Sour grapes?
Jordan was the only reason I ever watched roundball.

Golden age of basketball. Bird, Magic and Jordan. Now it's a bunch of thugs playing ball. We have to remember basketball was still a niche sport back in the '70s. It wasn't straight mainstream yet.

Now I think it has lost its popularity with mainstream America. It will become a niche sport in urban areas. With the exploding Hispanic population in USA, we will probably have more people watching English Premier League than NBA in a decade or two.

Same here. And I quit watching shortly after he retired for the second time.

Not me. Well, actually I enjoyed it when Rodman pushed Pippen in the playoff and got their asses kicked by the Pistons.
