I grew up loving both NBA and college basketball. Watched as many games as I could, playoff time I wouldn't leave the TV. I hate to sound like a "back in my day" trope, but the product now is borderline unwatchable between officiating and flopping. Add in the not at all subtle gambling ties and the Aspiration scandal, and the integrity of the game is compromised. It should be an outstanding product when players today are so talented, bigs like Jokic and Wemby are ridiculously entertaining. Adam Silver is tanking both the on-the-floor product and the credibility of the results. 

Silver is is so terrible he’s “turrible”

I know there’s an a lot of anti-New York City bias in the world (not really sure why) but for me, when the Knicks and OG Anunoby beat Floppy McFlopperson and Oklahoma City in the finals I’m gonna be one really happy guy.

Fine with them making the Finals and good for OG because the Cavs with Harden are no more likable than they are. But if they’re playing OKC no matter who wins we all lose.

I’ll root for OG, but in no way can I root for the Knicks. Grew up going to those Knicks/Pacers playoffs games. I wouldn’t root for them if my kid was starting PG.

All because John Starks pissed you off 30 years ago?

Damn, that’s some impressive work by Starks.

Nah…Starks is a fat crybaby. More about their dipshit sports writers and them constantly fellating “NYC basketball.” There’s nothing in sports more overrated than NYC basketball. Nothing. And their dumbass fans. Chief among them Spike Lee. Maybe when that midget dies, I’ll reconsider.

Back in December I flew out to Vegas. The Knicks were playing the Spurs for the NBA Cup that night. The flight from Chicago to LV was half Knicks fans and was as insufferable as one might expect.

Lets hope that OKC doesn't even get that far. They probably will, but their brand of "basketball " is so unwatchable. I'm a longtime Spurs hater but would buy a Wemby jersey if they can win this series.
