NBA is a train wreck

[byronbb]

Blow outs every night. Utah losing by 25. Detroit down 30. Portland down 19 at half in a game that should be close.

[Darkside Magick]

Bettors dream......one of the best season for Nba betting

Really why so?

[jjgold]

I am not as interested this year, I still watch and bet but in the backround

[Zeus54]

The NBA sucks huge dick. Unwatchable garbage.

[R.P. McMurphy]

Almost a buck and a half scored in 1h at Denver, Knicks win by almost 30, and the Mavs jump out huge on Port up 40-12 at one point. Hell must have just froze over lol. Been a shit league for a long while now!

[R.P. McMurphy]

And lets not forget nearly half the league is tanking by mid Feb if not earlier for a shitty rigged draft full of undeveloped kids. Most of whom will wind up with crap teams and be forgotten in no time.

[greenhippo]

Rockets killing it right now too.

[BigDofBA]

Few games are exciting.

Playoffs are much better.

[convick]

Yeah and college basketball isnt much better.

Penn State smothers Northwestern 59-32

lol, I'll watch the 59-32 PSU-N'Western game over a Lakers-Clippers game decided by 48 points.

[convick]

Yeah ok, if you like seeing a bunch of pasty white kids shoot 40% from the free throw line and 20% from 3.

How about this pathetic excuse for a game tonight.

[MiDNiTe]

wow blazers on a roll what were their odds down 28 ?

[pulledclear]

Dead as SBR.

[R.P. McMurphy]

At least in college the players and the fans actually give a shit. And if you have a classic rival gm which is sadly fading due to realignment $$$$ , or a battle between two heavyweights it's truly better and more electric than anything the nba can offer.

Sure they do... Thats why some arenas have like 2000 fans for senior night.

Even games with top 5 teams are garbage. Any player worth a damn leaves for the NBA after 1-2 years.

[broadway6]

Dallas was up 40-10.

[EaglesPhan36]

Welcome to the last 10-15 years.

Most of these kids grow up poor, no shit they're gonna jet to the NBA as soon as they can.

Many experts say the downfall of college basketball and the NBA are too many young players that are not polished

They should stay in school for three years before they can become eligible

Both products will win then

This is actually true. First smart thing you have said in 6 months JJ Jew. All that imported European soft talent has been masking this dilemma though....but not for long once that well dries up for the NBA.

[PyreLight]

You hate it so much you watch the games and post on nba forums?

[Goat Milk]

The rate of D1 players that are drafted into the nba is 0.92%.

That just shows you what a bad product D1 basketball is. The talent level is a disgrace compared to the nba.

I'm not trying to watch sports to see people with heart, I'm trying to see ppl with talents far above my own, and in college, that's not the case.

[dawgs777]

the best was when laker won Portland with that amazing play. then lose at LLALALALAAL TO CLIPPERS BY 40+++ points how why how why ...........????????????? welcome to dengenland. I will be your host

[tokio]

We only hate it when we're on the losing side lol.

A lot of truth their, but I think the bigger truth is the NBA product is going down hill. The regular season is a joke. You had one of the top teams in the east (sad conference) go against a below top tier west team, in primetime none the less, and get destroyed. Granted the same thing happened this year in the NFL's showcase game. The only difference is the NFL is far above these kids in the NBA so it's more forgiving. LeBron James can't carry this league. Dude is good, but what the F was up with this clowns televised decision? You can't have somebody who is clearly in love with themselves care such a huge product like the NBA.

Lol, guy are you really trying to start a debate that a professional league has better talent than the NCAA?

No fuckin kidding the talent level is better in a 30 team professional league. The thing is the quality of games is just terrible in the NBA.I used to watch a lot of NBA games when I was younger, but it's just garbage now and has been for awhile. Can't tolerate more than 5 mins than an NBA game.

Most of today's NBA fans are hipsters/Obama voters.

[Darkside Magick]

The games are terrible because the Nba changes the rules ....if you go back to no zone and allow hand checking...you would see a total different game

[ParlayininHTown]

Yeah, talk about a total train wreck.

The NBA is a waste.

I'm sure the league will fold any day now, because a league this awful couldn't possibly be generating profits.

No, I'm trying to argue that the NCAA is a joke and a terrible product compared to the NBA. You get the illusion in NCAA that ppl are trying hard. For one, the commentators are about to jizz themselves, giving you the illusion that the game is exciting. Two the fans are drunk kids. Three you think the defense is good because the offensive players are beyond awful.

You know how fukkin easy a 3 pt shot in the NCAA is? It's a midrange j in the nba. How many times do you see guys missing wide open layups in college basketball? If that happened in the NBA you would wind up on Shaqtin a fool.

You get illusion that they are playing with heart because they scream after a made bucket. It's so hard to play defense consistently in the NBA because you have 6'10 guys dribbling on the perimeter and pulling up from 30 ft. A 6'10 in college basketball is consider a monster These guys in the NBA are 6'10 pgs basically.

The NFL is the most rigged sport out there. Did you not see how rigged it was for Seattle to beat the 49ers? You should watch that Youtube video. It's eyeopening. Couldn't believe it.

NFL doesn't have a big name like Bryant or Lebron that can carry the sport globally. Lebron is known worldwide - even in poor countries we've never even heard of.

Just look at these NBA rejects like Graham Tony Gonzo Julias Peppers and Antonio Gates that go on to be stars in the NFL - but aren't even close to athletic or skilled enough to play in the NBA even though they played basketball their whole lives and barely football.

[jjgold]

Most kids coming out early in hoops are flops

its proven and shows on the court

Change the rules.. 3 years in college

[SportsMushroom]
