I like how they threatened to start fining guys who were caught flopping a few years ago. They only fined a few bench players, usually in situations that didn't even warrent it, ignored the stars when they did it, and then completely forgot they made up the rule to begin with.

The problem has only gotten progressively worse, since they introduced that toothless policy.

Nope, don't watch. Quit watching sometime in the mid-to-late 1980s. My dad (who is 86 now) referred to the NBA as the "push-shove-and shoot" league. That about sums it up for me...

I'm a Cavs fan (less so than the Indians and the Browns) and I think I watched 2 Cavs regular season games all year. I've watched a couple playoff games, and last night's Game 1, but I can't stand the NBA. It's no longer basketball. It's street ball. They don't play defense, they travel more than flight attendant, and the players are the most entitled brats in the world. Only reason I'm watching The Finals is the economic impact it would have on Cleveland if the Cavs win again, and I hate Golden State more than a lot of things in this world.

First NBA watching of the year was game one. First half then went to bed. Saw the only basketball worth watching the whole year. I love to play, and would love to watch ,but the product on tv right now is not great

Haven't watched a second this year.
My son on the other hand devours it.

Unfortunately, the NFL is getting there as well.

I used to be a big fan, but stopped watching after the 2002 Lakers vs Kings series.

It looks like the Cavs are about to get swept - uh oh! I wonder what LeBron will do during the off-season? Maybe he will convince Curry and Durant to join the Lakers with him. Haw haw haw
