Anyone who thinks this is boring is wrapped up in their nostalgia.

Last night’s Jazz-Knicks game was a good example of how the NBA game is different. Jazz started out stone-cold, got down, looked like a loss in process.
Then they cranked up the D in the second half, started knocking down shots, and got the win.
The difference with the NBA game & college is a little like explaining basketball to soccer fans - game of ebb & flow, strategy, matchups, schemes to get the right matchup, etc.
High-speed chess.
I can enjoy highlights just fine. I just can’t watch a whole game.
edit: one of the highlights is a good defensive stop from James Harden which is funny because his playing style is my exact beef with the strategy of playing for and-ones. Ho-hum.
These are my two biggest gripes for NBA. It definitely isn’t about a lack of talent. The athletes themselves are incredible. But, officiating has made it nearly unwatchable.
I will shut down to watch one team, and mostly one player on that one team. Otherwise, eh…
Clearly, I am in the minority. Shock. lol
I like to pound beers in the off season.
Here’s a good video.
Lol.
