    Basketball has always been boring to me. Rather watch the hurricanes play the oilers in NHL than watch lakers bulls.

    This is not directed at anyone in this thread. Deuce thinks NBA is boring, I think Soccer is boring. To each it's own.

    I don't understand the hate the NBA gets as a whole. Every league has their problems. NFL is played different than it used to be...MLB's economics are BS and they have base clearing brawls...NBA players seen as thugs, but they come from the same places as the NFL players. ANd when the NBA has brawls, all the racist come out and say "see, look at these niggers". Is it because they make more on average than players in other leagues, or because you get to see all their tattoos? I have family members that have played in these leagues past and present. These guys aren't Billy badasses at all. Well, very few. Just young guys with a ton of money.

    Sure, but would you rather watch the Hurricanes play the Blue Jackets?

    the nba sucks because all you need is 2 superstars to decide what team they are going to play on......preferably a warm climate or high profile...... and make it to the finals every year. other then 3 or 4 teams no other city really has a chance. adding just one superstar to a team changes the outcome way way way way too much. thats why football is best and hockey is second. baseball is pretty much that bad but at least theres like 8 teams that can win it all.

    now I am not saying this because I am from minnesota......I am from Boston..Title town! and still I cant stand the NBA because of that.

    ^^ Not going to disagree with any of that. I was hoping they would find a solution through the lockout.

    I can only watch the last 5 minutes of a basketball game. Who cares about the rest?

    Disappointed the owners didn't hold out for a hard cap. NBA still has a lot of same problems, including too many teams. I can't stand the way the game is promoted and covered, especially espn. I agree, game is hard to watch

    I was hoping they wouldnt have a season this year and worked all that out.

    I mean seriously I wouldnt mind if they fired every player in the nba.....took D-league and college players and drafted them all and said ok players make 500k to 5 million.....modeled it after leagues that work like NFL and NHL...and started all over again. It would only take a couple years to get the best players back in the NBA at reasonable rules and salaries.

    Right after the lockout ended Chris Paul started dictating who he would play for and with.....and Stern decided where it was ok for him to play. its a joke!

    That's bullshit. No one can watch an entire Blue Jackets game.
