weak but if you feel you won have it

Regardless dribbling is the first thing you learn when playing basketball and they don't do it properly in the NBA

Sorry the sports an abomination in the NBA.. Now college BB is a dif story

[Riccardo]

Yeah it's ridiculous

worst sport ever. I'd rather watch tiddlywinks

[Raptor]

I always enjoy

how you can miss the entire first half of the season and its doesn't mean a thing when half the damn league gets in the playoffs anyway.

SNORE

Best season was the strike year a few years back when every game meant more.

[Big Little]

They allowed it in the NBA till someone was killed with a punch

Look it up

Still they don't dribble properly in the NBA, it's weak

Yeah, thank goodness that doesn't happen in hockey.

[Big Little]

Hahahah right there with you

I actually don't mind the Spurs too much because they play fundamental "boring" basketball

That's not the NBA model so once the big 3 retire that will probably be my last day of watching basketbore

So…one player is seriously injured or killed in 1977 and the NBA immediately makes fighting a major No-No.

Players are seriously hurt in fights EVERY year in the hockey around the world and they still champion the fighting.

Yeah, the NBA is a disgrace.

[Snakebitten]

The NBA sucks because the Sixers suck. Watching the same four or so teams compete for the title over lengthy periods of time blows....unless it's your team. If this team becomes one of those teams, the NBA will become a lot less boring locally.

[TRENT]

Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawwwwwwnnnnnn
