From someone who isn’t from the states I have to say I love basketball but the amount of advertisements and breaks in the nba is insane. It’s just a money making scheme at this point, entertainment and the game comes second
-
First of all: the atmosphere isn’t the same without the playoff and finals logos on the court.
-
The nba overall is pure trash now. In season tourney champ banners? Play-in round? No defense? All star games not even competitive ball no more? Yeaaaaa count me tf out bruh
-
What people often forget is that injuries ruined the blazers dynasty in the 70s. They were 50-10 before Walton went down, he still won the MVP, and the blazers were still the 1 seed. I swear man our big men are cursed 😭
-
if you're asking a mega corporation like the nba to stop the over monetization than i have bad news for you
-
We haven’t had a great 7 Game Series NBA Finals since 2016, the dynasty era is dead, media refuses to talk about the next generation of basketball and is squeezing every last drop of the LeBron, Curry and KD era.
-
Having 6 teams in the last 6 years doesn't make the NBA boring. Some might say that fact would make it more exciting. The biggest problems in the modern NBA is too much emphasis on the 3, traveling, too many uncalled for fouls (for barely touching the opponent) and too many commercials
-
the awful nike jerseys and phasing out white uniforms being the home defaults is also an aesthetic issue to the game
-
"[Auerbach] literally leveraged the racism of St. Louis in the '50s into helping a Civil Rights Leader become the winningest player in NBA History." fucking lmao
-
A two hour Rusty Buckets video? We are eating good tonight.
-
You're missing the bigger point. People are caring about the NBA less in general. Season too long with lots of meaningless games. Not much defense being played.
-
The ad breaks are bananas. I don't know if Americans realise just how many ads they ingest during a game of basketball or NFL. I'm starting to think that adds to the exhaustion that you may feel towards the end of these marathons.
-
Krause didn’t draft Jordan. That was Rod Thorn under previous ownership. Jerry Reinsdorf bought the team during Jordan’s rookie year and hired Krause.
-
I agree with the other years finals being boring but anybody who thought the 2021 finals were boring don't love basketball
-
Buckets, this is the type of analysis we will never see on network TV again. Salute to your entire team. Hell of a video.
-
Jayson Tatum and Luka are not considered faces of the league. THAT is the problem
-
wilt had the talent to do literally anything he wanted on a basketball court, the problem is just that he played in an era where people didn't know exactly what the best thing to do on a basketball court was.
-
1 thing I have to point out. There were a LOT of blowouts this postseason. The conference Finals were painful to watch. It’s not a choose one or the other scenario:2024 or 2016. My favorite post season in would be the 2019 postseason as it was full of moments, games 7s and a new champion out of nowhere.

Unfortunately, we are in a generation where the people running the Basketball care more about profit over product. If the NBA wants to improve its image, it starts by getting rid of ESPN. this move would be short term loss; long term gain.
