How about popularity, fan involvement, likability?
I don't.

Showtime Lakers = Lakers from 2000-today
Bird Celtics = current Celtics team
Bad Boys = Miami Heat
MJ Bulls = no comparison

If you want to talk about popularity, fan involvement, likability, and exciting go watch the Oklahoma Thunder play. They are one if not the most exciting and likable team in the NBA. And Kevin Durant is a star.

I could see something more like:

Showtime Lakers = Shaq and Kobe Lakers or Suns with Nash, Stoudemire, and Marion
Bird Celtics = Dallas Mavericks
Bad Boys = Miami Heat
MJ Bulls = Lakers post Shaq

At least give me some credit for trying :D

Seriously though the Showtime Lakers won 5 Championships which is the same that the Lakers from 2000-current have.

The book isn't written on the Heat yet but the villain role fits them.

And I absolutely stand by my statement in regards to the Thunder.

I think the game is as popular as ever but the number of strikes they've had and the economic forces have caused people not to care. The last time they had a strike eat into the season like this the NBA players were striking for the right to smoke dope. It took a long time for me to turn an NBA game on after that.

Interesting that there are nine pages of posts filled with people who don't care one bit about the NBA. For something so unworthy of attention, there seems to be quite a bit of attention being paid. I didn't realize the NBA was this polarizing, I just assumed people that don't like it simply disregard it entirely.

I think there are people who actively dislike it.

Pitt Gorilla 11-08-2011 09:46 PM

I miss it already. LOVE the NBA.

Saul Good 11-08-2011 09:46 PM

Is the WNBA on strike?

Mike in SW-MO 11-08-2011 10:03 PM

First thought from headline was that means 72 mil do miss it. Sounds pretty good for nba. Then saw another 12% had no opinion. Means only 36 mil care. That not so good for nba.

Dr. Johnny Fever 11-08-2011 10:07 PM

I can't say I actively miss it but I wouldn't mind seeing some games. It would be better than 99% of the other shit on tv. I like the stretch run and playoffs pretty well. If KC had a team I'd probably care more right now.
