Finally the madness is done ... the NBA is back!

Didn't you technically just make Versatile's point? You don't care about the NBA and are posting about it. It seems like at least 90 percent of the comments I have read across the internet regarding the NBA coming back has been negative, so what does it really say about the league?

 

Well, you know, I'd guess that's similar to the percentage of negative comments you would've heard about MLB in 94, the NHL in 04 and even the mighty NFL in 87. Any time there's a labor work stoppage causing a league to lose a significant chunk of the season fans are gonna be pissed, disgusted and vowing to no longer care and never to watch again. But you know what? They eventually get over it---every. single. time.

 

They're going to cram back-to-back-to-back games in. They should do that all along. There's college teams that play that in tournaments and high school teams that will play two games in one day. NBA players are professionals. Three consecutive games on a homestand isn't much to ask.

 

I'm surprised you actually watch the NBA.

If you don't think the quality of the game is compromised by a compressed schedule you're crazy

 

Can you say playoffs?
