yup - it’s all those factors and probably getting a bit older and just not wanting to prioritize time on it too. the product is very bland, and all the factors you mentioned contribute. and this isn’t to say there isn’t a ton of exceptional young talent in the league, but the overall product is just straight up boring. I find such little value in watching a December 2nd regular season game of 82 these days. Even the playoffs will hit and it’ll be 50% blow outs. Zach Lavine getting paid 43 mil to play like this, I just can’t value my time on this shyt anymoreI feel the same way. I was just talking about this. NBA game is basically who can shoot the best since every team plays the exact same way. I remember when teams had differing styles, 8 seconds or less Suns, defensive minded pistons, lakers having a SG-C duo, spurs methodical offense. also the load management, players sitting out back to backs just to rest turned me off.
They've been a step or two behind all game.they are...showing some heart
Point of EMPHASIS!!!!It's been like 50 travel calls in this game.
