The Voice of Reason
I'm not here to troll or stasrt a big show, I honestly want to understand
When I was young I used to laugh at old guys who trashed the NBA, saying stupid stuff like they only tried in the last 2 minutes etc. I thought they were idiots for missing out on the greatest athletes in the world.
But now I find myself as one of those old guys but for different reasons. While I still believe they are the best athletes in the world there is absolutely no reason to follow a league where the finish is all but pre-determined. I mean it may as well be pro wrestling.
Still struggling to understand why a fan of the Blazers or Raptors has a reason to believe his team has any chance at competing for a title. Every year that list consists of 2-4 teams, this year it's more like 2. Why in the world would I care who won between Atlanta and Boston? It means absolutely nothing, neither has a chance. And those are 2 decent teams.
