Seriously.
Yeah the NBA is boring because there's two good teams, as if having no good teams is any better.
I don't know I thought our team was very entertaining and fun to watch this year
I don't think this is honestly is a great Thread as we are a hockey forum and bashing another sports league isn't really great material for a thread.
One thing I never got about so many people here on hf is if you hate the game and find it boring why bother. I felt the same way about the NFL and NBA used to huge into those leagues now the NHL and a little EPL is all I watch sportswise.
Some people think utter domination is fun to watch others like myself find close games more fun. Entertainment is not quantifiable.
And before you say NBA ratings we know why the NHL doesn't compete and that is the fact it's a winter sport it's expensive it's hard to find a place to play the stars even if on the level of Durant or Lebron level dominance aren't very charismatic etc. Go and name one other winter sport that has a draw outside the olympics besides figure skating I will wait.
The NHL will never compete with any of the major sports leagues in NA and what is wrong with that?! I mean as long as the league is increasing in fans it's fine if we don't draw big.
When was popularity the benchmark for quality?
I am just tired of threads that whine about the sport or have an excessive focus on tv ratings especiallly for a sport driven by gate revenue.
