[jjgold]

[carolinakid]

yes....I watch last 2 minutes now if a close game

Baseball still ok as is hockey

[pologq]

different atmosphere inside the bubble. no pussy so they have more energy.

[IBetYou]

Alvin Gentry is the worst coach in the league. D'Antoni taught him everything he knew about defense but not offense.

[jonal]

shut up and paint

[carolinakid]

with so many pts in basketball and the nfl is boring to me, but this is what today games are, all the money they paying these babies they got to kept fans in the seats or watching........

[stevenash]

I'm going to pay attention to some of these games today with an open mind.
I'll post my thoughts later tonight, but from what I've seen the past week the product is worse than a JV High School game.

I'm on the Lakers/Houston UNDER.

Some players out, but if they don't play D, then the backups can run it up anyway.

[carolinakid]

heck with so much action going i have no desire to even look at the nba lines, must less bet it....

Coach, you're right. Why try?

[KVB]

It's got all the feel of March Madness or the Bowl Season. One game after the next all day long, across sports. Including a playoff, the best in the NHL.

Ideal for following the money.

Even with all that time off, I'm not sure I was quite ready for this blitz....lol.

[hostile takeover]

People are actually watching the nba?

[jjgold]

People are actually watching the nba?

no more

[carolinakid]

at least it give the home boys something to do, before they go out protesting and tearing up our country i guess.

[KVB]

I'm not really watching, but I'm betting it.

Not much seems too different market wise from where we left off pre Kung Flu.

At least from my contrarian vantage point.

[SamsNCharge99]

Jj back to not watching

[pablo222]

What a disgrace

All dunks, layups and no defense

Is it any wonder the Lakers have lockerroom issues? They put no value on character. Bunch of children.

OK, after paying attention to three games earlier this is my opinion.

Todays NBA game is horseshit compared to the NBA game I grew up as a kid watching Larry Bird and Magic play.

For openers there’s no such thing as defense anymore, there’s no more set plays anymore, the offense now is chucking up 60 three point attempts.
Which is boring basketball.
I don’t want to see one player hoisting up a three point try while his other four teammates on the floor watch with thumbs up their ass.

Another thing, the Lakers aren’t winning any rings either.
They can’t make threes and they can’t defend the three point shot, especially without a perimeter defender like Avery Bradley on the bench.

[DrunkHorseplayer]

The players won't admit it publicly but they all know that this isn't a real title, thus the lack of intensity.

[flyingillini]

The bubble makes the game more fair. I love the bubble.

HELLO!!!

NBA trying to sell an offensive product.. Good for ratings.. Defense doesn't sell.. They enforced the hand check rule and promoted the 3 point line shooting years ago.. Big men in the paint obsolete now..

It's a new ball game fellas.. Adapt and bet accordingly... BLM!!!

Yeah I’ve adapted and as long as the overs keep going over and keep on making me pocket change I’ll keep betting the overs.

Doesn’t mean I have to like the product though.

I’m not buying the locker room issues. Lebron runs that team and hand picked his boys, who he knows he can keep in check. The Lakers are in chill mode. They’ve already clinched the top spot, so they are going to shut it down until the playoffs start in 10 days. I’d be surprised if we see much of LBJ and Davis until the playoffs. I’ve faded them the last 2 games for profit. Once the playoffs start, they’ll probably sweep a couple of teams,

[clockwise1965]

It's a pick up game with pro jerseys on. Joke!

[JIBBBY]

The product kinda sucks today.. I agree. Miss the hard nose basketball play of the old days!!!.

Still can bet on it today. Barely watchable. I'm a life long NBA fan also, find myself tuning out after 10 minutes or so these days.. Doesn't have to do with the BLM crap either.. Just losing interest.. Players are pampered, soft and just a garbage product now, 3 point shooting and no D..

I miss the show time Lakers of the 80's, Kobe and Shaq of 90's, the Michael Jordan and Chicago Bulls years. Old school Celtics also..

If I can still bet this garbage and win though I'm in.

NBA betting is up and down day to day now with this Corona bubble crap.. Dogs hit then favorites hit day to day.. Crazy!!! Tough to get grip Stevie...

Clippers and Lakers will be lockdown defensively in the playoffs. These guys can play. Rest of the teams in the West? Swerve.

We see see if scores lower playoffs

[manny24]

jump shots and limp wrists

[stake1]

Bubble boys playing like chumps

[jjgold]

Jump shots are called lazy basketball, many players do not want to put any effort in to score and jump shots are the answer no effort
