okay
It is and the ratings will show.
It'll draw better than last year because pandemics happen only once every 100 years. Not to mention the social justice push on top of a pandemic, people's attention was on more important topics than a ball.
Nobody's watching this shyt and it doesn't matter what NBA fans tell themselves. There's no "changing of the guard". The teams there are only there due to injury and one of them is injured.
But I get how the randomness is cool, esp if you feel like small markets darlings get screwed most of the time. This ain't the Hallmark channel though so nobody gives a fukk about feel good stories or your feelings. People want to see the best go at it if they're going to commit time to sitting down and watching, this ain't that, it's just the best of who's healthy enough rn.
