You call this a product? You call this entertainment?

This is pure trash.

I don't know exactly what's going on... but this sh## needs to change.

How would you like it to be mr money shot? More road wins? How would that be a better experience? Sounds like its a great league where anyone can beat anyone if all they need is homecourt.

**agendaman** · 01-19-23, 05:32 AM

so just bet the home team ml all the time.

I don't think it's ever been like this... in the history of the NBA. Something is definitely wrong.... either the coaching... the players... or the entire product.

If you can't win at the other team's gym... start rapping on tiktok. You have issues. Home court shouldn't be this dominant.

If you think thats bad dont look at college basketball teams home/away records

I understand the college thing... that's always been that way. But these NBA players are professional. Shouldn't make one difference where the game is being played. It's almost like the NBA is telling the AWAY team to lay down.

32 Teams in the NHL

18 Teams Are Above .500 On The Road

Doesn't make sense.

This. NCAAB even more so. The question is at some point it will even out, when will that be?

Yep

**DrunkHorseplayer** · 01-19-23, 03:01 PM

In 1985/86, only four out of 23 NBA teams had winning records on the road. I didn't look up any other years because I don't want to waste my time but I strongly suspect that those numbers aren't unusual.

**lakerboy** · 01-19-23, 03:05 PM

Sightlines. The end.

wonder if the OT rules help with that some. like the home team is just happy getting a point so the better away team steals a win.

**Pete0** · 01-19-23, 04:51 PM

I simply never understood "home" court/ field advantage.

arent all courts/ fields standardized ?

does simply because one plays at "home"..
(even tho any player say making 10 mil/yr in a idaho team can at any moment be offered a contract to play in say LA for 100 mil/yr)
how does this simply make them play better ?

why are home records almost 100% better than road ?
is this basically psychological advantage becuz of crowd - likely being from the same city (because easier travel distance), cheering for u & boo ing the other one

**stevenash** · 01-19-23, 04:54 PM

^
LB said it, a big part of it is the sightlines, different in all arenas.

**Pete0** · 01-19-23, 05:29 PM

i see.

for example . look at today's game . - GS @ BOS

GS away is 5-17 . BOS home is 17-5 .

spread is -6.5

GS already beat them at home. now they're @ BOS . although jaylen brown is out.

**jtoler** · 01-19-23, 05:46 PM

You should know history if youre gonna complain. In 1985 there were only 4 teams with a winning road record. Who would want a league or sport where most teams have a winning road record. Right now in hockey with 32 teams 20 of them are .500 and above on the road. That alone will guarantee less fan attendance because no fan wants come see their team when there's a great chance theyre gonna lose.

**Thefix13** · 01-19-23, 05:50 PM

Probably helps that these guys are taking every other game off for "rest". The NBA is a total garbage product at this point. Half the teams are trying to tank and the other half know that none of these regular season games matter. Hover around .500 and you make the playoffs and then you might actually care. Forget the fans that go there hoping to see their favorite "stars" paying through the nose for crappy food amongst other things.

lol I only read opening post and remarked didnt see this post unreal. For some reason seems we both thought to type 1985 in google, weird.

**TheMoneyShot** · 01-19-23, 06:09 PM

^ Why is everyone talking about 1985? I looked at the calendar and it says 2023. What does it even matter what happened 40 years ago? sweet jesus.

**DrunkHorseplayer** · 01-19-23, 06:22 PM

As I said in my previous post, I suspect that the poor road records in the NBA are commonplace and not a fluke.

In 1995/96, nine out of 29 teams had winning records on the road; four of them were one game over .500.

Yes this is normal. NBA teams generally suck on the road with a few good teams that do decent.

Warriors are 5-18 on the road.

**stevenash** · 01-19-23, 11:00 PM

GSW holds the best single season road record.
34-7, 2014/15

**jjgold** · 01-19-23, 11:06 PM

Booker rarely plays anymore

**Thrilla** · 01-19-23, 11:08 PM

They have adopted the MLS model. The league can make the most money if home teams are having succes.

**play4win** · 01-19-23, 11:54 PM

i already told you nba is going more degenerate than already was. 3 last mvp were euro bum players. 1 is a fake euro but still a euro player. that nba commissioner is the worst ever. but yet bum people and corporations support. china suppose hate usa but yet they pump all that sweatshop money to nba.

maybe thats why the last 3 mvp were euros.

**play4win** · 01-20-23, 12:01 AM

and also who are current top scorers. that euro bum donsic and 1 injury prone bum african embbid. is it coincidence? behind the scene people have a lot a say in that. it looks like it. embiid couldnt be more injury prone than every injury prone nba players combined but yet he scores 33 points per game now.

he now 2nd after that overrated bum. you cant make this shiet up. fake globalization krap.

**texhooper** · 01-20-23, 01:08 AM

Nobody on this site actually pays attention to or bets the NBA yet everyone wants to bitch about it all the time

sight lines, travel, sleep. have you never taken a trip out of town? its draining. sleeping in your own bed and your day being normal is a solid advantage.
