To be a Knicks fan as college basketball has become not a minor league, more like a medium league where many of the players make more money than even the NBA minimum of 1.15 million. Even a 10 year veteran signed to a minimum makes 3.3 million. The $ is one thing, but the ruling after wanting the players to be compensated went so far in favor of the player and leaving schools in the dust. Annual changes from school with no penalty to the player was the dagger that killed a once great sport. I can't even envision what this trainwreck will look like in 10 years. Watching the Nova Knicks has been a blast. Go NY, go NY go!

Good points but the NBA regular season is basically unwatchable due to the amount of playoff spots available. I know it would never happen but if the NBA cut the playoff qualifiers in half & eliminated the tanking it would thrive. You have to care about winning for the league to be successful.
Tanking is a huge issue. You can’t have 10-12 teams actively not trying to win the
Last three months of the season.
