Does anybody give a crap NBA starts tomorrow?

[frostno98]

I like my odds doing a 4 team parlay on a NBA bet vs the NHL any day, so yeah I'm glad there's something better to bet on until Thursday night.

[You mad bro]

NBA is just scripted bullshit.

Every referee in the league sucks Kobe Bryant's dick and it is pathetic.

Give me Duke vs UNC in college b-ball over a scripted Lakers vs Heat game any day.

That being said, I hope to make money in the NBA this year and I did alright last year.

D-Rose is back after acting like a pussy for a year, but I'm excited to see him tear it up:

We get to see someone who is one of my favorite athletes to watch in all of sports because his style is always exciting, Stephen Curry:

and my boy Metta World Peace will be doing crazy shit all year:

I'm just really excited about college b-ball.

I've been looking for a Jabari Parker high school jersey for a while.

Simeon Career Academy, hook me up.

duke fan here brother . hope parker pays off and stays 4 years lol

[I/O]

Nasher, I think they got a shot you can get this time of the year so you don't get NBA sick.

[bubblebuttluv]

I believe he will stay at least more than one year.

I think he buys into Coach K and I think he really does want to get his degree now so I think there is a good chance he stays all 4 years.

Too many people (mainly ESPN) wants to make it sound like every great player will always do that one-and-done shit.

I mainly just rep coaches in college b-ball and support the teams they coach. My boys are Coach K, Patino, and Izzo.

It'll be awkward from my fan standpoint when Louisville is in the ACC next year, but the conference play will be truly special.

The fake Steve Nash (me) loves the way the real one plays the game.
Love the way he plays the point.
Used to really like the NBA, no more.

he is amazing, i love good point guards. got hooked on nba watching the nets with jason kidd in early 2000's lose in the finals a couple times. was a big jason kidd fan.
I understand how people don't like how the effort is not always there, and the arguing with the refs after every call is really annoying.
I still like it though, i think sometimes you catch a great game that makes up for some of the bs, but it is shady sometimes and the balance in the league sucks these days.
anyway thanks for answering

Worst league in pro sports.

Agreed.

The whole flopping thing is so fricking out of control.

[sando]

nba is easy money every year.

This. The easiest of the big league sports to make money from and the most entertaining. Win/Win.

[Goat Milk]

what makes bball players real athletes compared to other sports? im sure its a lot harder to ice skate than it is to run down a hardwood floor

probably harder to hit a 100 mile per hour baseball compared to being 6'6 jumping 2 ft to dunk a ball
probably harder to evade a tackle from a 250lb lineman with full equipment on than it is to block a shot
probably harder to be a goalie in hockey facing shots all night compared to being a center letting everyone go by you
probably harder to catch a ball crossing the middle on a football field than it is catching a ball on a fast break

stop it.....

hitting a baseball is skill. not athleticism.

nba average size is like 6'6 215 pounds and probably 8% body fat.

If Derrick Rose or Westbrook ran the bases they would steal more bases and run harder than any player in major league baseball. fact.

Who is baseball's most athletic player? Puig?
WHat's Puigs 40 time? Put that next to Rose.
What's Puigs vertical leap? Put that next to Rose.
What's Puigs bench press? Put that next to Rose.
Whats Puigs leg press? Next to Rose.

Ha. Even a POINT GUARD dicks smacks the most athletic baseball player in every category. not even close.

[Goat Milk]

Jordan played major league baseball and barely even trained for it. he played baseball growing up. big deal. it's much easier to make it to the mlb than the nba.

it's not even close.

nba is the most difficult league to make it in. there are less than 500 players in the nba. even very good d1 college players have a slim chance to make the nba and many of those guys flop in the league.

what don't you understand?

you know why they flop in the league? Because players are way bigger, way faster, stronger, the athleticism is through the roofs.

[Goat Milk]

The point is you can work hard if you want to play in NHL and MLB. Work hard from a young age.

If you don't have the natural athletic ability from a young age, you're not playing in the NBA.

[thetrinity]

you my friend are most definitely clueless

good night

your definitely clueless if you think the nba is more rigged then ncaa basketball, look how many betting scandals theyve had throughout history of course its going to be easy to a college kid who has nothing, this happens yearly and we dont even hear about it.

nba had one official who owed the mob money, and some coked up knicks players.

ncaa basketball is a joke anymore, one or 2 good players who stay more than a year.

[Goat Milk]

obviously in terms of pure skill, you can make the argument that baseball and hockey take a much higher level of pure skill than basketball and most other sports.

we're talking athleticism here.

this is not true. usian bolt couldnt steal 1 base in mlb.

Steve hope you reconsider and maybe test the waters a bit this NBA season
