I used to watch the NBA for years. But two things happened together. Jordan retired. But the worst was that the NBA started promoting rap “culture”. Stupid. It’s the middle aged white guys who buy the tickets and take their sons to the games, not gang bangers. And the simply horrible officiating is the icing on the shyt cake. Eff the NBA.
That's part of it. But what bothered me more was that they stopped taking the game seriously. They were no longer interested in competition.
