NBA/Basketball Thread

Agree completely. Plus Duke had already tried to win the Kentucky one-and-done way, and has been reaping what it sowed.

With one and dones, the transfer portal, and NIL, college football and hoops are sadly unwatchable in my view.

That’s why I’m fortunate to be a Chicago Bears fan.

What’s up with this new trend of horrible colour schemes on NbA courts!! The Timberwolves have various eyesore shades of lime green. Ugh!!

NBA started an in-season cup, modeled a bit like the FA cup (as an idea, not really the same in practice). The weird color scheme is to let the viewer know it’s a cup game. Every Tuesday and Friday or something like that for a block of time in early season are ‘cup games’. It still counts as regular season game, but also as a cup game. Each team is in a division (nobody really remembers which team is in a division with whom), highest point total from division gets to play in quarter finals, then semi finals and finals are a weekend event in Las Vegas.

Has the NBA been taken over by FIFA?

That is the only logical explanation.

Just heard an NBA coach say he has to “managise” court time for a player :roll_eyes:
