  • 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?

  • Wait, so what did I miscomprehend? Nothing in your 4 paragraphs contradicted anything I said.

  • god you're boring.

    learn to smoke pot or become a serial killer you snore-fest.

  • So any miscomprehension in my post?

    having a discussion is fine as long as you know the other 'person' is still breathing. hawkins is a logical person but i doubt if he was ever called the life of the party.

    lighten up. sometimes when a person lobs a hand grenade at you, you throw it back instead of just diving on it.

  • I could say the same to you, since my original post was half tongue in cheek.

    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.

    water polo has to require some hellacious conditioning.

    Compare say the number of college football games to the number of pro games: usually about 12 vs. 16. So college football has 75% of the number of games that the pros have. Where college basketball on the other hand has about 30 games regular season games...plus limited tournament games.....vs. 82 regular season games for the pros. Almost 3 times as many..plus the NBA playoffs system is bloated with 16 teams playing four rounds of best of 7. In theory...for the champion or runnerup...the playoffs could add as many as an additional 28 games to the schedule (about as many an entire college regular season).

    As to what would be a good amount. Unknown, but possiby 60 some.....but they won't give up that money.

    The Bruins won the Stanley Cup in 2011...and lost in the Finals in 2013.....are you saying you just moved from Boston in like the last year?

  • Thanks Gip

    yeah that was a reach. (should have said relevant to me)

    lived in boston in the late 802 early 90s. cam neely, roy bourque and that crew.

  • Lebron dismantled the Hawks in dominant fashion. It was pretty awesome to watch. I've followed the Cavaliers pretty closely since my time in Kent, that series was impressive. The NBA still isn't the same for me. I grew up watching the Jordan/dream team era but watching the Cav's especially this playoff has been enjoyable. I hope to see a parade in Cleveland soon.

    LOL, it's been so long- I'm not sure we even know how to have one. 🙂

  • Irregardless.. it feels like this is "our year".. What the cavs did was quit magical.. to say the least

    It feel like that to me. Its Our Year but we gotta get one early or it can change fast. I think lebron is very ready just to strap one on and carry this team to victory

    Tonights game as we all know is key in this series.. If we get tonight.. I think mentally this puts a strain on GS and it of course, favors us to win the series. I think the Cavs are also methodically getting into GS's head , just like they did Atlanta. But as we all know.. Nothing comes easy in C-Town.
