      There are only 4 major league sports....and only 3 in Cleveland. Why should we not welcome one in any of those sports?

      I can see something like indoor soccer being called Retarded....or Arena League football, but not one of the Big 4.

          I would most definitely welcome it. I guess I just like football 1,000,000 X more than BBall

            I don't have the emotional connection to the sport of basketball itself compared to football. Especially the transformation of the league under stern and how players are today vs the 80's and 90's. That said, I still love the Cavs and any championship for Cleveland is a point of pride.

              I love the Cavs! When I lived in Cleveland I used to go to the games. LeBron is doing a wonderful job as coach and player. Kyrie is awesome and they are so much fun to watch. They needed a few days rest because of injuries but good luck!

              The season is too long and someday they might just revamp the schedule. Then maybe the players will have a better chance surviving close to a hundred games. In the meantime GO CAVS!

              DAMN THE TORPEDOES! FULL SPEED AHEAD!

                A. I think Blatt actually does a better job than most people give him credit for....though, yes, on a few occasions he makes gaffes.

                B. They won't reduce the season because they won't reduce their pay. It is all about the money. Never suggest to these owners and players that they should take less money in order to preserve the integrity of the game. They won't want to hear it.

                    Someone educate me because I am not a basketball guy at all, why is the common thought that there are too many games? What do people think is a good amount of games?

                      good question.

                      considering it is an up and down sport as far as running is concerned players must think about lasting the season. IMO soccer players are the best conditioned athletes in the world (although i could give a shit about the sport) because it's like a marathon run with no breaks (hardly).

                      then look at a basketball season compared to a soccer season.

                        Joe frequently attends Cavs games- I didn't see him- but little doubt it was him. He's pretty big pals with LeBron.

                        BTW, another epic performance Sunday by LBJ.

                        Mr. Blatt- please sit Kyrie for the rest of the series- the Hawks aren't wining 4 straight. Going to need a healthy Irving against the Warriors- unless you think Le Bron can put up 50 every game.

                          First, I would say MMA are the best conditioned. Running is tiring, but flexing your body to give shots and take shots is on another level (I used to wrestle and that was the hardest sport I ever played).

                          But regardless I do agree that soccer is harder than basketball. From what I can tell, an MLS season is 34 games. So wouldn't that be in line with what you're saying? Can't tell if you agree the NBA season is too long or just right.

                            82 in the NBA but like i said they don't run as much as MLS. i think the NBA season is just right. both coaches and players now know when to rest during the season.

                            MMA fighters are tough as hell but besides the ring i would think other athletes out do them in every facet except dwarfism and cauliflower ears.

                              I agree. The NBA of today is by far my least favorite big 4 sport. Back in the 80's the NBA was much better IMO. Now it is almost always a 3-point try or a dunk. Not a whole lot of thinking going on.

                              But I do root for the Cavs, only because they play in Cleveland. If Cleveland didn't have a NBA team, I would never watch a NBA game

                                i know a lot of people who hate it because it's dominated by black athletes. to that i say go watch nascar.

                                what game each of us leans towards i guess would be what each of us consider exciting.

                                lived in boston when the bruins were last relevant and went to many a game right behind their bench.......

                                still think it blows. and baseball?? GTFO.

                                  They hate it because it's dominated by black athletes, really? Between this and Gip's "lots of people only want the SEC to be good to make up for the Civil War" bit, I really wonder who you guys are hanging out with.

                                    i think your problem is with reading comprehension.

                                    yes a lot of people i know from the past to the present don't like basketball because it's dominated by black athletes, yet they love hockey because it's still a 'white' man's game. obviously they don't have a hand in the game now and by most people's account it's backwards thinking. but it still exists. there's no talk of knicks basketball right now but the rangers well..

                                    forgot all you 22 year olds are immune to such nonsense. glad you have it all figured out.

                                    so how is isis and global warming doing on your plate?
