Is anyone missing the NBA?

I'm not a fan of the NBA but, from a distance, I do keep up with it, especially once the playoffs begin. But, I haven't seen nearly as many articles about the NBA as I have NFL (draft, of course, was big) and very few 'Man, I miss the NBA' type of articles/blogs/etc. I think the league is still holding out hope that they can have at least a few rounds of playoffs and crown a champion. Maybe I'm not looking in the right places, but just not a ton of news recently, which I'm assuming means not a ton of interest. "The Last Dance" hype has been pretty high but the league itself has seemed very quiet.

Not at all. I try to keep an on Kentucky players, but typically only watch the last 5min (hour) of NBA Finals games. Def miss Cubs and baseball way more than the NBA.

Those that are bored, bass and crappie are hitting. Enjoy nature, not the couch.

No March Madness screwed me up big time. Pretty much over it at this point. They could play reruns of the Reds losing and I wouldn’t know the difference. Really hoping we get football this fall in some way shape or form.

Have to agree with no neutrality and others. As much as I miss sports the hypocrisy of the woke crowd in the NBA is unbearable.

I guess you don't mind the hypocrisy of the masses of right wingers on this board that claim to be conservative but rail against the idea of players being allowed to ply their trade for $ (i.e. capitalism). But chaplains have always been selective in their hypocrisy.

This is when the NBA gets good. Playoffs. And the last few years have gotten considerably better. The league is out of that "let's be friendly" era, and is starting to get back to the 80s/early90's (although still a ways to go). Teams don't like other teams. Players have beefs.

I will admit that NBA regular season is almost a complete throw-away aside from some marquee games.. but April and on, it's great.

Not at all, cant't stand the NBA. Tried watching a playoff game a couple of years ago loaded with former cats and realized how horrible it really is to watch. I think I watched maybe 5 mins if that.

I haven't watched NBA games since the mid 90's. So I'm not missing it. I haven't watched much baseball over the years either. Still be nice to get them both back because of what the games do for the economy but I won't be watching.

Not me, I haven't watched an NBA game since around 2005, just not much to watch anymore.

Hell no.
