Boycotting watching NBA Playoffs

[Stifle Tower]

.....they are also prima donnas...they just don't get paid for it! Oh, wait! Some of them DO get paid for it!

I thought cctrackster meant pre-madonna. I was going to go with Cher on that one. She had quite the reputation for dressing sluttily before Madonna started her career.

 

[pkmag2]

Hell no. Wife and kids are currently hooked on it too!

I wonder if the Heat/Bucks we will be one of the most lop sided 4 game series. I wonder which series is? I'm talking point difference over 4 games. Or 3 games back in the 5 game series era.

Can't wait for D-Will vs Boozer.

 

[The Midnight]

Man it's maddening watching Denver vs GSW.

Denver - who we got the better of in the Favors/Kanter for Dwill trade.

GSW - who shafted us for a pick and now made the playoffs.

We have a better trade than Denver, and we were supposed to have gotten the GSW pick - and yet we got shafted and now we're in limbo while they're battling it out on national TV.

KOC, Lindsey, Greg - I hope you guys are watching this in *pain* and do something about this over the offseason.

To rub salt into the wound, the Nets are ripping up Chicago right now...

 

[The Midnight]

Wow.. Nets put up 60 pts in the 1st half against Bulls... Nets with at-the-buzzer type shot to end the half.

 

[chawx]

Don't need to boycott. Just not that interested. The NBA has become almost unwatchable.... In large part because of poor and biased officiating. Almost like scripted pro wrestling.

I am sure I will feel better about it next fall, but for now, just lost interest.

This. The NBA is fake.

 

[Xsy]

I pretty much stream all my games anyway, so I haven't been doing the NBA any favors all season.

 

[The Midnight]

LOL.. this is true Karma

GSW tanked the whole of last season sitting out Curry & Lee..

Now that they're in the playoffs, Lee is out for real for the rest of the season:

DENVER – The Warriors learned Sunday that All-Star power forward David Lee will miss the rest of the season after suffering a torn muscle in his right hip in the fourth quarter of Game 1 against the Nuggets. A release from the team said an MRI confirmed that Lee had suffered “a complete tear of his right hip flexor.”

 

[Stoked]

I am not boycotting it but I am not really watching it either. I will probably tune in for a couple Memphis games and cheer them on but that is it. I can keep as up to date as i want to be via ESPN.

My playoff schedule:

The occasional OKC game because Kevin Durant is my favorite player to watch that's in the playoffs.

Any series that gets into game 6's or 7's.

 

[MoreFeasts]

Houston started badly, but has come back against okc. 33-36

 

[MoreFeasts]

if lin could make a shot they'd be up

 

[Jazz4ever]

Reality has set in, Houston getting annihilated by OKC.

 

[The Midnight]

Reality has set in, Houston getting annihilated by OKC.

Yeah, well Harden can't do everything. OKC has Westbrook, Durant and Ibaka.

HOU really only has Harden.

 

[reignman40]

Maybe it's a good thing we didn't get in. It would make last years sweep look like nothing. Maybe we would match up better with OKC but dang is Houston getting rocked.

 

[Getting Traded]

You can't blame Stern for the Jazz missing the playoffs -- they have only themselves and Corbin to blame.

 

[t.work]

Yeah, I'm not boycotting it but I highly doubt I tune into a single minute of Playoffs action this year. Just not interested.

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

Houston didn't even play Thomas Robinson a single minute. Wasn't he the 5th overall pick? If DutchJazzer was a Clutchfanz poster he would have started 8 threads by now.

 

[MoreFeasts]

Ref bias has set in, Houston getting annihilated by OKC.

fixed

Keep it up. Its Working.

SBD: NBA English-language TV ratings in the United States down 20% on TNT, 14% on ABC, 6% on ESPN, as compared to 2011-12 levels.


14% & 20% will certainily get Stern's attention.
