    Not Excited?

    The NBA is a stars league and it will be this way forever. You still cannot stop a player from going where he wants to go. LeBron wanted to play with his best friend in Miami where he could go out clubbing and play a round of 18 the day after an occasional home loss. Dwight was going to Brooklyn or Los Angeles regardless of where the Magic traded him. Will you not be watching Lakers and Heat Christmas day? Or a Lakers-Thunder Western Conference Finals? This is what the NBA is supposed to be: stars versus stars.

    Your frustration is referring to the Suns?
    August 10, 2012 11:00 am
    Because they dont spend money like the Lakers, right? They dont make the big trades for talent because they dont have talent to trade in return right? RIGHT! The Market has a lot to do with the Suns sucking too though. But its a self inflicting injury! They dont acquire talent, fans dont buy apparel, or go to games. But in the suns case, fans do buy and go to games. They just suck at acquiring talent. LOL! Doesnt give you a reason to hate. Congradulate, Franz!

    State of the Game....like it or not

    Unfortunately, this is the state of the game and David Stern will lie through his teeth and his dying breath in stating that there is parity and some sort of fairness. This is truly a star's league where mini all-star squad take on each other while smaller market teams sit on the sidelines to watch and cross their fingers for the future. Part of the blame does go to the fans and media because we still follow and watch no matter what. If we really cared about the lack of parity and fairness in this game, we should start ignoring the product that they are trying to shove down our throats...

    NBA has never been this stilted
    August 10, 2012 11:46 am
    Watched BB for a good while and never seen the likes of these superteams forming now. LaL has a starting lineup of Nash--Kobe--MWP---Gasol--Howard. That is crazy. That is four by my count max contracts in a starting five. Competetive balance my arse. There is a handful of teams in the league that are beasts and then there is everyone else. Gives people a good reason to just forget about BB, I mean IT's FIXED. Why watch? 1st game of the season and I can tell you MIA + LAL WILL Be in the finals. Sorry to spoil it but if you are not from Mia or LAL your team is going to lose.

    Like it or not, this has been the NBA for a long time, and there isnt a quick fix. Teams must learn to adapt and play within their means. Thunder and Spurs are a prime example. Sure luck is involved, but they build their core and develop the talent around it. Do you think if the Magic had been able to surround dwight with true talent that won that he would have wanted to leave? heck no. he wanted to leave because the organization is a joke. teams that can build and develop talent will be successful. others will flounder in mediocrity.
