    Watching from beginning to end? I would rather shoot myself in the head.

    Nba games don’t matter till 4th quarter, I will occasionally watch the last 5-10 minutes of a game.

    The product itself stinks, I’m not sure how the league interest keeps going up.

    Bet it, don't watch it anymore. I'll sometimes tune into INSIDE THE NBA with Chuck and Shaq though.

    I check in a Few times when a game im interested in,Then i will watch most of the 4th quarter. I live in North Central Iowa were in the dead of winter, NBA and Nhl gets me thru the winter.Im watching less Nhl too full games too.Only sport i stopped was Nascar,I still watch the lower series but Nascar i stopped because i hate todays drivers Bubba Smolett causing Kyle Larson too crash and act like a thug was the last straw!

    defense has gone away. only certain teams have defensive pride now.

    i also just don't like watching most sports now unless it is a big game.

    Ghetto ball these days. Flash and 3's. You need to get a life is you watch the NBA. It's a garbage product now.

    I'm a Laker fan since the crib and it's just painful to watch Lebron and the Lakers now. All that BLM crap turned me off also during the lock downs with the NBA last year. WOKE!

    The scores are higher because the players are actually better offensively than they were during the 90's. I still watch and follow the NBA but college ball is more my thing.

    best way. no need to go thru the highs and lows of the game. all that matters is the score when it says FINAL.

    If you watch it regularly you will lower your IQ by 10 points.

    It’s tough to watch because guys don’t give a damn. I catch the highlights and watch the 4th quarter if I have a bet in.

    Summer League a great event in Las Vegas. Pretty competitive and guys care.

    First month of the season. After that, just when I've got money on it or there's some intrigue about it. Typically don't watch full games -merely need to get a feel for what the offense is doing (usually great!) and what the defense is doing (usually not so great!).

    watched the nuggets wolves 47 fouls most of them on defense for doing absolutely nothing...that was as brutal a game as i have watched in many years

    who wants to watch that shot. they have to let the guys play some semblance of defense. it was unreal what they were calling defensive fouls\

    19 fouls in the 3rd quarter. you'd have more fun getting your teeth cleaned.

    no surprise the nuggets got the majority of fouls, despite joker whining about this and that

    terrible.
