So I went to my first Bobcat game in new arena

what exactly do you not like about it?

 

That, for the most part, it has become a one on one league with very little teamwork and passing. Chucking up shots seemingly at random is a little annoying too. Not a big fan of the banging and mugging down low either. Mostly though I HATE what the NBA is doing to the college game.

I think that this is going to get better over the next few years with the new age limit. I still would have prefered to see them put in an agreement like baseball has though.

College is a better place to teach basketball than the pros.

 

Isn't Kobe Bryant averaging 35 shots a game, and they are talking about how he has risen to become one of the best players in the league. If you shoot 35 shots a game, let's hope to god you can average at least 25. He scored 46 points on 14 of 38 shooting and somehow had a good night. That's why the NBA sucks right there.

 

The entertainment aspect is more important than the sport in the NBA. The fact that they don't call traveling so that there can be more impressive dunks or palming so that there can be sweet crossovers says all you need to know about that. Any basketball purist should hate the NBA.

 

I agree. The best thing about our game experience was being down low and near center court.

 

See, I don't buy that.

The last 3 championships have been won by "team" teams - Spurs and Pistons. Last year a little white dude who passed a lot won MVP.

yeah, there are some glory hogs, but right now it's just got a bad rep.

And as for NBA ruining the college game? Once again, crap. You get a handful of high school kids entering the league yearly, and quite a few end up being quite good - kobe, lebron, tmac, garnett, j oneal, etc etc etc.

 

t mac and oneal both took a couple of years to get good. Lebron is the only one who really excelled his first year out of HS.
