Message: [QUOTE="M2MPrinciples, post: 5287874, member: 928"] The NBA as a TV entity has lots of issues: — Partnered talking heads' overemphasis on gossip over actual play and constant sh***ing on great players — Playoff bloat — Meaningless regular season (hand-in-hand with above) — Playoffs turn into a referendum on the MVP — Nightly uncertainty about stars' playing status — Playoffs are an injury lottery — Players don't care about the ASG I've also noticed that there doesn't seem to be any consistency on when games start. I’ll tune into a national game at 6 and sometimes it'll start at 6:05 and other times not till 6:15 with no explanation. By then I’ve switched to something else. No other televised sport seems to have this problem; I'm shocked that advertisers put up with it. And that’s before the actual on-court play with teams taking half their shots from three, triple-doubles losing significance, etc. [/QUOTE]
