Is the NBA even worth watching anymore?


Recommended Posts

Personally I could care less if the NBA folded. It wouldn`t hurt my feelings one bit. It has evolved into more of a WWF type of production full of hype and showmanship. This isn`t the same NBA I grew up watching. There are no "teams" anymore. There are only high paid stars. Plus the rules have also evolved. I`d rather see a player bust his butt and make a good defensive effort. Do they even call a charge anymore? Plus there is far too much pushing allowed. Whatever happened to moving your feet and gaining defensive position? I guess that went out with the charge. I live about an houe from the Grizzlies and frankly I could care less to go watch any team play there. College basketball is where it`s at. It by far is better to watch than the NBA.

Agreed. The NBA regular season is like watching an expanded game of horse. I haven't watched since Stockton-Malone closed shop. Wonder why the points-per-game totals drop about 25 points when playoffs start?

The NBA has changed a lot this year, for the better.

    • Yes this process is moving slower than I would have expected
    • also was told coady auston applied, he served as defensive coordinator for greenfield under don pitt several years ago before going to Obion county  
    • TSSAA restrictions for hiring non-faculty coaches have been removed for over a year at this point. In the past a non-faculty person had to be "grandfathered" by being an assistant coach for five years, being fingerprinted, and having a background check run per TSSAA rules... since those were rescinded, the board of directors for the school district are responsible for any/all restrictions on hiring non-faculty personnel. I guess what I'm saying to you is that if you really wanted what you posted, it's already possible as long as your local BOE will allow for it.
    • stop it, rlh. you’re gonna get me all misty eyed and sentimental.    i see seven fairly regularly. ….but slim shady, that’s like spotting bigfoot on main street. you just hope he doesn’t spot you. 
    • Are you trying to say you didn't find Seven and ShadySlim going at it?
