Just have to watch the last two minutes of a game to see who won.

Which takes 30 minutes to play.

Actually all you need to do is look at the final score and sparing yourself even the last 2 minutes

That’s always been an issue for basketball. Constant flow of play and high scoring makes only the end of the game really dramatic (on occasion).

At this point, they only exist for the gambling interests. Same with MLB going with a casino company to broadcast their games on a high pay channel (Bally). Neither cares a whit about the fans anymore. It’s all just money now.

IMO, the MBA died when Michael Jordan retired. It was all basketball and no politics then.

The last 2 minutes of a close NBA game will take 30 minutes plus to complete. At least that used to be the way it was when I last watched back in 2000.

If it’s really that important, you can just look up the score in the morning.

I don’t even do that anymore.

I won’t watch the last two seconds of an NBA game, much less the last two minutes.

If you care who won, just check on the internet the next day. I'm really not sure why anyone would care.
