O/T what happened to the NBA? Bad Marketing?

Posted By: Shawn Chambers

For me, the NBA (as well as professional football) has always bored me because of the endless "hotdogging". I'll watch an NBA game and the most routine shot (not even under pressure) warrants backpedaling, hi-fiving, chest thumping, ass grabbing, etc. Every 3 yard gain on the gridiron or layup on the courts becomes the end of the world.

At least in baseball (with a few exceptions), the play on the field is classier. A homerun might warrant the occasional fist pump, but I'd rather see it and the handshake at third base followed by some dugout celebration than this taking place on the field.

Parenthetically,

Shawn
