Is it me, or is pro basketball a fucking bore?

[miles]

Flipping channels tonight and watched about two minutes of a playoff game. The quality of play sucked a big one. Completely different from college ball. When did this happen?

 

[Svedish_Chef]

At least you get to watch it... Here I am watching gamestats live to catch the Lakers Spurs game

 

[nasty]

Don't watch it since Jordan left The Bulls.

Honestly, i cant watch any basketball other than the Celtics, my home town team. Thankfully they're in the playoffs. I havent watched basketball since Larry Bird left the Celts in the early 90's, but i've picked it up now, call me a fairweather fan, i dont care, but basketball is back in Boston, thats the only reason i watch.

what the hell are you talking about? are you saying that college ball is better than the nba?? how?? college players are slow, weak, cant shoot and need 45 seconds to get a shot off compared to the 24 in the nba. its really exciting to watch a college team go 4 corners.

the nba is the best basketball in the WORLD. its the best game in the world. nothing else comes close.

Baseball's better.

 

[HighSchoolJock]

Baseball's better.

how is baseball better. i like baseball but it isnt a better game than basketball. in baseball you can be totally unathletic and still play. look at babe ruth, totally out fo shape and still regarded as one of the greatest baseball players of all time.

 

[amelia]

Baseball's better.

actually...football's better

 

[Eagle70]

Highschooljock is right, it IS the best basketball in the world. BUT, it isnt the greatist sport, thats what Football is for.

And what do i want to think about...? Well Amelia...thats for you to decide...

 

[HighSchoolJock]

actually...football's better

dont even get me started on football. its slow, boring, no one plays it, no one watches it. its not even a sport for christ sakes.

 

[YogiBare]

in baseball you can be totally unathletic and still play. B]

No you can't.

I know, because I tried.

 

[HighSchoolJock]

No you can't.

I know, because I tried.

so youre telling me david wells is an athlete?? john kruk is/was an athlete. cecil fielder athlete or no? you tell me

 

[YogiBare]

actually...football's better

I can never figure out where the ball is.

And I hate all the do-overs.

No no no, see, football is more than sport, its a way of life. Then again, this could all be because i live in the Northeast, where basketball is for fun, but Football is for keeps. Go Pats.

And what do i want to think about...? Well Amelia...thats for you to decide...

awww..we agree about football!! although..you're prob. a pats fan..and i'm a total raiders fan...i guess we can still get along....

 

[HighSchoolJock]

No no no, see, football is more than sport, its a way of life. Then again, this could all be because i live in the Northeast, where basketball is for fun, but Football is for keeps. Go Pats.

football is for keeps. where do you live la la land? football isnt a sport

1. no one plays it
2. its not in the olympics
3.most people laugh at it

whereas basketball is the most popular game in the world.

 

[Eagle70]

Besides, real men play contact sports. Where exactly is the contact in basketball? or Baseball for that matter? (not knocking baseball)

 

[nasty]

actually...football's better

this is true. LOVE baseball, but, football you get people hitting each other.

where is the contact in basketball? gee who would you rather get hit by any man in the nfl with pads on. or karl malone without pads on?

 

[YogiBare]

so youre telling me david wells is an athlete?? john kruk is/was an athlete. cecil fielder athlete or no? you tell me

Odd, you're picking the guys who could have made it as football players.

Actually, they are athletes.

How many guys could walk in out of a bar and pitch a no-hitter in Yankee Stadium?

How many guys could you grab off of an NFL or NBA team who could consistently hit a baseball thrown 90 mph 400 feet?

Deion Saunders couldn't do it. Michael Jordan (the best basketball player ever) couldn't do it.
