Viejo Dinosaur Posted December 31, 2016 Report Share Posted December 31, 2016 how so if stats say it gives you a better shot at winning?Of course it gives you a better shot at winning....

joeybagadonuts Posted December 31, 2016 Report Share Posted December 31, 2016 You realize your Warriors are the reason Chuck is saying this, right? He hates GS and the way they play. He hates the emphasis on 3 pt shooting. His complaint has nothing to do with the refs or the quality of players.Of course I do. Well aware of his hatred of the Warriors and his claims about how jump shooting teams can't win, blah blah blah. I agree with him but for different reasons.

Guest ChrisHarvard Posted December 31, 2016 Report Share Posted December 31, 2016 I was listening to country music today and the DJ chick said "guess the sport people drink the most beer watching....it's football! YAY football YAAAAY! Of course it's football! Not even a boatboatboat loader of gamblers like basketball or the NBA. We are few and far between. I think all of us that played in h/s or college will always watch no matter what. I love the NBA, personally. Majority don't. Walk in to a bar and poll the whole freakin place to name just 5 NBA coaches, 5 players on 5 different teams. They couldnt do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
housepicks Posted December 31, 2016 Report Share Posted December 31, 2016 Havnt watched one game this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
housepicks Posted December 31, 2016 Report Share Posted December 31, 2016 I'll start watching again when they start calling traveling. Dribbling is just an option these days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ChrisHarvard Posted December 31, 2016 Report Share Posted December 31, 2016 What do you guys think about the studio shows that Ernie, Charles, the Jet and Shaq do? i think it's the best show on television. Those guys roll over any ESPN bullcrap. the good news is we have it until minimum 2020, maybe even 2025. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gabe Posted December 31, 2016 Report Share Posted December 31, 2016 By far the best show Harvard. Im personally tired of the sugarcoated espn shows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NBA tv ratings say otherwise An NBA franchise is probably the #1 sports franchise to own in America right now, if you are thinking longterm. NFL obv more valuable right now but there are legitimate concerns over NFL's longterm viability. Ratings starting to dip a bit (could simply be because of preference to political debates/shows in election year, likely this, or could be slight decline in interest), youth numbers i believe are down and id guess they continue to go down. And fact is if kids dont grow up playing the sport they are much less likely to grow up diehard fans. You speak like the NBA is struggling. Those $30 M per year contracts guys like Mike Conley are getting say otherwise. All you need to do to gauge how well a sport is doing is look at the contracts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Banger Posted December 31, 2016 Report Share Posted December 31, 2016 It's all about the refs and super stars and the calls the give them. That's why they win more often. And I'd love to see a NCAA ref a NBA game lol I'll guess the total travel calls would be set at 23.5. NBA is a joke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deemer Posted December 31, 2016 Report Share Posted December 31, 2016 Best sport there is. People that dislike the NBA don't understand he game. Of course there are only maybe 6 teams that can win it all. So what? Same in NFL. The young stars are must watch. Giannis, Russell, AD, even Boogie/KAT. I'd much rather watch a NBA game than fucking NCAA basketball where the guys can't make jumpers. As for the refs, wtf? They don't dictate any more game than other sports. NBA is must watch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WMtribe17 Posted December 31, 2016 Report Share Posted December 31, 2016 Of course it gives you a better shot at winning.... I like the three in college but for some strange reason I don't like it in the pros.... In college it gives the chance for a mid-major team with all shooters to compete against the much bigger and athletic powerhouse teams, especially when it is a 1 game winner advances. In the NBA, it isn't as entertaining because many NBA teams seem to not give a shit for most of the season. Then when the playoffs come it doesn't mean all that much if a team gets an upset win by hitting a ton of 3s. Who cares if the Warriors play the ____(insert 8 seed) and the 8 seed wins 1 game because they hit 20 3s but loses the next 4 because it is unrealistic to continue to hit that many 3s. The NBA has always been the one sport I cannot watch because it seems like 90% of the players are disinterested in the outcome of the game and only seem like they begin trying when the playoffs start.

Joe Blow Posted December 31, 2016 Report Share Posted December 31, 2016 What do you guys think about the studio shows that Ernie, Charles, the Jet and Shaq do? I enjoy watching them more than the game. NBA gets good at the start of the 2nd round of the playoffs.Not great but good We are all just waiting for another Cavs/Warriors final. That can't be good for the league Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
